Celli Alto Poppi

When the owners of Fattoria Celli decided to expand we knew they would produce some beautiful accommodation – they have exceeded every expectation. Celli Alto boasts stunning views across the valley below and a swimming pool which is one of the best we have seen.

Positioned 500 metres up the hill from Fattoria di Celli, this group of houses are immersed in lush greenery. The three newly completed apartments are of the highest quality, these being Orzo, Avena and Grano. In the new houses the beds are all doubles. All bathrooms have showers.

All apartments have dishwashers, fireplaces and heating for the winter months. The terraces are fully equipped with tables and chairs. For tennis enthusiasts there is a synthetic grass court approximately 200 metres away.
