The villa lies in a quiet hill near Poppi village, 30 km to Arezzo and 50 km 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.

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.

FLORENCE, one of the the most beautiful city in the world, shows in every corner priceless treasures. An open-air museum with an incredible artistic and historical heritage. Florence is a city of art by definition. During the period of the Renaissance passed the great names of painting, sculpture and architecture. In Florence also born artists such as Giotto, Cimabue, Brunelleschi, Donatello, Botticelli, Masaccio, Verrocchio, Ghirlandaio, della Robbia and ending with LEONARDO da Vinci and MICHELANGELO. They lived in Florence with the greatest exponents of the poetry of the time, big names of literature such as Dante, Boccaccio, Gucciardini and Machiavelli. This predominance of art and poetry also meant the primacy of Tuscany between Florence and Italian dialects. Works of art created by artists more grandiose: the Galleria degli Uffizi, the Accademia Gallery, Palazzo Pitti, the Bargello National Museum and the Museums of San Marco are just a part of these treasures of art. Piazza della Signoria, one of the most elegant squares where there are the most impressive monuments, and Piazzale Michelangelo, which offers a breathtaking view over the city, are some charming places. Keepers of the jewels of the past, such as the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, the Basilica of Santa Croce, the church of Santa Maria Novella and the fascinating Medici Villas. AREZZO, was founded by an Etruscan settlement in the fourth century. B.C. The city retains a medieval structure characteristic of great artistic and historical value, a constant attraction for the beautiful works of art it contains. And 'it ideal not only for those who love art and culture, but also for those who love walking down old buildings. Furthermore, in the city takes place the famous medieval 'Giostra del Saracino'. Piazza Grande also known as Piazza Vasari, is among the most scenic and picturesque squares in Italy, site of the Giostra del Saracino and well-known antiques fair. This fair is held the first weekend of every month. Remember the cathedral (completed early '500) and S. Domenico church where inside, the center of the apse, you can see the huge painted crucifix, an early masterpiece by Cimabue (1260-65). In Arezzo was shot part of the film 'La vita è bella' by Roberto Benigni. SIENA, is one of the best preserved historical cities of Tuscany. Ancient medieval city built on three hills, is still surrounded by walls. The whole city of Siena, built around the Piazza del Campo, was conceived as a work of art that blends into the landscape of the Crete Senesi. To remember the Palio, traditional medieval horse race, is run around the Piazza del Campo each year. July 2 and August 16 are the dates when the Palio di Siena is held. The historic center of Siena since 1995 among the world heritage sites by UNESCO. Tuscany offers also some historical, well-mantained and very interesting villages as Cortona, S.Gemignano, Volterra and Monteriggioni. Land between Siena and Firenze is famous for the production of Chianti wine ( 'Chiantishire' ). Tuscany is also the land of the wines: Sassicaia, Ornellaia, Brunello di Montalcino and Nobile di Monte Pulciano. POPPI, is at the center of the Casentino valley, a valley among the most beautiful in Tuscany. It's a medieval walled city and at the top dominates the Castle of the Counts Guidi ( Conti Guidi ), the work of the famous family of architects Di Cambio, 'prototype' of the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence. Built in the thirteenth century, it is characterized by a façade of mullioned windows, the center of which comes off a high tower, and surrounded by a wall with battlements Guelfi and a wide moat. Thanks to constant restorations over the centuries, the castle of Poppi is currently in excellent condition. Inside, the Library Rilliana, full of hundreds of medieval manuscripts and incunabula. Another key element of importance is the chapel of the Counts with a fourteenth-century frescoes attributed to Taddeo Gaddi, a pupil of Giotto. An important event in Poppi, at the end of August: 'the Gusto of Guidi': The taste and selling exhibition of Tuscany wines and traditional and organic products of Casentino valley. With the opportunity to enter in the old cellars of Poppi, no longer used, but still with the old tools for the production of wine. The Golf course Casentino offers a relaxing view of the village of Poppi and Casentino Valley. Five minutes of driving are enough to get the golf course from my property. PARCO delle FORESTE CASENTINESI The Park stands out as one of the most prized forest areas in Europe. At the heart of the park are the Foreste Demaniali Casentinesi \[State Casentino forests\], within which can be found the Riserva Naturale Integrale (Integral Nature Reserve) of Sasso Fratino, founded in 1959. The territory also has towns and villages rich in history and artistic and architectural heritage, which present themselves to the visitor in a wonderful natural frame, rich in flora and fauna, including the most important population of the Apennine wolf, as well as the exceptional presence of five species of ungulates (mammals with hooves): wild boar, roe deer, fallow deer, common deer, and mouflon (mountain sheep). Inside the park there are two points of great interest and spiritual importance: the Sanctuary of La Verna and the Hermitage of Camaldoli. At La Verna St. Francis of Assisi had the stigmata. The protected area can be visited by pleasant excursions on foot, mountain bike, horseback along a path network of approximately 600 kilometres. Poppi has also a zoo, with local fauna, but not only.

The pool was refreshing and clean. Parking was easy. Stephania came to the villa to give us a cooking lesson, served and cleaned up. Perfect stay. Gratzie Gianfranco! ##### Marshall D.

The house and the pool are big and beautiful, and the view is superb ! The area is very quiet because there are no neighbors, so you can rest quietly. The host is very nice and very attentive, everything is really perfect ! We were ten friends eating on the terrace each evening, making home made pizza, and we did midnight-bath each day ;-) We went twice in Firenze and once in Arezzo to visit these beautiful cities. The holidays were so great.... I recommend Casa Fantone that is ideal for holidays with friends or family, so do not hesitate, it is probably the best place to be between Firenze and Arezzo ! ##### Sophie D. ### 10/10 Excellent #### greg h.

Our host/owner, Gianfranco, was so accommodating, and his response time was quick. He helped us find a driver for some trips that we did around Tuscany. He found us a wonderful chef that came to us twice for real Italian cooking classes. The house was spacious and fit our friends and family well. We brought our grandchildren and Gianfranco provided a crib & highchair. The property was absolutely beautiful & the history of the family is so interesting. We felt immersed in the Poppi culture, and the small shops in town welcomed us with open arms. The weather was a little colder than we expected so we needed layers in the morning and during the night. We made amazing memories and plan to return! Thank you Gianfranco and Poppi! ##### greg h.

He was there when he could help and gave us the privacy we wanted to at the rest of the time. The property has a lot of space a really nice view on the mountains and in the valley. It also offers a lot of activitys. There is a football field, a pool, table tennis, table football, a big kitchen, some fire places, a classic pizza oven build of stones and heated with fire and more. Nice supermarkets are reachable in 15 minutes by car. We are a group which can be loud some time. Because the house has no neigbors, we had no problem here. Gianfranco, thank you again! This is definitifely a recommandation. ##### Simon D.

The house was very beautiful in a traditional, classic style. Still very modern and comfortable! All bathrooms were perfectly renovated and beautiful! Everything was in very good condition and it was clean and functional. The view from the property is stunning, it is better than any photo can show! The facilities were very good, the pool was great, and we used the table tennis table and the football game a lot! Mostly we had the dinners at home, using the big bbq grill. We went out to a few local restaurants; Ristorante Torricella and Ristorante Park Hotel in Ponte a Poppi were we had very good pasta and meat. We also went a couple of times to a pizzeria in Ponte a Poppi. Very good pizza. Do not recall the name, but it was situated just opposite to the Agip station. We made a few trips to winemakers in the Chianti-district and also to Montalcino. Approx 1,5-2,5 hours by car. The owner, Gianfranco, and his wife gave us excellent service. Very helpful and kind! Thank you! /Families Gliori and Östling. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Svetlana G.

It was twelve of us ages between 7 and 70 and everyone had a brilliant time. We wished we spent more time just relaxing in the villa and the garden. The views are fantastic! There was plenty to do in the garden. Our kids have enjoyed using the table tennis, bar football, the football/basketball area and our son loved the swings. Everything was spotless clean in the house, even all the areas outside were very clean which we don't usually see in the villas. We loved sitting on the balcony for breakfast and admire the views, we also loved the fireplace. Gianfranco the owner was very helpful from the time we booked the villa all the way to the end. Nothing was trouble for him. He greeted us on our arrival and was very helpful every day, he organised the mini bus for us to go on the wine tour so our day went very smoothly. Gianfranco brought all the wood for the fireplace for us and also lovely vegetables from his garden. Two evenings we had Stefania (who was recommended by Gianfranco) cooking dinner for us. The food was delicious and it was plenty left for us to have for lunch and dinner the next day. We would definitely stay in that villa again if we come to this area. Thank you Gianfranco, Svetlana and family ##### Svetlana G. Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ulla-Britt Grøndal N.

Bedsteforældre, søn, svigerdatter og tre børnebørn. Stedet levede absolut op til forventningerne. Autentisk og charmerende hus med rigtig god indretning, et fantastisk udendørsområde, lækker pool og imponerende udsigt. Vi nød at lave dejlige måltider, som vi kunne spise med smuk udsigt over bjergene, børnene elskede poolen, og vi tog på ture i omegnen, som byder på idylliske landsbyer og uberørt natur. Arezzo er også et besøg værd. Man skal dog være opmærksom på, at det tager lang tid at køre ad de snoede veje. Ejeren var meget venlig og opmærksom, så vi kan absolut give stedet vores bedste anbefalinger. Det ville dog være rart med flere karklude og viskestykker. Tak til Gianfranco for en super oplevelse. ##### Ulla-Britt Grøndal N. Stayed 11 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Josef S.

A very kind man who provided a welcome basket of his own Olive oil and local wine. The property is excellent, the location and views superb and everything a group wanting to relax in Tuscany could ask for. If you want to walk in the area, the village of Quota with an excellently stocked local shop is 1.5 miles away and there are track through the valley to neighbouring villages if you want to go off the beaten track. The Town of Poppi is about 3.5 miles away and is well worth a visit, great local cafe's and stores in abundance. Poppi station will provide rail travel to Florence and beyond if you do not want to do too much driving so no excuses not to go and explore Tuscany. ##### Gordon T.

Wunderbares Haus und tolles Grundstück. Alles sehr urig, da es ein altes Bauernhaus ist. Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet und es gibt einen gemütlichen Grillplatz. Die Umgebung ist ruhig und landschaftlich toll. Die Dörfer und Städte in der näheren Umgebung sind auch sehr schön. Man kann auch prima wandern. Der Vermieter ist sehr nett.
