Residenza d'epoca Il Cassero

Ontbijt is niet ter plaatse maar beschikbaar bij drie nabij gelegen koffieshops door middel van vouchers.

Massimo is a great host - very helpful and a genuine and nice man. The place is very unique and in a really convenient location to travel to cities like Siena, Arezzo and even Florence. We would highly recommend staying at this beautiful place.

Everything was great!

We loved the location of Il Cassero, right by the main gate into the town of Lucignano. It is gated access and you are encouraged to drop bags and park outside, but we never had a problem finding a free parking space, 2 minutes walk away. It’s a beautiful old building and our apartment was on the second floor overlooking the front garden. A lovely light airy room, cool with the aircon, and traditional furnishings entirely appropriate for the building. Climbing the wide marble stairs, you almost feel like you are in one of the many palazzos we visited! Good sized bathroom with separate shower cubicle. Tiny kitchen, with basic equipment, but we had no need to use it other than for the fridge! There were 3 or 4 very creaky steps up to reach the bathroom and kitchen! Breakfast was by voucher in restaurants literally outside the property’s gates. Certainly enough to set you up for a day’s exploring! There are also several very good restaurants of various levels of cuisine in and around the town, so on our 4 nights we ate very well, somewhere walkable and different every evening. Check out La Tavernetta particularly and the Gelato shop inside the town walls. It was a great base for day trips out to Arezzo, Cortona, and many other beautiful places in the countryside around us. We also loved climbing the property‘s own tower which gave a panoramic view of the town and surrounding countryside. We would return to Lucignano at the drop of a hat and would love to stay at Il Cassero again.

There was nothing not to like! Even the creaky steps in the room added to the quirkiness!
