Description
It is a typical Tuscan farmhouse nestled in the Val di Sieve, land of Chianti Rufina, just 25 km from Florence.
At La Fontaccia, you will be welcomed in a familiar environment. During the winter months, you can relax in our common room in front of the wood-burning fireplace, reading the book you never had time to read or having fun with our collection of board games.
During the summer months, you can sunbathe between the restored old washhouse and our aromatic herb garden, or take a walk among the olive trees and beautiful woods surrounding the farmhouse, following the marked trails.
On our table, you will taste self-produced Tuscan food and products from the agricultural companies of the Val di Sieve, respecting local specialties and the short supply chain.

Restaurant
Our cuisine is a typical Tuscan home cooking that offers recipes that have always been used in our families. We are very careful to use local, seasonal, and as much as possible organic products, most of which are produced directly by us.
We strongly believe in the importance of a short supply chain to have Good, Clean, and Fair food, which respects the seasons, as Slow Food's motto says, of which we are members. Samuele goes down to the village every morning to shop in local shops or farms, in order to always have fresh, seasonal products without waste. We are convinced that the quality of food also comes from human relationships.
Our menu is fixed and changes every day. We pay attention to all needs and also offer vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free alternatives if notified in advance.

The hosts were incredible, warm, and welcoming. They checked in on us daily and helped to plan our daily itineraries in such a smooth way. The view was incredible and the daily breakfast spread was perfect. We highly recommend joining dinner one night. Such a lovely time. We will be back!

Exceptional location in the green and in total tranquility, the ideal place to relax and enjoy the pleasure of being surrounded by nature. The owners are a very young couple who deserve all our compliments. The property is new, very charming and very clean.
