THE ESTATE
THE ESTATE
It was in 1999 that Giuseppina Bolfo first set eyes on an antique farmhouse in the hills of Castelnuovo Berardenga. It took seven years to carefully and respectfully renovate the structure: maintaining the energy in its massive stone exterior; building with wood from the region; and delicately adding refined terracotta pavements aligned with Chianti’s classic style. Hotel Le Fontanelle is the manifestation of a vision where guests can feel at home and immerse in its unparalleled landscape, while savoring a luxurious, attentive, and relaxing experience. An elegant home away from home for all those who wish to enjoy it.
THE ESTATE
The story of “Le Fontanelle,” is the story of our family’s passion for the land, our culture, and the art of hospitality. Starting with the love of Giuseppina Bolfo for the romantic hillside of Castelnuovo Berardenga, and then expanding, with attention to detail, by her grandson Nicola and, with creativity and vitality by his wife, Phoebe. We welcome the celebration of our heritage as we look with enthusiasm to the future
THE ESTATE
