La Capperaia

Only 5 minutes from the tennis club 

This recently restored property is situated at the foot of the hills surrounding Florence, and the city centre is only 6km away, easily reachable by bike along the Arno River, car or local bus. The “Via del Chianti” – the Chianti Road – starts from Bagno a Ripoli and winds its way through beautiful countryside and amazing Tuscan vineyards, home of the label “Chianti Classico”.

La Capperaia is composed of 5 apartments and 3 ensuite rooms with cooking facilities, all decorated in a typical Tuscan style.

The two apartments Fiesole and Baroncelli enjoy a beautiful view of the Florentine hills of Fiesole and Monte Morello and share a large terrace, which is an ideal spot to sunbathe or to have a relaxing dinner in summer evenings.

The three apartments Il Chianti, La Fonte and Morello overlook the garden.

The 3 ensuite bedrooms, rooms, L’Aia, Il Pozzo and La Loggia, all have independent entrances, overlooking the small courtyard, which is the oldest part of the house. The Capparis spinosa, or caper bushes are situated here, these giving the house and the well it’s name. They once drew water to irrigate the crop fields surrounding the property. Nowadays the same water is used on the large garden around the house, full of olive/fruit trees and rose bushes.
