About this property

Beautiful private villa for 10 guests with WIFI, private pool, TV, terrace, pets allowed and par...

Once you arrive at Podere Varlunga, set in a small but splendid corner of the valley, you will dominate the whole of the Casentino, the ancient valley formed by the river Arno and bordered by the rugged foothills of Pratomagno and the Alpe di Catenaia.
From here, in a short time, you can decide whether to visit the most important historical centres of the valley, the imposing castles built to defend the territory, or the evocative places dear to Christianity such as the Abbey of Vallombrosa, the Hermitage of Camaldoli and the Sanctuary of La Verna. Places immersed in remote atmospheres that will allow you to spend memorable days discovering the past.
At the same time, the villa is equidistant from two of the most important centres in Tuscany, Florence and Arezzo (50 km). The small village of Borgo alla Collina is less than 1 km away and can be reached by a short walk.
The villa has a large, completely fenced green area, a private panoramic swimming pool (size m. 10x5 -depth m. 1,20-1,50 - open from 01st May to 30th September) which is also fenced, table tennis and a swing. Podere Varlunga is your ideal destination if you’re on holiday with your children.
The villa is well furnished and equipped, but without a doubt the covered porch with typical wooden and wrought iron furniture is the favourite space of our guests. On summer evenings, with the pool fully lit up at night, it is certainly here that you can enjoy the coolness of the valley, a good Tuscan dinner and a bottle of wine.
For nature lovers and for the enjoyment of your children, it is impossible to miss an excursion to discover the natural wonders of the Casentino Forest Park.

Review for stay from 18 September 2022 to 27 September 2022
We have visited this beautiful place in September ‘22, the area is lovely, house beautifully arranged in a Tuscan style, swimming poll is very clean and comfortable. The property is big and calm, you feel like there’s nobody else in the world, but at the same time it’s a five minute walk to a nearby shop. Nearby you will find also a very nice village - Poppi with a beautiful castel and nice cafeterias/ restaurants. 30 min drive there is a beautiful winery Castel de Nipozzano where you can have a tour around and degustation. I do truly recommend this place if you really want to rest. Ewa

Wie schon viele Jahre zuvor, kommen wir immer wieder gerne in's Podere Varlunga. Es gibt nichts schöneres als vom Pool aus die wunderbare Aussicht zu genießen. Für uns ist es das perfekte Ferienhaus, mit super netten Eigentümern, die das Haus picobello in Ordnung halten. Da das Grundstück komplett eingezäunt ist, ist es auch für unseren Hund hier sicher. Wir können das Haus uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen. [English translation courtesy of Easy Reserve] As many years before, we always enjoy coming back to Podere Varlunga. There is nothing better than enjoying the wonderful view from the pool. For us, it is the perfect holiday home, with super nice owners who keep the house in picobello order. Since the property is completely fenced in, it is also safe for our dog here. We can recommend the house without hesitation.

Review for stay from 04 June 2022 to 11 June 2022
Wonderful house, beautiful and really big garden area and a perfect swimming pool. Very friendly owners who provided good advices for activities. We spend one week in the house and really enjoyed it. It is perfect for two families as 2 bedrooms and a bathroom are on first floor and the other two bedrooms and bathroom on the second floor, so that everyone has its private area. Also staying there with a dog was easy, as there is lots of space in the garden and everything ist sourounded with a fence. We will definetly book that house again.

Review for stay from 07 August 2021 to 21 August 2021
Ein sehr schönes Haus, mit landesüblichen Möbeln ausgestattet. Für einen Familienurlaub mit Hund wunderbar geeignet, denn das Grundstück ist rundum eingezäunt. Der Pool ist schön groß und toll am Hang gelegen, deshalb hat man von dort einen super Ausblick. Es sind sehr freundliche und hilfsbereite Vermieter. Wir kommen schon mehrere Jahre hierher, und freuen uns schon wieder auf den nächsten Urlaub.

Wie bereits mehrere Jahre haben wir auch dieses Jahr unseren Sommerurlaub im Podere Varlunga verbracht. Auch wenn es diesmal ein etwas anderer Urlaub war, bedingt durch Covid 19, haben wir uns hier wieder sehr wohl gefühlt. Der schöne große Pool mit dem grandiosen Ausblick lädt zum entspannen ein. Die Besitzer sind super freundliche, nette Menschen. Das Grundstück ist sehr gepflegt und der Pool wird täglich gereinigt. Im Haus ist alles vorhanden was man für einen schönen Urlaub benötigt. Auch unser kleiner Hund fühlt sich hier sehr wohl, da das Grundstück komplett eingezäunt ist. Wir kommen gerne wieder. [English translation courtesy of Easy Reserve] As for several years, we spent our summer vacation in Podere Varlunga this year. Even if it was a slightly different holiday this time, due to Covid 19, we felt very comfortable again here. The beautiful large pool with the magnificent view invites you to relax. The owners are super friendly, nice people. The property is very well maintained and the pool is cleaned daily. Everything you need for a great vacation is available in the house. Our little dog also feels very comfortable here, as the property is completely fenced. We would love to come back.
