TOUCHING THE SOUL IN TUSCANY

Tuscany, Italy October 12th-18th, 2024

You, me and other beautiful guests, all for similar reasons.

Here to grow, to expand, to heal, to love, to decompress, to just BE.

Join Kacy on a one week yoga retreat to the Tuscan hills of Italy to indulge on locally grown foods, healing practices and rekindle the relationship within.

A Yoga retreat on a beautiful 100 acre olive grove estate. Here we will mix yoga and Italian activities. Just picture yourself starting your morning in downward dog in the rolling hills of Italy on a beautiful Italian morning.

You deserve relaxation.

You deserve a retreat.

You deserve to stay in Tuscany.

This is a small organic farm of just over 60 hectares, located on the northern hills of Lake Trasimeno, between Umbria and Tuscany, at around 300 meters above sea level, which has – with a view of the lake – the highly favorable micro-climate offered by the lake basin. The farm is located on the northern hills of Lake Trasimeno on the border between Umbria and Tuscany, Tuoro. A few kilometers from Cortona, in the province of Perugia, is an ideal location to rest but also to visit cities and villages.

The recovery of old houses has taken account of the characteristic features of the place and at the same time the needs of comfort: simple country homes,  environmentally friendly. The pool fits discreetly between the olive trees and is available to guests.

The estate has been a vineyard and olive grove for generations and has two tuscan style villas containing 7 apartments which can hold a maximum of 20 guests. The yoga studio can hold 15 guests comfortably and has a striking view over the vineyard. There is also a free washing machine on site.
