Agriturismo Poppiena
About
Nestled in the hills of the province of Arezzo, at the gateway to Stia and Pratovecchio, Agriturismo Poppiena brings together several self-contained apartments within an authentic Tuscan farmstead. The property can comfortably accommodate around twenty guests, with each unit having its own private outdoor space with wooden furniture — allowing each family or subgroup to maintain its privacy while remaining on the same grounds.
The pool serves as the group's natural gathering point: clean, well-maintained, equipped with sun loungers, it provides an ideal shared relaxation space for long Tuscan summer days. The generous outdoor areas and hamlet-style layout make collective meals, shared aperitivos and informal moments easy, without everyone being obliged to occupy the same room.
The setting is particularly well suited to multi-day family reunions, milestone birthdays, friends' weekends or small professional retreats in search of a digital detox. The discreet nature of the location — off the beaten tourist track, yet within immediate reach of the medieval villages of the Casentino — also makes it a serious option for an intimate wedding or a creative retreat.
Maria, the owner, is regularly mentioned in reviews for her attentive hospitality and professionalism: a significant factor when organising a group stay, where minor logistical hiccups tend to multiply. The rating of 4.6/5 across 59 reviews reflects consistent quality, not a stroke of luck.
Key takeaways for a group: independence by apartment, private outdoor spaces, shared pool, an attentive and responsive owner, and an ideal base for exploring Tuscany without the crowds.

The best place for visiting Stia Pratovecchio. Beautiful location on the hillside with nice house. The owner Maria is taking care of her guests in the most professionell and heartwarming way. Grazie Mille!
Lovely Toscani place. The apartments all have private outdoor area with wooden furniture. The pool area are nice and clean with sun beds - in a very hot summer day an umbrella or two more would be nice. The kitchen has a good size but don’t expect full equipment like yours at home. Maria is an excellent host.
This is the most enchanting destination a mom with 2 young children could hope for. I spent a month here in the summer of 2002. I don't know if it's still run by the same lovely owners, but they were exceptionally welcoming and accommodating. In addition to a bottle of wine and a pick-up from the train station, they provided me with clothing, yes clothing, for my kids, as I couldn't pack/carry enough travelling myself with a toddler and a 4 year old. Since they had young children themselves, they generously loaned some clothing to us. Our time there was enchanted: swimming, exploring, picking blackberries, playing in the orchard, walking to town, taking day trips to area sites, and spending time with other families on holiday, as children tend to make friends quickly. The views are breathtaking. The villa's own wine was delicious. We rented the small 1 bedroom cottage and often ate alfresco on it's small porch. Clean and well-equipped for a small family. These memories will last a lifetime and I look forward to returning with my now-grown children.
Perfect place for a relaxing stay, homebase for visiting Tuscany and cycling or hiking tours. Clean, convenient and lovely pool.
Perfect and lovely stay in Toscana
