Location:
Situated on its own hillock and not overlooked by any near neighbours, Casella Pioppi overlooks its own olive grove of 250+ olive trees and is surrounded by its own 11 hectares (25 Acres) and so is a haven of peace and tranquility. As one Australian was heard to say on the first morning of his stay, when calling back to a friend in Australia ' I've died and gone to Heaven'!!
Facilities:
Casella Pioppi is the ideal location for the young at heart and stressed creative person as we have a table tennis table, badmington net suspended between two old olive trees, boules, a form of deck quoits. Relax in the solar heated pool or just sketch the view: or simply sit under an olive tree and catch up on the latest bestseller! For those who want to get out and play golf, there are 3 golf courses within 40 minutes. There is a tennis court which can be booked down in Mercatale which is 10 minutes away.
Close to all the History of the region:
Situated just 2 to 3 kilometres below the ancient (parts date to Etruscan times) village of Preggio, Casella Pioppi is the ideal launching pad to visits to Cortona, Citta Di Castello, San Sepulchro, Assisi, Gubbio, Todi, Florence and even Rome is only two hours away by train or two and a half by car.
