Il Colombaio
... at home, in Tuscany

Between Chianti and Arno valley

Nestled in the hills that extend from the Chianti towards the Arno river valley, on the border between the provinces of Florence, Siena and Arezzo, lies Il Colombaio, a characteristic and charming old farmhouse surrounded by silvery-green olive groves.

Life in the countryside

Atop the hill of Montaio, the bell of the little church has marked the days with its tolling for centuries. In the fields all around, colors and scents and sounds change with the seasons, in a cycle that always repeats itself and never ceases to amaze.

Tuscan people

For countless generations, the Tuscan people have jealously preserved their lifestyle and traditions, aware and proud of the uniqueness of this region: a perfect, harmonious balance between the natural landscape and the work of man.
