Description Farm-house Relais Il Fienile
The relais il fienile is elegant, welcoming and environment-friendly, an ideal base for those seeking peace, good taste and comfort but wishing also to explore the many - and as yet largely undiscovered - riches offered by the casentino: scenery, touring and trekking, history, religion, art, artisan work, and shopping. The building (an old barn restructured with traditional materials - local stone, exposed wooden beams, florentine terracotta) is surrounded by a green, tree-lined park, a swimming pool, a large car-park, and several acres of estate. On the ground floor there are the reception rooms (a portico, sitting rooms for chatting or simply relaxing in, a dining and breakfast room). On the other floors there are the guests' bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, and each tastefully and simply decorated. The relais il fienile follows a formula akin to that of the french relais and the english country house. A formula consisting of five basic ingredients: character, courtesy, calm, charm, cuisine. In an environment where special attention is given to service and hospitality, the owners live in the house alongside their guests, serving a breakfast of homemade produce and, in august, dining at a «table d'hôte» - an opportunity for pleasurable conversation. The relais il fienile is therefore the ideal place for anyone seeking quiet and discreet hospitality, a charming atmosphere, quality comfort in a family setting and at a particularly favourable price.
The Relais il Fienile has a privileged position in the Casentino landscape, about 550 m a.s.l. with a beautiful view of the massive Pratomagno and Alpe di Catenaia and the upper Arno’s valley. Just 5 minutes from downtown Bibbiena, in favorable position for excursions throughout Tuscany. Close by are the sanctuary of La Verna, Franciscan place in which houses the most beautiful robbiane tiles of the world, or Poppi famous for its castle, or the beautiful Romanesque church of Romena, nonetheless Arezzo, Florence and Arezzo reachable in one hour. In addition, the Relais il Fienile skirts the Casentino National Park, famous for its vastness and the ancient virgin forests and its variegated fauna.
