Just a short walk from the clear waters of the Marecchia River, Il Casalone is a unique agriturismo, created from the restoration of the ancient “Castrum Sancti Paterniani,” which dates back to 1264. Located in the village of San Patrignano and surrounded by pristine nature, Il Casalone is the perfect place for those looking to reconnect with the deep bond of the forest, its scents, and its flavors. Here, the rural experience transforms into a form of eco-tourism, thanks to a combination of hospitality, forest cuisine, and activities closely linked to the environment.

The kitchen, the result of over twenty years of research by Dr. Augusto Verando Tocci and his family, offers original and authentic dishes made with ingredients sourced from the forests and organic farms of the estate. From grilled Chianina steak to ancient medieval recipes like agliata and migliaccio, each dish reflects seasonality, tradition, creativity, and a commitment to sustainability. Activities such as truffle-hunting excursions with trained dogs, visits to the arboretum, library, and rural museum, as well as educational programs focused on identifying wild herbs, enhance a stay dedicated to discovery.

Just 3 km away lies Badia Tedalda, easily accessible on foot via the old road. Here, guests can find all necessary services, including restaurants, bars, shops, a pharmacy, and a monumental church housing precious glazed terracotta works from the Robbian school. Numerous destinations are reachable in the surrounding area: from Sansepolcro to Anghiari, from La Verna to Assisi, and even to Urbino, Rimini, and San Marino, providing endless opportunities for excursions and cultural visits.

Rooms and Rates

The restaurant at Agriturismo Il Casalone offers a unique cuisine that is deeply rooted in the local area, resulting from over twenty years of research on forest gastronomy conducted by Dr. Augusto Verando Tocci. The dishes emerge from a blend of tradition, seasonality, and creativity, utilizing ingredients sourced from the woods and the organic farming of the estate.

Each offering tells a story about its connection to the surrounding environment: from handmade fresh pasta to rediscovered medieval dishes like agliata or migliaccio made with milk, alongside specialties such as grilled Chianina meat cuts and steaks. Wild herbs gathered from the arboretum, wild fruits, and local truffles enhance the flavors with unexpected and authentic notes.

The restaurant operates by reservation and provides an opportunity to enjoy a unique culinary experience, immersed in the nature and gastronomic culture of the Alta Valmarecchia region.

Area Collina

The Agriturismo Il Casalone is located in the quaint village of San Patrignano, nestled in the lush landscape of the Alta Valmarecchia region, just 350 meters from the clear waters of the Marecchia River, where visitors can swim or fish. The surroundings are peaceful, secluded, and surrounded by forests, making it an ideal spot for those seeking a refreshing getaway in nature. This area boasts rich biodiversity and is perfect for green walks, excursions to discover wild herbs and wildlife, or guided truffle hunting experiences.

Only 3 kilometers away, easily accessible on foot via an ancient connecting road, lies the village of Badia Tedalda, which serves as a hub for essential services. Here, you can find shops, cafes, restaurants, a pharmacy, a bank, a post office, a tourist information center, and a monumental church that houses three valuable glazed terracotta altarpieces attributed to the school of Andrea della Robbia.

The location is also strategic for those wanting to explore the surrounding areas: within a 30 to 70-kilometer radius, you can visit some of the most charming places in central Italy, such as Sansepolcro, Anghiari, La Verna, Arezzo, Perugia, and Assisi. Heading east, you'll reach Rimini, Urbino, Pennabilli, San Leo, and San Marino. The region, still authentic and not overly touristy, retains the essence of the Tuscan-Romagna Apennines, offering a perfect balance of nature, culture, and traditions.
