Casa La Ciucola – Stone House in Tuscany with Pool

Casa La Ciucola is a charming Tuscan vacation home, part of a small historic property with a shared pool and private outdoor spaces. Surrounded by nature, it offers an authentic and relaxing stay in the medieval village of Raggiolo, in the Casentino Valley. The self-contained accommodations have been renovated in a way that respects tradition and sustainability, featuring exposed stone, wood, and a rustic atmosphere. The village is pedestrianized and offers an authentic experience, far from mass tourism. The space The apartment of about 70 square meters is very airy, on two floors and is perfect for both a family of five and for two couples. On the ground floor is a large open kitchen with dining area, fireplace, TV and double sofa bed, a double bedroom with private bathroom and a closet. The heating is underfloor. The rustic Tuscan-style kitchen was built by a local craftsman with chestnut wood recovered from the ancient floors, and is complete with high-quality dishes, fridge, oven, induction cooktop, dishwasher and espresso machine. The large room is furnished in an antique style, very bright and with panoramic views of the valley. On the first floor, which is accessed via a comfortable wooden staircase, we find the other double bedroom, a large bathroom and an attic used as a study. You can admire the sky from the skylight above the bed, and enjoy the fresh air that comes from the valley floor by opening the windows. During the renovation, the old cavities where swallows once nested were found and reopened. The courtyard in front of the front door is for exclusive use. You can use the large table with umbrella for breakfast in the cool of the morning or for a dinner under the stars. Guest access Guests can enjoy various common areas, including the large terraced garden typical of the area, the swimming pool, the hot tub area, the ping pong table, and a large pergola with a panoramic view, featuring a wooden table that can seat up to sixteen people. All outdoor areas are available for guests staying at the property. Small- and medium-sized pets are allowed, for a small additional fee. The area offers numerous opportunities for nature hikes, food and wine tastings, and visits to charming villages. Other things to note The area is entirely pedestrianized: cars must be left in the free municipal parking lots located outside the village. Parking lots are 150–250 meters from the property, depending on which one you use. We recommend using luggage trolleys; if needed, we will be happy to help guests. The village features ascents and descents with varying gradients, typical of its historical layout. For guests with reduced mobility, it is advisable to contact us before booking so that we can assess your needs together and agree on possible solutions. Accommodation tax: €3.00 per person per day (for the first 6 days, for guests aged 12 and over), to be paid upon arrival; not included in the rates. Registration Details IT051027B4C57OXSFG
