Area Information: Arezzo is still today one of the charming old Tuscan cities, with elegant shops at its medieval city centre. Well prepared for tourism, Arezzo is the city of goldsmiths and antique dealers; every first weekend of the month the probably biggest antique market in Tuscany takes place on the Piazza Grande and the famous arcades. Dealers and clients come from everywhere. Maybe you should also consider to visit the picturesque old village of Anghiari not far from Arezzo.
The Casentino with its extended forests is probably one of the most beautiful areas of Tuscany. Its valley with the Arno river is situated like an amphitheatre amidst the mountains some of which truly impressive. The Casentino is renowned for its many picturesque medieval Borghi and strongly defended castles, the best preserved in Tuscany to be found at Poppi. Outstanding pieces of craftsmanship and art are produced here. Peace and tranquility still today are the main characteristics of life rhythm.
Vehicles: Due to the fact that many properties in this area can be accessed only by unsealed roads and driveways, we advise people intending to take a sports or low-slung car on holiday, to check with us first whether the access to the property allows for such a car. We advise against the use of vans and minibuses. Please always check with us at the time of booking if you are planning to use this type of vehicle when staying at a property in this area.
Swimming: If your rental period is outside the period May 15th to September 30th, please check with us that the pool can be opened. Swimming pools are not enclosed with fences and there are no lifeguards. Clients’ use of the swimming pool is at their own risk.
Heating: Usage will be metered throughout your stay and you will be charged accordingly. Charges must be paid directly on the spot to the owner or his/her representative before departing. Please note that heating in Italy, when not subject to restrictions by the local Government, is more expensive compared to other countries. If you look for a property in low season, make sure to ask for an estimate of the heating cost. You may be asked to make a supplementary deposit for heating expenses.
Water and Electricity: Please note that most of the properties in our portfolio are not the typical purpose-built Mediterranean holiday villas. Most are converted farmhouses or former manor houses, full of character and history. Water shortages do occur; please use it sparingly during the summer months. At the same time, Italy is probably one of the few countries in the world where the government has introduced a system of electricity limitators to contain the national consumption. This means you must be careful when using more than one appliance at once because the limitator will shut the electricity off.
Internet Connection: Many of our properties have an internet connection. From our experience, when a connection is interrupted due to technical reasons beyond our control, it is unfortunately very difficult, despite our efforts, to receive immediate assistance from some of the internet providers operating in Italy. We therefore strongly suggest that those who need to access their emails should bring their own BlackBerry, or a similar portable device. Please note that in any case we cannot accept responsibility for lack of these services.
