Farmhouses

Location

The country house is situated near Rassina (Arezzo), in Casentino.

Casentino is the name of a region stretching in south-eastern Tuscany between the plain of Arezzo, the Pratomagno and the Alpe di Catenaia. The whole region is rich in luxuriant forests, which makes it the ideal destination for those who want to relax with long hikes in pure nature. On Mount Falterona, in the National Park of Casentino Forests, Mount Falterona and Campigna, there are the springs of Arno, the most important Tuscan river.

Casentino is not only a natural oasis; it is also an oasis of history and spirituality: in fact, the region is scattered with castles and medieval hamlets and town - such as the castles of Romena and Poppi -, churches, and sanctuaries - the most famous being that of La Verna, where Saint Francis of Assisi received his stigmata.
