Il Falconiere: A Family Legacy
-
The Relais Il Falconiere and Spa is a breathtaking resort set in Cortona, in the heart of the Tuscan countryside, a culinary and wine capital of the world.
Surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, Il Falconiere is the Tuscany dream. A 5 Star Resort & Spa, Michelin Star restaurant, two panoramic swimming pools and a cozy charming Spa, complete the services of the prestigious Relais & Châteaux association.
The love for a land rich in history and ancient Tuscan traditions is the foundation of everything created by Silvia & Riccardo Baracchi, who have dedicated their life’s work to transforming their 17th century family estate into the world’s best hospitality haven.
Their dedication to quality is awarded by some of the world’s most prestigious hospitality titles:
1* Michelin Star - Il Falconiere Restaurant
Italia’s Top Hotel - 3rd in Europe - 6th in the World - Travel & Leisure
400 The World Best Hotels - Forbes Traveller
1 of 580 ExclusiveLuxury Resorts in the World - Relais & Châteaux
-
To get to this exclusive restaurant, you drive through an idyllic landscape of small lanes lined with dry-stone walls and fields belonging to the Baracchi farm estate, leading to its beautiful panoramic and covered terrace overlooking the hills of Cortona in the Tuscan countryside.
The high quality of ingredients, respect of seasonality, and the use of products at km 0 are the guiding principles of all dishes on the menu. Wines, olive oil, and fresh produce are grown organically on property, and the restaurant’s strong connection with its local Tuscan landscapes is evident.
Il Falconiere Restaurant, helmed by Silvia Baracchi, has been award 1* Michelin Star since 2002, making it the longest standing Michelin restaurant in the province.
Silvia’s creativity continues to shine through innovative dishes inspired by classics. All of which our Nomad Home group will taste, and learn to create through our private Michelin cooking class.
-
The Baracchi Vineyards are located on the hills facing Cortona and the winery overlooks the panorama of the Tuscan countryside.
Riccardo Baracchi, passionate about the place he was born, continued the tradition of his family who have cultivated the vines and produced the wines since 1860, giving it sustainable energy, along with a high quality character. A torch eventually passed down to his son Benedetto.
The family is dedicated to producing wines of the highest quality, having committed to a fully organic and eventual biodynamic production, rooted in deep knowledge of the specificities of the surrounding land and soil.
The Baracchi award-winning wines are a taste of the evolution of an ancient family tradition. Wines we will indulge in through our experience through their rolling vineyard.
Silvia Baracchi: Michelin Chef & Your Culinary Instructor
Il Falconiere: 1* Michelin Chef for 23 Years
Born in Perugia and raised in the heart of Cortona, Silvia Baracchi comes from a family of restaurateurs and has inherited passion for Italian food and a sensitivity to the traditions.
Her ethos is using exceptional organic and hyperlocal ingredients, coupled with expert cooking methods to showcase the best of Tuscany. The star is the freshness of ingredient, from her own vegetables, wine and olive oil to fresh nearby Chianina cattle and Lake Trasimeno lake fish.
Sylvia’s innovative cuisine has made Il Falconiere the longest standing Michelin Star restaurant in the province, holding the accolade 23 years in a row.

Charlotte
CO-FOUNDER of HANDS London
My favourite thing about Nomad Home is being able to connect with a large group of people from all over the world. I usually make friends slowly but when you spend so much time with a group of people, you become extremely close very quickly. That has been rare in my adult life and something I’ll always treasure. I’ve made friendships that will last a lifetime - we have already planned a few meetups since.

Laurie
FOUNDER of Outsourceful
Running my own business can get lonely and repetitive at times so it was refreshing to be able to travel, cowork, and bounce ideas with a group of founders. Although many of us were from different countries, it was surprising how much we had in common. I’ve been to multiple Nomad Home events now and the London events were a great way to meet people in my home city. There are 4 of us that met that have already set up monthly dinners; we really left as a family.

Andrea
PRODUCT MARKETING MANAGER and CONTENT CREATOR
I’ve remote worked for 5 years and found that it’s been difficult to find people that love luxury travel and have a flexible lifestyle. Nomad Home has given me a community to grow together personally and professionally with, when I honestly didn’t realize I could make these deep of connections of my adult life. What’s better is I got to do it while wine tasting and dinner partying.

Jesse
CO-FOUNDER of BLA Design Group and FOUNDER of Adessa Visuals
I work a lot, which means I don’t have much time to get away, socialize, or plan travel itineraries. Nomad Home has made it easy for me to just show up, enjoy unique activities and dinner parties that are off the beaten path, and connect with interesting people working on cool projects I would have never met otherwise. It was even better that I got to do all of it while getting my work done.
