Authentic and awesome, Casa Carmina is a lovely farmhouse that overlooks the Arno Valley. Restored to perfection to bring back its delicate grace, the vacation farmhouse is a great place as a starting point to discover the real Tuscan way of life and to explore the amazing wonders of Florence and her colorful countryside.
Structured with the essence of comfort and style, Casa Carmina can accommodate 8-12 people. The entrance opens out with a small sitting room decorated elegantly with a pull-out bed. The farmhouse interiors evolve with a tastefully decorated large open living-dining room with high ceilings and a fireplace. There are also two double bedrooms with a elegant décor and a full bathroom with modern amenities. The stairs lead up to a single walk-through bedroom, a full bathroom, a separate twin room (with ensuite WC) and a third, very large well decorated double bedroom with an additional single bed. There is a fully equipped appealing Tuscan country style kitchen. The farmhouse has retained its original wooden beams, terracotta floors and a beautiful fireplace. It is beautifully furnished with typical Tuscan furnishing of fine quality. The pool area has lounges, a pergola and chairs for relaxing.
Casa Carmina has well manicured refreshing gardens and a loggia and is surrounded by views of the spectacular hills and the lovely countryside. The holiday farmhouse has typical Tuscan furnishing of fine quality, a fully fenced garden and pool area where guests can relax and have a cool swim. The holiday farmhouse also offers the opportunity to enjoy al fresco dining with the spectacular scenery of a private forest surrounded by olive groves, lush vineyards and stately cypress trees.
Casa Carmina is situated in a convenient location and is also accessible to public transport and all shops being just 12 minutes from the center of Florence.
The lovely Casa Carmina is very close to the local restaurants which are known to be the best in Italy. Guests staying at the holiday farmhouse can enjoy memorable dining experiences at these places. Besides tasting the traditional cuisine of Tuscany, guests can explore the private forest or discover the local attractions. It is wonderful to stroll down in the early morning sunlight and buy your fresh bread or the hot morning cappuccino and feel like a local. The farmhouse lends its warm ambience to your holiday where you can just sit back at the farmhouse and sip a glass of our wine and absorb the breathtaking countryside view.
The owners who live close by would be glad to help you with reservations and offer suggestions, saving your valuable vacation time.
