Description

RECEPTIVE STRUCTURE (CIR CODE: 051039AAT0023). Casa al Fiume is a typical rural building, once the barn belonging to the main farmhouse whose origins date back to the early nineteenth century. The recent restructuring, done by the current owners according to the dictates of local tradition and in respect of the landscape and environmental characteristics, has produced a welcoming refuge for lovers of nature in her purest and simplest essence. The house, just a few metres from the main road, is immersed in the green countryside in an enchanted atmosphere against the backdrop of natural and extraordinary scenery, enriched by a thick woodland vegetation and naturally bounded by the river Ciuffenna surrounding the property. In this charming and intimate setting guests can enjoy a comfortable holiday in harmony with the surrounding landscape, enfolded in a peaceful atmosphere but enlivened by the gentle sounds of nature. Casa del Fiume is an excellent departure point for guests to visit the magnificent cultural and artistic heritage of the main towns of Tuscany, like Siena, Florence and Arezzo. They can also make daily trips to the beautiful towns in the vicinity - Gaiole or Radda along the Chianti wine route, Montepulciano, Cortona, Pienza, San Gimignano and many others:all this creating a unique, comprehensive and unforgettable experience. The house is located approximately 50 metres from that of the owners who can be a useful point of reference for guests to whom, however, complete privacy is guaranteed.
