Ode to Slowness

The Philosophy

ode to slowness

Between the endless hills of Chianti and the distinctive Tuscan identity, lies a stay at Le Lappe. A vast olive grove, a well-tended garden and  Nature's raw beauty embrace the elegant settings of the two stone farmhouses. Natural, relaxed rhythms promise well-being and lightness, all whithin an estate dedicated to people and a thoughtful, exclusive hospitality

The Story

a tower over the valley

In the 17th century it was a watch tower and from its partial collapse transformed into a small convent. After a period of neglect, in the 1800s the estate was restored and turned into a private residence. As a gift to the woman he loved, the owner had the second building constructed. From the same love, this time for the land, in the 1980s the current ownership gave birth to Le Lappe in respect of tradition and the original conformation.
