Where you will stay

During your time at La Dolce Vita you will have the opportunity to experience authentic Italian country life. Our host estate is an Agriturismo with a small Olive Oil production, located in the hills of Tuscany.

Accommodations will be fulfilled by our retreat collaborator e20Toscani, a Siena based Italian travel agent.

AN OVERVIEW OF OUR HOME BASE

The estate is an olive oil producing, family run farm located 14 km from the medieval city of Siena. Surrounded by its olive groves and located in the heart of a terrain dotted with forests, natural springs, and historical and artistic heritage sites, it has been declared a “Site of Community Importance” by the European Community. This hilly area has a forest of oak trees, holm oaks and broom called “La Montagnola.”

In this hamlet, surrounded by an uncontaminated landscape, you can feel history and atmosphere as you explore this beautiful land. The estate has several apartments which will be our home away from home for the week.

ABOUT THE APARTMENTS

Each apartment is decorated in typical rustic Tuscan style with terra cotta tile floors, wooden beams and very thick stone walls. They also have a kitchenette and small living area.

One of the apartments has a very large communal space (pictured below) that will become a gathering place where our group participate in our creative workshops, laugh and visit throughout our week.

The apartments are typical for the region and have thick stone walls which help insulate against the sun and cold.

THE BEDROOMS

There will be both double and single occupancy rooms available for this retreat. Some rooms will have en-suites, and some will have bathroom facilities a few steps away, in a hallway, which will be shared between a maximum of 3 ladies.

All accommodation is booked through e20Toscani. Their terms and conditions apply.
