Location
The farmhouse stands in panoramic position on the hills of Casentino, near Subbiano.
Subbiano is the first town along the left bank of the River Arno going up the valley of Casentino. The village in the province of Arezzo is located in an area that has been inhabited since 3000 BC, when there lived tribes of farmers and cattle-breeders, as the items found during archaeological diggings in the Alpe di Catenaia demonstrate.
The ideal departure point for visiting the nearby Park of Casentino Forests and the sanctuary of La Verna, Subbiano still features a medieval castle that commands the river and a Longobard tower. The 13th-century church of Santa Maria della Visitazione, the Ducci palace and the palace of the Podestà are worth a visit, as well.
Description
The beautiful stone farmhouse features some elements typical of the Tuscan country buildings, such as beamed ceilings and terracotta-tiled floors, and is surrounded by a wide fully fenced garden furnished with a hammock and a table and chairs for guests to have their meals in the open air.
The private swimming pool (10x5 m; depth: 1.50 m) lies just a few metres from the house.
A masonry barbecue is at guests' disposal.
