With a sweeping view from 500 meters above sea level, the Casa Nova farm
sits on a hill dominating the valley of the fifteenth-century Castle of
Montepò. In the heart of the Tuscan Maremma, among ancient oak
woods, pastures, vineyards and olive trees, the area remains unspoilt,
untouched, and rich in natural beauties and in historical and archeological
sites.
Gardens just outside the house creates plotches of color that change
with each season. A large swimming pool (100 square metres) is available
for guests from June up to September.
The farm has been restored recently. What had once been a stable for
cows and sheep has been trasformed into a large hall that is both rustic
and refined. It has a huge fireplace and a grand piano.
The space where fodder was once cut up has become a warm, bright kitchen.
The 50-hectare farm (about 123 acres) operates with the methods of organic
farming and its activities are: horse breeding and production of grain,
wine, and olive oil, as well as growing fruit and vegetables for family
and guests.
Our Riding Centre is definetely closed. It is possible to ride
10 Km away from here, at the Antico Casale di Scansano.
