About Casa Merlo

Please see our Photographs page for more images. Casa Merlo is a traditionally-built stone cottage which is part of the reconstructed and part restored Borgo (Hamlet) of Le Ginestre di Greppolischieto. Le Ginestre is located near the Umbrian/Tuscan Border surrounded by wooded hills and open farmland.

Le Ginestre is the ideal location to switch-off from the toils of everyday life and lose oneself in the tranquillity and beauty of the local countryside. The perfect location to relax and read, paint or just simply listen to the sounds of nature.
