We have found the most beautiful pocket of Italy on the Tuscan Umbrian border.
This is where our beloved Italian farmhouse Siliano Alto is located. Situated in a glorious off the beaten track, estate we are free to relax and enjoy nature and the peace and quiet; along with the joy of the swimming pool. We can soak up the culture, magnificent local cities and sights, all without the throngs of tourists. We happily share our hidden gems in this weeklong compilation of all our favourite things. We have spent years researching and sampling the finest our region of Italy has to offer, so that we can pick the absolute best for your experience of a lifetime.
We offer you so much more than just the Italian staples of coffee, pizza and pasta.
Let us show you the wonders of our local Italian neighbourhood and all the magical places we’ve discovered. The little known, magnificent, historic cities, the multitude of wondrous foods and experiences. We can visit local farms, producers and markets, some better known than others. There are so many fantastic wineries nearby to enjoy. We can take you to the best sandwich place in the world, this is not an exaggeration! We know where all the best gelato is and can take you to places only the locals know about.
Everything included on Retreat:
- A Beautiful Italian country estate to call your home for the week.
- Daily breakfast and all meals whilst at the house.
- Visits to off the beaten track local villages, all stunning and in close proximity. Sample local food and wine, and do a bit of boutique shopping.
- Relaxation time.
- A Beautiful bedroom and communal spaces
- Connection with your favourite people that you invite to join you.
What you can add on:
You then get to choose if you would like us to add anything onto your Retreat - for example a Spa trip, Hot Springs, Massage, Yoga, Tastings, A truffle hunt, An art class etc. These can be designed according to your wishes and tastes. Additional costs will be outlined.
We have put together an authentic, Italian experience for you to soak up and remember forever.
