Pick what fits the group
Truffle hunt
Three hours in the woods with Marco and his dog, ending in a truffle omelette breakfast.
Cooking workshop
Three pasta shapes, two hours, with Donata. Group eats lunch.
Cellar Olympics
Five-team blind tasting competition. Sommelier judges. Winning team gets a magnum.
Vespa convoy
Six-Vespa convoy through three villages, lunch in Pienza, return by sunset.
Olive harvest
November only. Pick olives, press them, take a bottle home.
Private chapel concert
A string trio plays for an hour in the chapel. Works particularly well as a Saturday-night opener.
"We've done these reunions every five years. This was the first one nobody complained about. The kids stayed at the kids' table. The adults got to be adults."
Whitman College reunion · 32 guests · June 2025
Real groups
Three groups we've hosted
"We've done these reunions every five years. This was the first one nobody complained about. The kids stayed at the kids' table. The adults got to be adults."
"The Friday-night surprise band was a touch we asked for two weeks out. They made it happen. The host (me) cried at the speech."
"We didn't get married here — we got married in Nairobi. But the entire wedding party flew here for the post-wedding decompression. Best decision of the entire wedding planning year."
Frequently asked
Before you book
What's the minimum group size for a full buyout?
Twenty guests in 12 occupied suites.
Can families with children come?
Yes. We have cribs, high chairs, a small children's menu, and a pool that's supervised in summer.
Can each guest pay separately?
Either. Most groups have one host who pays the buyout fee, with optional add-ons (massages, helicopter pickups) billed individually.
What if the group needs more than 24 suites?
We've placed up to 12 additional guests in two nearby agriturismi (15 minutes by car). The estate is still yours during the day.
Can we bring pets?
Two dogs per suite by prior arrangement.
What about staff for the host?
A dedicated concierge runs the entire stay for the host. They sit in your final pre-trip Zoom call.
Cancellation?
30% non-refundable on signing. The remaining 70% is fully refundable up to 90 days out, partially after that.
