Casa Margherita

Casa Margherita is a holiday home in Tuscany, in a village betwen Siena and Grosseto. It has been fully restored in 2008 but the original Tuscan style of the rustic stone house has been preserved.

The front door opens onto the street that leads to the centre of the village of Casale di Pari: the house is located only steps away from the village bar and from the ancient village fountain where the women washed their clothes and peaple used to stop to pick up water or to let their donkeys and horses have a drink.

The main entrance opens into the sitting room with an open fireplace and an old kitchen cupboard. The fireplace is working and it has been restored to bring it back to its original splendour. 

 The sitting room

 From this room one can either access the kitchen or go upstairs to the second floor.

The kitchen is fully equipped to ensure that our guests can be independent and enjoy traying their hands at Italian cuisine! If the “experiment” is not successful there is always the excellent restaurant in the main village square, “Da Rosanna”!

The kitchen table can accommodate 4 to 6 people.

The kitchen table

The kitchen has an old wooden stove that we have restored and kept functioning. It is provided with a gas stove with electric oven as well of course and with all the necessary appliances.
