Casa Gentili nestles in the lush Tuscan countryside in an area often overlooked by the average visitor to Tuscany. Within walking distance of the village of Caprese Michelangelo and birthplace of the great artist Michelangelo, Casa Gentili provides the visitor with the perfect base to explore Tuscany.

Internally the property combines classic Italian features such as decorative artwork, large arch windows, stone staircase and a large open fire place with modern refurbished bathrooms and shower rooms, and a fully fitted kitchen. The manor house also has full central heating making it ideal for an all year round break.
