ACTIVITIES
Our Activities
We are committed to staying unique by offering
The privilege of small numbers… without the price of luxury:
- We run any activity with as few as 2 guests and a MAXIMUM of 8 (unless you book a private party with more guests).
The homey atmosphere of a real Tuscan home…without the language barrier:
- Friendly, knowledgeable, English speaking hosts.
The competence of over 1/4 century experience…without the academic feel:
- We host our guests in our historical family homes; we work in our kitchens, we eat in our dining rooms.
Our classic “Wine & Cook” has been our most popular for two and a half decades,
but we constantly work to improve and add exciting new options and details.
