Il Casale is part of the 100 acre farm 'Borgo di Montereggi' whose principal activity is producing high quality olive oil. As a lover of good wine, you will also be pleased to hear that this is Chianti country that produces the particular type called Montalbano.
You can be sure of peace and quiet and unspoilt country air with a stay at this charming old farmhouse. The accommodation is set in a lush green garden with plenty of space around and since there are only 6 apartments, you won't feel crowded. The terrace around the pool has been thoughtfully furnished so that you can relax with a good book and a glass of Chianti perhaps and let the wonderful environment work its magic.

The place is super lovely. Good apartment, super pool, sweet and helpful owner, who takes good care of the place. I would've liked there to be a recommendation for a good, authentic, Italian restaurant in the apartment, though and a tourist map over Empoli.
