Casa dei Fiori is part of a tiny medieval hamlet that hugs the slopes of the Pratomagno hills. From the farmhouse you can hear distant church bells chiming and sitting at 650 mts above sea level the sunset can be spectacular as the sun sinks slowly down behind the Chianti hills across the valley. There are lots of local villages to explore and yet it is also well situated for the Renaissance cities of Florence (40 mins), Siena (50 mins) and Arezzo (30 mins), which are both within easy reach. Anyone who's looking for a relaxing holiday amongst some of the most beautiful countryside in the world will find this place a paradise. Experience it for yourself, you cannot help but fall in love with Casa dei Fiori.
