In the heart of the Casentinesi Forest Park

Casa Camporino is located in the heart of the Casentinesi Forest Park in Località Moggiona, a few kilometers from Poppi, classified among the "most beautiful villages in Italy"

The structure is recently renovated, comfortable and welcoming as our guests define it today. Natural stone on the outside, carefully furnished on the inside, combining Tuscan style with modern restorations and recoveries.

Surrounded by a large garden, guests are offered the opportunity to live in and in contact with the nature of the park; eating in the open area, using the barbecue area equipped with everything you need, and the solarium area for a whirlpool and hours of sun and relaxation. For lovers in the neighboring park you can follow paths for trekking and mountain biking (the structure offers two Mountain bikes). With less than two hours of walking, taking the path that starts right behind the house, you can reach Camaldoli and the Hermitage of Camaldoli among entire forests of ancient trees and a lot of history.

In the area behind the house, a wildlife center focused on the Wolf has recently been inaugurated; starting from the information point at the Bar del Paese you can follow a series of illustrative bulletin boards with info and studies on the Wolf; then ending the route with a sighting station that can be used to observe the fauna both day and night. Many of our guests had the pleasure of seeing deer, roe deer and many other characteristic animals of the park.

Moggiona is a small, peaceful and pleasant town. It offers a breakfast bar, a small grocery store and a family restaurant with typical and traditional cuisine. Around the church develops a small village, there is a small museum on the profession of Bigonai (builders of caratelli, bigoni and various) and on the War (Moggiona is located just below what was in the Second World War the Gothic Line).
In August, on 14-15-16 the Pro Loco of the town organizes the Porcino Mushroom Festival.

Wundervolles Häuschen mit traumhaftem Garten
Wir haben unseren Urlaub hier sehr genossen. Es war Erholung pur. Auch unser Hund fühlte sich sehr wohl. Das Haus ist umgeben von einem wundervollen Garten. Alles grünt und blüht. Der Pool ist einfach toll. Man kann auf den beiden Sonnenliegen prima entspannen. Das Haus ist sehr schön und gemütlich eingerichtet. In der Küche fehlt es an nichts. Besonders freundlich sind die Gastgeber, die sich regelmäßig nach unserem Wohlbefinden erkundigt haben. Zur Begrüßung stand ein Körbchen mit lokalen Produkten für uns bereit. Mit dem Auto kann man die Sehenswürdigkeiten der Toscana erkunden. In Poppi findet man tolle Restaurants und Geschäfte. Empfehlung: La Torricella mit tollem Panoramablick.Es stimmte einfach alles. Vielen lieben Dank an Massimiliano und seine Familie.

Marodes Häuschen in den Bergen -Preis-Leistung stimmt hier aber nicht
Leider entspricht das Häuschen nicht den beschriebenen Erwartungen.Vieles ist alt und marode, die Ausstattung unzulänglich und das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis stimmt nicht annähernd. Das Sat-TV funktionierte nicht, wir konnten die EM nicht verfolgen, der Besitzer bemühte sich nach einer ganzen Woche endlich um einen Techniker, danach konnte man Fernsehkanäle nach dem Zufallsprinzip empfangen. Zwei Tage saßen wir ohne Waschbecken da, der Hahn war kaputt, das Wasser lief direkt ins Bad. Die Duschkabine war locker, die Fliegengitter kaputt, bei unserer Ankunft war die Mülltonne nicht geleert. Es gab keinen funktionierenden Korkenzieher, Bettzeug und Handtücher wurden nicht - wie angekündigt - gewechselt, das W-LAN Passwort erst nach einer Woche mitgeteilt etc. Dafür wollte der selbstgefällige Vermieter noch zusätzliche 150 € für unsere beiden Hunde, die seien ja so groß(!), anstatt uns entgegenzukommen, da wir ja teilweise ohne Fernseher und Waschbecken waren. Da gibt es in ganz Italien bessere und komfortablere Strukturen mit fairen und freundlichen Gastgebern. Die Umgebung und der Garten sind wundervoll, allerdings sehr hoch im Bergdorf Moggiona gelegen und daher mit einem Temperaturunterschied zu Poppi von mindestens 4-5°

Erholungsurlaub pur!
Das Casa Silva Camporino ist ein wunderschön gelegenes Ferienhaus mitten im Nationalpark am Rande eines kleinen Dörfchens. Hier kann man prima relaxen und die Ruhe genießen! Das Haus ist liebevoll eingerichtet und dennoch ist alles vorhanden was man braucht. Auch die Sehenswürdigkeiten in der Umgebung und die Städte Florenz oder Pisa sind auf jeden Fall einen Ausflug wert! Wir haben hier 10 wunderbare Tage verbracht!

Perfect stay.
We spent 14 days at this place in may, it’s a beautiful house in the middle of a protected national park. The house, the garden and swimming pool are all well maintained. It’s at a height of 700 meter, it cools down in the evening. But with the fire place it’s very cosy. The hosts are very friendly and do speak perfect English.

Wunderschönes Haus, una casa bellissima
Wir haben eine sehr schöne Woche verbracht in einem Haus, das sehr gut ausgestattet ist und sehr schön gelegen, am Rande eines Dorfs und mitten im Nationalpark. - Abbiamo trascorso una ottima settimana in una casa benissima attrezzata, in una bella posizione, ai margini del villaggio e nel mezzo del parco nazionale.

Bellissima casetta immersa nel verde
La posizione della casetta è molto bella, adiacente al bosco. Il giardino è molto curato grande e ben recintato con una bella piscina. L'interno della casa è arredato con gusto e non manca nulla. (Forse una piccola lavatrice...) Ottima posizione sia per itinerari naturalistici e città d'arte. Molto relax e verde

Perfekt für Urlaub mit Hund
Die Villa ist ein Traum für Familien oder Paare mit einem oder mehreren Hunden. Sie ist sehr schön eingerichtet und bei der Ausstattung fehlt an nichts. Die Küche ist ebenfalls sehr gut ausgestattet. Der Vermieter ist sehr sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit bei jeder Frage oder jedem kleinen Problem. Leckere toskanische Gastgeschenke standen bei der Ankunft auch bereit. Die Lage ist sehr ruhig und gleich hinter dem Grundstück beginnt der riesige Nationalpark. Natürlich hat man, wenn man gleich am Wald wohnt, hier und da ein paar tierische Besucher aber unsere Hündin haben sie nicht weiter gestört. Mit 2 Stunden Autofahrt über die serpentinenreichen Straßen der Berge und über die Autobahn kommt man auch schnell an die nordöstliche Küste Italiens. Rundum ein toller Urlaub. Beim nächsten Mal mit besserem Wetter😅. Vielen Dank Massimilliano für den schönen Urlaub trotz Regen und Kälte.

Abbiamo passato con mio marito, nostro figlio e il nostro cane tre giorni incantevoli in questa spelndida casetta. La casa è molto pulita e dotata di ogni comfort e accessorio per il soggiorno . La posizione è immersa nel verde con accesso diretto a sentieri e passeggiate. Anche il nostro cane ha potuto approfittare dello spazio in giardino . I proprietari molto disponibili e attenti ad ogni nostra richiesta e bisogno. Torneremo sicuro in estate per poter viverla nella stagione migliore. Ciao ed a presto. Sandra e famiglia 😀

CONSIGLIATISSIMO
Ho soggiornato due notti in questa casa immersa nel Parco del Casentino e mi sono trovata molto bene. Il luogo è ricco di silenzio, calore e comfort. La casa è grande e accogliente dotata di tutto il necessario. Il camino ha reso il nostro soggiorno magico! Il giardino è molto grande e per la nostra cagnolona si è reso perfetto (nonostante la recinzione sia in un punto poco affidabile). In cucina non mancava niente; abbiamo trovato disponibili sale, zucchero,aceto,caffè in capsule (a pagamento) e un graditissimo omaggio offerto dai padroni di casa: biscotti e schiacciata ai ciccioli.... una bontà! Consiglio questa location a famiglie,coppie e amici. È vicinissima a Camaldoli e Poppi (dove è possibile trovare supermercati ).

Capodanno nel bosco
Abbiamo soggiornato nel periodo di capodanno in questa spendida villetta completamente ristrutturata, dotata di ogni comfort. Ampio giardino con veranda e barbecue. E' situata in un luogo tranquillo e adiacente al bosco dove è possibile fare belle passeggiate tra i sentieri, sia in bici (che la casa mette a disposizione) che a piedi. Il proprietario si è dimostrato una persona disponibile e professionale sin da subito ed è stato attento a soddisfare ogni nostra esigenza. Speriamo di avere modo di tornarci quando farà più caldo perché il posto merita davvero!

Das im Herzen der Toskana gelegene Haus war sehr gemütlich und gepflegt. Für 4 Personen ideal. Von der Familie wurden wir mit Sekt herzlich empfangen.

Posto bellissimo e rilassante.
Posto bellissimo in un piccolo.paesino nelle foreste casentinesi. Sembrava la casina di Biancaneve, con accanto il bosco! La casa è molto carina e spaziosa. Al nostro arrivo ci hanno fatto trovare dei prodotti tipici del luogo deliziosi. Se dovessi trovare dei difetti, direi che il divano sarebbe da cambiare,purtroppo il tempo nn è statp dalla nostra e abbiamo passato molto tempo in casa, ed ho dovuto optare per il letto mentre leggevo perché il divano era scomodissimo. Ma è un.piccolo dettaglio che non toglie nulla alla casa.
