Casa al Bosco

Here the Cassioli family will welcome you with genuine warmth and old world charm, is the ideal place for anyone wishing to spend a vacation among nature, art and serenity.

This is an elegant house restored in the second half of the 1800s. It is situated in a property of approximately 12 hectares where there are olive trees and a vineyard from which an excellent Chianti wine (D.O.C.G.) and the famous Nobile di Montepulciano (D.O.C.G.) wine are made. Recent restoration (followed personally by Mrs. Franca and by the architect Tamara Martellini from Florence), was carried out with the idea maintaining of the original fascination of the antique dwelling. For this reason all the architectonic additions done to the house after its first construction were demolished.

The building was home to a farming family in the 70s and has now become a holiday home structure with 4 comfortable bedrooms and a suite, all elegantly furnished in classic Tuscan style with antique furniture restored according to tradition, iron wrought beds and exquisite armchairs.
Every room is enriched with mirrors, pictures, prints and flower compositions and importance is given to all little details. A magnificent external staircase leads to the loggia where our guests have access to a charming living room, in which a crackling fire warms the environment.
The external part of the building is in pink brick and is shaded thanks to pine trees and old cypress trees which are displayed in a manner as if to crown an old well in brick and stone brought back to its original splendour and situated right in the middle of the court yard. In the large garden which surrounds the house there is a swimming pool which is enclosed by evergreen hedges and cypress trees. It is a place where peace and silence reign and where it is possible to get away from stress for a few days and to live a holiday immersed in Nature.

During the warmer months one could have their breakfast in the garden amid colourful natural foliage or take pleasant walks in the country.
