I arrived by chance at this B&B, thanks to a last minute deal found on the internet, and I must say that never was a more appropriate choice. Il Casalone is located in a tiny almost uninhabited village, about 3 km from Badia Tetalda, the capital of the Alpe della Luna nature reserve. The origins of the structure date back to an ancient "castrum" from 1200. Today, Il Casalone is completely renovated with taste, maintaining its feudal origins unchanged (stone walls, visible beams, large functional wood fireplace, etc.). Teresa Tocci, the host, is a person of rare and exquisite kindness (as well as a skilled cook) who knows how to make you feel at ease, accommodating your every need. The rooms are very comfortable and the cuisine is of excellent quality, favoring products from the garden and surrounding woods. Excellent homemade pasta and meat dishes, and at the end of the meal the inevitable "spinello" which, beyond the "mischievous" name, is actually a herbal liqueur extracted from the wild rose with digestive properties. If you love peace and tranquility, and want to evoke the flavors of the past, then I believe that Il Casalone is the right place. Finally, but no less important, very fair prices considering the quality of the services offered.
