Staying at Casanova dei Boschi: An 18th Century Farmhouse in Tuscany

We recently spent 5 nights at the enchanting Casanova dei Boschi, an 18th-century farmhouse in the heart of the Val d’Orcia in Tuscany. If you’re yearning for a fairytale-like getaway filled with rustic charm, and breathtaking views this is the place to stay.

With five bedrooms, a full kitchen, a living room, and a wood-burning fireplace, it’s the perfect destination for friends or family!

I stayed at Casanova dei Boschi with my parents and my baby, Oliver, who was 10 months at the time, and it was like living out a childhood fantasy. We enjoyed slow mornings in the garden, hired a private chef to do a cooking class one night, and drank wine by the fire every evening.

About Vrbo

Vrbo offers a wide range of spacious and fully-equipped vacation homes, ensuring families have ample space and all the necessary amenities to be together. With options ranging from cozy cottages to luxurious villas, families can find accommodations that suit their specific needs and preferences.

Now that we travel as a family, we love that Vrbo listings often showcase kid-friendly features such as play areas or proximity to attractions, making it easier for families to plan activities and travel with less.

Located just a 10-minute drive from the beautiful village of Montepulciano, the farmhouse is centrally located while still feeling like you are entirely immersed in the countryside.
