Hospitality The lay out of the living areas enhance both the importance of the original materials, which have been recuperated or re-laid, and the careful choice of furnishing complements, which make every corner of the hotel enjoyable. In a living room, one can sit around an old fireplace whilst in the surrounding spaces - which become intimate conversation areas - there is a well stocked library. On the first floor of the Hotel is a magnificent Loggia, flooded with light and enriched with the discreet luxury of carefully chosen furniture and objects whose rich choice of colours and materials show taste, flair and sensitivity. |
Restaurant La Colonna In an area like Tuscany, where passion for culinary art is particularly strong, our cuisine enhances the flavour and the tradition not only of seasonal dishes, but also of the traditional Italian menu. Every recipe proposed by the chef of our restaurant, is created with taste, creativity and elegance.
L'Orto delle Monache This restaurant, open in the warmest months, is situated close to the open air swimming pool, in an oasis of peaceful uncontaminated beauty: tasting of various produce, grilled fish and meat, light lunches made up of fresh, genuine produce. All enhanced by the flavour and aroma of our land. |
Terrazza Belvedere In the distance the wine road snakes through the half cultivated, half wild countryside. From here, one can admire magical surrounds in the cool of the summer evenings during an unforgettable dinner served in an elegant yet friendly atmosphere. For our guests there is an excellent Wine List and a carefully chosen Selection of Fine Spirits.
The Lounge Bar An exclusive atmosphere in which to enjoy elaborate cocktails, wines and other drinks. Leaf through international newspapers and magazines and maybe browse through the shelves of the library. In the evenings, dense with atmosphere and tranquillity, the delicate notes of the pianist will merge to form an ideal setting. Otherwise what about a light refreshing drink around the poolside bar "La Macina". |
Indoor Pool Just a window divides the area of the Hotel Le Fontanelle's inside swimming pool and whirlpool area from the delightful surrounding countryside. Both relaxation and movement combine delightfully in this area. The sauna, the Turkish baths and the whirlpool provide the ancient ritual of water therapy.
