Cooking class
Cooking courses with a stay in Tuscany are an exclusive experience.
Under the expert guidance of our chef, guests, gathered around a large table under the gazebo near the Villa, prepare dishes from our regional gastronomic tradition. During the holiday in Tuscany, participants learn to make homemade pasta and bread, as well as recipes based on genuine ingredients such as local olive oil, seasonal vegetables grown in our garden and meats from nearby farms .
This lesson offers participants the opportunity to discover Tuscan cuisine and culture through the preparation of traditional recipes in a relaxed and familiar atmosphere. With aprons and all the necessary tools, guests will prepare some of the most typical dishes of Tuscany, from fresh egg pasta, fresh tomatoes and basil from the garden for an excellent tomato sauce, to tiramisu or cantuccini.
The course is both fun and creative. Guests will be able to enjoy their creations during dinner at the end of the class. Starting from the garden to collect everything you need
ingredients and followed by cooking in the Villa's kitchen, the lesson lasts approximately 3 hours. Each participant will receive a personalized apron with name and date, a glass of local organic wine during the lesson and all the recipes.

Weekly Catering Service
The best way really on vacation is to do nothing.
Large groups can sometimes be difficult to organize, different tastes, different needs, different habits, children of different ages, etc. and the really worst part is everything clean after a 20 person breakfast, lunch and dinner.
For all this we offer our guests a weekly catering service for the whole group. You can choose whether you want half board, full board or perhaps just one meal during the day.
Our chef will be at the Villa to prepare food for all your meals according to your needs and tastes, he will also go shopping every day to get fresh products from nearby farms.
After each meal, the team will set the table and clean the stove and kitchen.
There is also the possibility of having everything homemade: pasta, bread, cakes, tarts, jams, etc.
If there are many children in your group it is also possible to organize a snack during the day. This service allows you to better unite the Villa and the area, having more time to dedicate to your family and friends.
