Tuscany apartments for rent in a charming village near Arezzo - Italy

Here we are in 'Poggio di Loro'. This knoll which is part of the 'Prato Magno' is on the Tuscan Apennines. Charming vista of stone steps adorned with plants, aromatic herbs, flowers of many colors rising and falling intertwines with the carefully sculptured iron wrought railings; and the houses with their windows angled just so; in that way they let you see their

beautiful ceilings of wooden refters and bricks. As if witnessing a bygone era we find, as we walk, a large oven which is still used today. Since Poggio is at 650 mts over the sea level the entire area is surrounded by Chesnut, Cypress, Pine and Oak trees punctured by clearing that offer unforgetable views of the Prato Magno and of the Gigantic cross that crowns it. Indeed there even are paths that will take to the top for those that so desire. The Summer days are celebrated by feasts in outdoor places organized by the local shopkeeper and a group of people that have in theris hearts this wonderful village. This is the context in which a big old structure has been renovated with expert attention to detail.
