"The environment, buildings, and staff here made our experience so magical!! Kriszti and Luca were generously accommodating and made the event super special. The chef, Sergio, is so fun and creative with his dishes - I ate so much delicious food. The buildings are gorgeous and beautifully restored. This was the perfect place for our retreat and we’ll be back."

CELEBRATIONS
MAIN HOUSE
Serene bedrooms, breathtaking views, and thoughtful touches.
Place your palm on the cool plaster walls,
and you can almost feel the quiet presence of centuries of secrets.
Frescoes and original artworks adorn the main house, enriched by ancient marks and indentations resurfaced during Luca’s careful restoration.
Luxurious linens, a variety of pillows, and fresh flower arrangements are Kriszti’s thoughtful touches that await in every guest room. Our guest rooms are made to be modular - beds can be put together for a couple, beds can be separated to accommodate several guests.

During a time of relative peace in 1800s Italy, the Bachificio was built when the villa transitioned from a fortress into agriculture and the cultivation of precious silk.
Today, the Bachificio serves as the front room, living room, and dining room here at your home away from home. Between mealtimes, borrow a book from our shelves and read by the fireplace, sketch at the table, or gather to chat with friends and family.

THE STUDIO
In the top floor of the Bachificio is The Studio. With a high beamed ceiling soaring above your head, and rich hardwood floors beneath your feet, it’s the perfect space for dancing, yoga, or exercise.
No matter the season, throw open the beautiful french doors and let the space fill with the symphony of birdsong and countryside. For those willing to wake up early enough, sneak up the stairs and watch the sun emerge and beam across the Tuscan landscape.
