Welcome to the heart of Chianti, in a delightful ancient context. Between Florence and Siena, Castellina in Chianti best represents the splendid panorama of the Tuscan countryside. Vineyards, olive groves and oak woods are typical of the area.  The surroundings of enchanting beauty are scattered with churches, castles and farms. In the XIII century, Castellina together with Gaiole and Radda were part of the chianti league, whose banners were covered by that black rooster that today appears in the classic Chianti brand. The town of bedandbreakfast preserves a typical fifteenth-century structure.  At the foot of the castle of Grignano, we will host you in a special, relaxing and ... a little fairy-tale atmosphere !!! You will stay where elves and fairies are at home, in the rooms of Snow White, Peter Pan, Pinocchio and Sleeping Beauty. All with bathroom.  In a characteristic Tuscan farmhouse, quiet and finely restored, you will give your holiday a touch of magic.
Born in Florence, I decided to move in 2008. During a trip to Scotland in 2001, I met the hospitality of bedandbreakfast. I was fascinated, I decided to take this way to host tourists in love with Tuscany with ease and also with part of my daily life.
