Tips from owner:
If you want a splendid holiday, if you want to enjoy the simplicity of peasant life as it once was in a setting created by people who themselves love nature, we have found the place for you: Casentino, one of the most beautiful valleys not only in Tuscany, but in Italy, situated south of Florence and north of Arezzo. This is the birthplace of the Arno, which runs through the valley, embroidering it with meanders, waterfalls and wider stretches where the water seems reluctant to leave it. A lot of Italian history –epic, literary and mystical – has been written in the valley. A handful of names, which nonetheless fill hundreds of pages of the encyclopedias. the great sculptor and painter Michelangelo Buonarroti – noble son of the valley –Paolo Uccello and Giovanni Maria Bibiena; Dante Alighieri who came here first as a young Guelf knight at the battle of Campaldino, then as a wandering exile; Saint Francis, who ascended the mountain of La Verna, where he founded the sanctuary that he loved above all others; Saint Romualdo, founder of the hermitage of Camaldoli, where his sole companions were the sun and the sound of the wind in the trees of surrounding forest. A discerning observer will be able to discover the many Romanesque churches, abbeys and sanctuaries of Casentino, all of which evoke the . valley’s thousand–year history. Fattoria di , agricultural holidays farm, 550 metres above sea level, is immersed in this world of ancient civilization and natural beauty, amid sunflower and wheat fields. It is located at Poppi, at the gateway to the National Park of the Casentino, Mount Falterona and Campigna Forest, in a beautiful panoramic position, overlooking the splendid valley and particularly the famous Castle of the Conti Guidi.
