Umbria Italy 2020

Umbria
Italy RETREAT

SEPT. 5th - 12th 2020

About
the retreat

Invigorating, tranquil, natural, inspiring and tasty! We'll retreat to the Umbria hills to stay in a beautiful 15th century sustainable farmhouse that sits on top of a hill surrounded by olive groves, oak forests and a vineyard. Monestevole's community aims to offset their carbon footprint - offering guests the opportunity to plant a tree, pick tomatoes and/or sow some seeds. Energy is solar, food is local and water is welled, making getting back to basics incredibly easy and joyful. The Monestevole farmhouse boasts a sun-filled practice room with bamboo floors and a wood burning stove. The grounds offer an outdoor salt water pool, magical animals that love to be fed by guests, charming rustic-chic rooms and lots of quaint indoor and outdoor spots to rest up, read or hammock on with a glass of vino in hand:)
