Located in the Casentino region of Tuscany, this property is located 800 meters from a couple of food shops and a bakery. Just two kilometers away is the town of Santa Mama where you’ll find a market, pizzerias, post office, bank, and gas station. The towns of Poppi, Bibbiena, Pratovecchio, and Stia are interesting villages to visit in the area. Arezzo is a much larger town located about 24 kilometers from the property and is considered one of the most important Etruscan cities. Arezzo is home to the renowned medieval square, The Piazza Grande, which features thirteenth-sixteenth century Romanesque architecture with the Episcopal Palace, and the Palace of the Lay Fraternity. Also in the area are several gothic churches, including the Cathedral of San Donato, as well as medieval and contemporary museums. It was also a filming location for the movie, Life is Beautiful. If you decide to vacation during the summer, annual festivals are a great way to learn more about the history and culture of Italy. The Joust of the Saracens is celebrated every June and September and the popular music festival is celebrated each July. A day trip to Cortona by car, and Florence by train (from Arezzo) are very worthwhile excursions. Florence: 95 km Siena: 53 km Arezzo: 24 km Santa Mama: 2 km Shops, bakery: 800 meters
