The house is 3km from the village of Cardoso, which is a really beautiful olde worlde village perched on a hillside and  with amazing views at every turn. Here there are regular summer festas, and there is also a popular traditional Tuscan Restaurant  and basic shop.
There is also a restaurant 1.5km in the other direction ,and the house is only a few minutes drive from a popular lakeside restaurant too which does great fish in the evenings.
For a full food shop, then the hypermarket in Gallicano is less than a 10 min drive.
