Guests can delight in a silent morning stroll before enjoying a varied and abundant breakfast in a relaxed atmosphere. This is a perfect time to exchange experiences and tips with other guests and make new acquaintances.

Your days can be filled with visits to some of the most famous cities of art, medieval villages, working farms, and nearby castles. Lose yourself along the picturesque country lanes with unforgettable views, and explore the rich world of local food and wine.

At sunset, the garden provides a tranquil spot to relax before dinner where you will enjoy a wonderful Tuscan meal.  After dinner, let the stars guide you back to your room, where a comfortable bed and the gentle sound of crickets will ensure a restful night’s sleep.
