“Places off the tourist track can be a pleasant surprise!”

We give You our warm welcome to San Polo, a tiny village with an ancient history, part of the small municipality of Caprese Michelangelo and facing the enchanting Valtiberina in Tuscany, the valley across which the river Tiber flows.

Here You will get the chance to immerse yourself in beautiful landscapes where man's work is in harmony with the surrounding countryside. Close to the Tuscan Apennines and to the borders of Umbria, Emilia Romagna and the Marche, these lands are cultivated with meticulous care and passion and the hills are covered with calm, untouched forests. Civilisation here only consists in quaint medieval villages, lonely hermitages and settlements made of stone, cotto and wood, playing host to many artists and great people of the past.

A good example of that is the municipality of Caprese Michelangelo. Far away in time and space from historical event sites, it has nevertheless given birth to Michelangelo Buonarroti and has hosted more than once St. Francis of Assisi. Legend has it that St. Francis once made a spring gush forth (it is still here today) and performed a miracle during the restoration works on the village church.

This is the place where we've always been living. Our family business takes care of the land we all are deeply bound to and from now on is willing to welcome those who want to share with us our passion for this land or those who simply look for some peaceful and calm retreat where they can relax and enjoy local food.

That is the reason why we have carefully restored our ancient houses preserving their original warmth. Nevertheless they come equipped with all comforts and conveniences of home. Weare confident that our efforts will give You the chance of enjoying a pleasant stay.

Apartments e Rooms

The apartments are located in our ancient buildings, which have been restored paying great attention to every detail and trying to respect the original architecture: visible wood beams, cotto floors and centuries old stone beams have been preserved.
During the restoration works, we tried to combine modern comforts with the warmth of a well-loved and well-lived old place like this. In the same room, there often is an ancient fireplace and a radiant floor-heating system, old chestnut wood beams and comfortable parquet.
La Casina and La Torre (built inside a former Langobard tower) can easily host four people each, whereas Il Granaio has room for two people and the largest apartment Mirolago has room for six up to eight people.
All apartments have a large living room with a fireplace, a television, a kitchen or a cooking area. Each bedroom has a private bathroom and shower.

The second floor of the Casa Padronale hosts a single apartment. We call it Mirolago because of the great view you can enjoy from there.

Rooms ... The apartment is made up of three bedrooms with separate entrances. Each room can therefore be rented separately. The bedrooms are very roomy. Each one of them has antique furniture, a bathroom with a shower and a nice wardrobe area.
In addition to that, guests have access to the beautiful Mirolago living-room. They can relax on the sofas, use the kitchen, the dining room and the fireplace, enjoy the panoramic balcony (furnished with chairs and tables) and breathe some fresh air.
If You wish so, You can ask us to take care of Your breakfast, which will consists in home-made products such as jam and home-made cakes!
