YOUR WEEK
Tuscan Break is not like any other week away. It's an intimate vacation focusing on a maximum of 5-6 guests who will join Liz in her farmhouse. It's for those who want to feel part of something special whether travelling alone or with friends. It's not about seeing as many places as possible in a week, but more about the local experience, really unwinding and discovering out of the way places like restaurants that you wouldn't normally discover on your own. Tuscan Break is a true experience!
You will be part of a select group of women who are all on the same page. Women who, for one week want to enjoy themselves, have great conversations, laugh and kick back.
The setting for your stay is our 18th century, beautifully casual yet tastefully Tuscan farmhouse, which features multiple living areas, individual ensuite bedrooms and of course, a breathtaking infinity pool.
This is the perfect opportunity to relax and immerse yourself in the Tuscan experience. We offer a range of activities, including authentic cooking classes, Chianti wine & olive oil tastings and sightseeing to nearby villages and towns. There will be home cooked dinners, drinks by the pool and aperitifs with the locals in the piazza.
Join us for a real Tuscan experience.

LOCAL VILLAGES
During the week we will take lazy strolls through local villages in the Chianti region. There is always time for a gelato or coffee with the locals.
COOKING CLASSES
Tuscan food is rich in tradition and often passed down through the generations. A highlight will be getting 'hands on' and learning how to prepare some wonderful dishes. Of course, eating the meal afterwards is an absolute bonus.
MARKET DAYS
Local markets are a wonderful way to immerse yourself amongst the locals.The language, the colour, the food. Also several times a month there are local antique and bric-a-brac markets and when available, we will visit.
WINE & FOOD
The Chianti region dates back to 1716 and is rich in history. You don't need to a wine drinker to enjoy a day experiencing the food, wine and countryside.
