Villa Romena

Villa Romena is a splendid ancient stone farmhouse located on the top of a hill with spectacular 360-degree panoramic views.
Recently restored with art and passion, brought back to life respecting its original characteristics and masterfully turned into a splendid and unique holiday home with private pool ideal for large groups.

The property is located within a large private area on the green hills of the Casentino Forest National Park between Florence and Arezzo, just 5 minutes drive from Poppi, a splendid medieval town considered one of the most beautiful ancient villages in Italy.

The extensive outdoor area (approx. three and a half hectares) that surrounds the villa is completely fenced and maintained with great care. There are various corners perfect for every need, from the children’s playground to the barbecue area & the large gazebo for outdoor dining, the stunning swimming pool area and various panoramic terraces.
The highlight of the place is undoubtedly the spectacular crescent-shaped swimming pool (size 7×15 m, depth 0,30 – 1.55 m / open April – October / external shower). It is well exposed to the sun, secluded and with breathtaking views of the valley and hills below dotted with various villages similar to herds of grazing sheep.
