Casa dei Fiori Glicine 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 (50 mins - 1 hr), Siena (1 hr) and Arezzo (40 mins), which are all within easy reach. Anyone who's looking for a relaxing holiday amongst some of the most beautiful countryside in the world will find Casa dei Fiori Glicine a paradise.

There is also a tiny restored church now the reception. The property has been restored by specialist craftsmen, with attention to every detail thanks to the flair and vision of its owner. Traditional and modern styles are mixed innovatively to create a unique country style all of its own.
