Lovely walks to nearby National park, swimming either in the pool ( 2 fields away on edge of nearest village) or in the River Arno, barbecues on the huge lavender lined terrace running the length of the house, eating at the marble table ( seats 10+) or in one of a choice of restaurants, allow one to have a relaxing and entertaining break. Catered meals and a taxi service can be supplied on request. Table tennis under the oak tree. During the colder months, board games, good supply of books, DVDs, wood fires. In spring birdwatching (46 varieties of bird listed in one week) with occasional visits to the fields by wild boar and deer. Nightingales fireflies, shooting stars can make for a magical experience. Cherries, plums, figs in season. 9 hole golf course.

Good Fortune

Bonners London, England
Review Submitted: May 14, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
I had the good fortune to spend five days at the end of April at Casa Ferali. It had been ten years since my last visit to the Poppi area and I confess I had forgotten just how stunningly beautiful it is. The house, nestled in the hills, has wonderful views of Poppi and the surrounding countryside. It is spacious and well appointed with large terraces, which are ideal for sunny days and cool evenings. Poppi is close by with shops, restaurants and, of course, the Castle. Camoldoli, with it's ancient monastery, is just twenty minutes away by car. Or, for those who take their walking seriously, a perfect destination. The woods and fields abound with birdlife and, best of all, the Nightingales sing all night long. I can't wait to go back.

Review Submitted: May 13, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
The farmhouse has a wonderful view of Poppi and is surrounded by fields, trees, deer, birds. A wonderful marble table encourages long meals outside on the terrace, and is an ideal place for reading/writing and other non physically demanding pursuits. Apart from this, the hills, woods and fields beckon and, if you have a car, travel is possible much further afield (also by train from Poppi railway station to, for example, Florence). No shortage of good restaurants. Owner very friendly and helpful. Well maintained house with plenty of facilities. We had a very enjoyable stay.
