Stays

Rich in history, from its founding as a convent to hosting legendary yoga retreats in the 60s and 70s, our farmhouse has always been a refuge where you can find calm and connect with nature. Benefiting from modern equipment (AC, wifi…) our guests see from the window Fiesole and Florence on one side, their museums and monuments, twinkling lights and night scenes, while on the other lies the timeless landscape of vineyards, olive groves, hiking trails, and its wonderful, small producers.

The temptation to stay in the farm fields, however, will be strong. You can spend your days wandering among peaceful olive groves, climbing small streams, picking bouquets of vibrant wildflowers, singing by the glow of a campfire or cooking a steak on the stone grill. Some may take advantage of the yoga lessons, and the kids will laugh all day sliding, swinging or climbing in our forgiving olive trees.

We can also provide you with a deeper dive into our world and history. We offer tours of our farm, organic olive oil and honey production, as well as tours of the region's wild edible plants. To fully embrace the serenity of your stay, we also offer massages, as well as cleaning services, laundry, airport shuttles or bicycle rentals.

Our farm's prime location, nestled at the top of the hill, offers ideal conditions year-round allowing plants, wildlife and people to thrive. There are few weeks of the year in which you cannot see the colorful spots of flowers in the fields, or hear the sweet songs of birds in the cypress trees.
