Photos and Description of the Poppi vacation villa rental

Casa Fantone is a large detached Tuscan farmhouse, 300 years old, remodelled and updated with a wide private garden of 5 hectares and a private pool of 6 x 12 meters. The villa lies in a quiet hill near Poppi village, 30 km to Arezzo and 50 to Florence, and it has a good level of furniture. The villa has modern kitchen and bathroom facilities, but it still gives one the feeling of stepping back in history. The villa, made by stones, is exposed to the sun and it has a fantastic view on the Casentino valley. Absolute privacy and a maximum of security are guaranteed, also because the property is fenced in and the access is possible only through an automatic gate. A typical Tuscan terrace close to the kitchen can be an opportunity to have your breakfast or to drink a glass of Chianti with your friends looking down at the beautiful valley. In the terrace you will also discover an ancient baking oven which could hold at least 20 pizzas at a time. If only those walls could talk!
