Built in the 1600s and passed down through three generations of my family, the house feels like a living novel, where every room tells a chapter of our history. Originally an ancient convent, it still exudes an aura of peace and sanctity, enriched by the memories of my grandparents, who transformed it into a lively center of activity. In the 1950s, as Italy recovered from World War II, my grandfather and his brother started a small egg business, biking through nearby villages to buy eggs and sell them at the market. Before long, the courtyard became a bustling farm with over 3,000 hens, and what is now the cozy living room was once used to store eggs, thanks to its naturally cool temperature. The house also played a role in silk production: on the top floor, a large fireplace kept silkworms warm during the winter. But beyond commerce, this home has always been the setting for a love story and a deep sense of family — a spirit that still lives in its walls today. Practical Information The house is spread over three floors, connected by original 17th-century stone staircases that add charm and authenticity to its atmosphere. It is equipped with a self check-in system — all the necessary information will be provided on the day of arrival, once the ID photos of all guests have been received for registration with the local authorities. Please note that documents must be sent no later than 7:00 p.m. on the day of check-in, and in any case before entering the house. The tourist tax is not included in the price and must be paid during your stay or before departure. All this information, along with local tips and curiosities, can be found in the Welcome Book available at the entrance. Waste collection is door-to-door, and a schedule is displayed in the kitchen indicating the collection days. Please place the bins outside the gate, along the wall, on the evening before the day shown on the schedule. Thank you for helping us keep the house tidy! Welcome to Corte L'Ovo!
