Casa Lucia – Panzano in Chianti

{Rooms with views}: Owner Janine Loohuis has a special eye for details. Fashion and textile designer, Holland born Janine is also a pottery maker and decorator. Her home and bed&breakfast is located in Panzano - halfway between Florence and Siena, right in the heart of Chianti, in Tuscany. A Medieval centro storico, Panzano hosts a Sunday Market  and  a monthly one (the first Sunday of every  month) in which   Arts & Crafts, Antiques and local food produce are sold.

In the  romantic garden,  antique roses, olive trees and ancient vineyards.

Tutto molto bello peccato che io non sia stato minimamente interpellato per lo sfruttamento delle immagini!
