Founded
Agriturismo Poppiena is a charming rural hamlet built on a former Camaldolese monastery, on the edge of the Casentino National Forest. Family-run, in a panoramic position above Pratovecchio, halfway between Arezzo and Florence.
The stone buildings were created from the renovation of an ancient farmstead using traditional Tuscan materials. The limited number of houses guarantees absolute privacy for all guests.
