Rustico Poli
Description
Rustico Poli is a beautifully restored Tuscan farmhouse with a private pool, fully fenced garden, and sweeping views across the Garfagnana valley. Full of original character and wonderfully peaceful, it sits in open countryside yet is ideally placed for exploring - less than a 5-minute drive from the lively market town of Castelnuovo, and within walking distance of a good local restaurant.
Surrounded by farmland and positioned on a hillside overlooking the green Garfagnana landscape, this spacious detached home offers the best of both worlds: tranquillity and easy access to facilities. Castelnuovo (2.5km) provides a supermarket, cafés, traditional restaurants, shops, bars, and a train station for car-free days out, along with its famous Thursday market.
With 5 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, including 3 en-suite, Rustico Poli is perfect for larger families or groups. The independent ground-floor bedroom and bathroom offer ideal privacy for anyone wanting their own space.

"We had a wonderful time in this charming house in Tuscany. The
house is a bit older, but that's exactly what gives it its special
Tuscan charm. The large pool invites you to relax and offers
perfect refreshment on hot days. A real highlight is the pizza oven
in the outdoor area - definitely give it a try, it's worth
it!
The hostess is a warm-hearted soul, always available and takes care
of everything with love. The location is a bit away from the larger
towns, but we really enjoyed that: the drives there offer
breathtaking views of the beautiful landscape. There's also
everything you need nearby: you can shop in the village down the
hill, and the restaurant up the hill is absolutely
recommendable.
We can wholeheartedly recommend this house to anyone looking for
peace, Tuscan flair, and heartfelt hospitality!"

Arrival date: 13 July, 2024.
Very quiet, idyllic holiday home just outside Castelnuovo di Garfagnana (7 min. By car) We spent a wonderful week at Casa Poli and can only warmly recommend it. Ideal for two to three families. The house is well equipped and has everything you need. The pool is big and clean. Thank you very much for the great time.
