Le Lappe Relais

Exclusive Relais with restaurant and swimming pool in Chianti, Tuscany 🌳🇮🇹 Le Lappe is deeply rooted in Tuscan traditions.

Even its name recalls the cultural setting – in the local dialect "lappa" refers to the spiny shell of chestnuts which woods characterize the area. Profondamente radicato nella tradizione toscana, l'agriturismo Le Lappe conserva anche nel nome l’impronta del contesto culturale in cui si inserisce. Con il termine "lappa" infatti, nella lingua d’uso della zona, si indica il guscio spinoso che ricopr

e la castagna, frutto che appartiene all’habitat naturale del territorio caratterizzato dai boschi di castagno.

Le Lappe is furnished more like a much loved home than a hotel. Pieces from our family homes are mixed with a carefully selected collection of antiques and bespoke pieces acquired over the past two years. Together they give a thoughtful patina and sense of history to our interiors.

A busy few weeks culminated in our reopening last Saturday. After months of hard work it was a joy to be able to welcome guests back to our special hotel and showcase the beauty that has been created inside and out. We cannot wait to unveil our finished spaces in the coming weeks, along with our new website, but in the meantime invite you to visit our current site to make a booking and come experience the beauty of our estate in an untouched corner of Tuscany.

With a month until our reopening the interiors of Le Lappe, like the wider estate, are coming into full bloom.

While work continues across the estate, from planting cypresses to herding cattle, we pay a call to our tapezzeria (upholsterer) set within Florence’s Santo Spirito.

A stone’s throw from Palazzo Pitti, Mauro, and his team, have been creating some of the finest upholstery for decades. Using centuries old techniques and traditional materials they are breathing new life into much loved family pieces and new antiques thoughtfully sourced by and from dealers and auction houses across Europe.

Renowned painter Assia Pallavicino is a native Florentine and one of our closest collaborators. A longtime friend, Assia and her team are meticulously painting each of our eleven uniquely-decorated rooms. Colors are informed by the changing seasons of the estate and the textures and materials that surround us. Assia trained at the prestigious Van der Kelen Logelain in Brussels, the oldest school for decorative painting in the world, and is responsible for some of Europes most beautiful interiors. We are thrilled to have her back home in Italy to help us realize our renewed vision for Le Lappe.

Our beloved chef, Sara, is the beating heart of Le Lappe. Born and raised next to our estate she learned to cook from the women in her family: her mother and grandmother. Her locally sourced and inspired food is what true Tuscan cooking should be: delicious and simple, made of the best ingredients. For the next months follow along as she prepares much loved classics, passed down from generations, and tests new ideas for our reopening.

At the core of our philosophy at Le Lappe is an emphasis on the beauty of artisanal craftsmanship. We are not just a hotel, but a showcase for the best of Tuscany. One of our cherished collaborators is Fratelli Bonaitui.

Perched high above Florence in the village of Fiesole, they have created some of the finest cabinetry and furniture for over a century. We visited their workshop as they put the finishing touches on the dining chairs for our restaurant.

Based off of an antique set we found they are expertly crafted and hand-finished.

As the world around us emerges from winter, heralding the beginning of spring, we are hard at work preparing Le Lappe for our reopening at the end of May.

Spring brings rebirth and regeneration both outside and inside as a team of expert artisans work to restore our treasured ancient buildings.

Le Lappe is, above all,
a heritage shaped by family.

This winter marks the start of a new chapter for the relais, a gentle renewal inspired by devotion to this land, reverence for beauty, and the wish to safeguard its truest essence.
