The furniture perfectly matches classic Tuscan-style features, such as cotto floors and ceilings with exposed wooden beams, as well as all modern conveniences, such as Sat-TV and free wi-fi internet connection, for a really unforgettable stay in Tuscany.
The holiday apartments at farmhouse Il CampoGrande are surrounded by a huge neat garden equipped with tables and chairs, where our guests can pleasantly spend their days and have lunch or dinner in the open air amid peaceful nature.

So choose Il CampoGrande to spend amazing holidays in Tuscany with your cat or dog. Guests will also have a private parking area with four covered parking spaces at their disposal.
Activities
The farm holiday business started in 2000 and, despite the initial worries to run a totally new business and to comply with the complicated bureaucracy, the Giusti family decided to name its farmhouse “Il CampoGrande” after the plot of land where the manor house and the farm house have been built because in the past is was a common practice to give fields a nickname to identify them. In fact the name “CampoGrande” refers to the whole geographical area, but it has always been used to identify our estate.
Thanks to its enviable location, during the summer it is possible to go for a walk or for a mountain bike ride. You can buy at the farm a textbook showing eight mountain bike routes including some brief historical information of the picturesque spots and villages on the Valle di Chio, as well as distances, drinking water fountains and level of difficulty. The country house does not have any bikes, but they can be easily rented in Castiglion Fiorentino.
Upon request we can prepare traditional breakfast, lunch and dinner by using our organic and natural products coming from our farm and organize enjoyable cooking classes where you will learn how to make delicious wood-fired pizza and hand-made pasta dressed with traditional sauces of the Tuscan cuisine.
We recommend you to book your farm holiday activities in advance and to contact us to know prices and availability. We are waiting for you to stay and enjoy an unforgettable farm holiday at CampoGrande!
