The Relais il Fienile is situated in an exceptionally beautiful part of the Casentino, about 550 metres above sea level with a magnificent view of the massifs of the Pratomagno and Alpe di Catenaia and of the upper valley of the Arno.
The Relais il Fienile is about 5 km from the historic town of Bibbiena, on the road leading to the medieval village of Gressa, in an ideal spot, not just for its magnificent panoramic position, a typical feature of barns, but also for its proximity to many centres of historical, artistic, scenic and religious interest: 10 km (10 min.) from Poppi, a beautiful little town of particular interest by virtue of the famous castle of the Conti Guidi, one of Tuscany's best conserved medieval buildings. 15 km (15 min.) from the castle and Romanesque church of Romena (pictured below). 18 km (30 min.) from the sanctuary of La Verna, a Franciscan monastery par excellence and an object of constant pilgrimage, which houses the world's finest majolica, fashioned by the hands of the Della Robbia family.
In no time at all (half an hour at the most) other highly interesting places are within reach: Arezzo, with its masterpieces by Piero della Francesca and Cimabue; the historic villages of Pratovecchio and Stia, with its thermal waters, and the convent and sacred hermitage of Camaldoli. For sports lovers, the immediate surroundings offer: a livery stable with a riding school and pony trekking facilities (1 km).
A lake for fishing (1 km). Casentino Golf Club at Poppi (10 km). Tennis courts and an indoor swimming pool at Bibbiena. The Relais il Fienile, moreover, lies on the edge of the Parco Nazionale delle Foreste Casentinesi, the most extensive virgin forest in Italy. |
