AGRITURISMO
LA CASACCIA
Set on a
low hill in the heart of the Tuscan countryside
and surrounded by olive groves and vineyards,
"La Casaccia" is a small medieval
farm settlement recently restored to preserve
its 18th century Florentine architecture and
converted into 12 apartments to welcome those
who wish to spend a relaxing holiday in Tuscany
getting in touch with nature. The accommodation
is only a kilometre from Montaione (which can
be reached on foot if necessary), a small village
in the province of Florence rich in history,
its ancient origins confirmed by the many Etruscan
and Roman finds discovered locally; its hilltop
position (350 metres a.s.l.) means that the
farm enjoys a lovely climate and a beautiful
view of the surrounding countryside.
The central position
of our accommodation in Tuscany, with roads
winding through gentle hills covered in vineyards
and olive groves, means that art lovers and
culture vultures can easily reach Tuscany’s
great art centres with Florence, Siena, Lucca
and Pisa only 50 km away. San Gimignano is a
15-minute drive away and Volterra can be reached
in half an hour.
Accommodation in Tuscany
"La Casaccia" is the perfect place
for a holiday in Tuscany all year round because
each season has a wealth of things to offer.
A spring holiday with its bright colours, lovely
flowers and fragrances allows you to experience
nature waking up again, a summer holiday with
the hot sun embracing your limbs fills you with
energy, an autumn holiday will make you marvel
at the rich colours, the delicious smell of
must turning into Chianti and the winter will
allow you to experience the pleasure of living
in a cosy apartment with wooden beams and terracotta
tiling.
The welcoming functional
apartments are furnished in classic Tuscan style
and have well-equipped kitchens that will allow
you to prepare even the most elaborate dishes
of the Tuscan cuisine if you wish.
There is a beautiful
big swimming pool (25x5 m.) where you can do
lengths or have a refreshing dip. If you have
children they’ll enjoy playing in the smaller
pool (10 x 5m) which has a separate section
for toddlers so you can enjoy your holiday in
peace. If you prefer keeping cool to sunbathing
you're in the right place because our accommodation
in Tuscany is surrounded by big shady trees.
Guests can use the barbecues or enjoy al fresco
meals while admiring the wonderful sunsets over
the Tuscan hills or the spectacular view of
the Chianti hills.
If you want an active
holiday you can go trekking on the many trails
in the surrounding countryside or take place
in group treks organised once or twice a week.
Golf lovers can also practice their favourite
sport because La Casaccia has an arrangement
with the local Castelfalfi golf club (8 km away
from the accommodation) with discounts and reductions
for the farm’s guests.
There is a riding school
only a kilometre away and there are also horse
trekking sessions (half or whole day with al
fresco lunch) allowing you to enjoy the pleasures
that the Tuscan countryside has to offer. Those
wishing to play tennis have only to go to Montaione
where there is a lovely tennis court that is
covered during the autumn/winter season making
it suitable for use all year round. Guests are
welcome to use the ping-pong table in the farm
garden.
The old cellar has been
converted into a lovely room where guests can
taste typical Tuscan wines and local products.
