Casa Castagna

Holiday Rental Description

Nothing says ‘la dolce vita’ quite like this authentic Italian villa, which you’ll find tucked away on the outskirts of Castiglion Fiorentino. Nestled deep in the heart of the Tuscan countryside, this rustic home dates back to the 17th century, so it’s no wonder that stepping inside feels like travelling back in time. Don’t worry though – there are plenty of modern amenities on-site to make your stay as comfortable as possible, so whether you need to join a last-minute Zoom meeting or want to spend the evening curled up in front of the TV, this Italian abode has got you covered.

However you plan to spend your day, we’d recommend starting your morning with a leisurely coffee in the wooded garden, where you’ll be able to feast on views of the verdant Tuscan hills. When you’re finished, grab your swimming costume and take a dip in the shimmering infinity pool, or get dressed and wander down to the grocery store – just a ten-minute walk away – to pick up some fresh ingredients for lunch. If you fancy doing some sightseeing, it’s an eight-minute drive – or forty-five-minute walk – to Castiglion Fiorentino, the perfect place to learn more about the region’s rich history. When you’ve had your fill of ancient attractions – think the Cassero fortress and Pinacoteca Comunale – grab a bite to eat in one of the city’s pizzerias or head home and let yourself drift off in front of the villa’s gorgeous stone fireplace. Bliss.
