Welcome to our farmhouse, we are Elisabetta and Samuele, ready to welcome you with warmth and hospitality. We were born and raised in the city, immersed in urban habits and customs. We both enrolled in university: Elisabetta chose Economics, while Samuele studied Architecture. During these years, we met and became a couple. Living in Florence, surrounded by families who have passed down the culinary traditions of the region, has always made us dream of a simpler and rural life. The countryside has always been an important part of the history of this city, and even today many Florentine families own a country house, relatives who live there, or are descendants of farmers. Escaping from the stress of city life, we found refuge in our farmhouse, La Fontaccia. Initially, it was just a part of the land that we could use, but the parties with friends and the peace of nature made us realize that this place could become more than just a family property in ruins. The charm of the old building covered in ivy and the wild nature reclaiming once cultivated territories filled us with nostalgia and a desire to restore this place to its ancient beauty. So, with the help of our family and funds from the European Community, we began the renovation works, trying to preserve the structure, shapes, and original materials, also using new technologies that reduce environmental impact. We reclaimed the uncultivated land and replanted new olive trees, reopening the farm. After years of hard work, in 2014 we are finally ready to welcome our first guests. The La Fontaccia farmhouse has come back to life, and we are happy to share its beauty and history with you. We hope that your stay is unforgettable and that you can experience an authentic experience in our Tuscan countryside.
