    Mornings:
    The day starts with yoga on the terrace as the sun washes over the Tuscan hills. After a breakfast of fruit, muesli, smoothies and fresh juices we go walking in the Italian countryside. Just like our yoga and exercise classes, hikes are tailored to all fitness levels.

    Afternoons:
    After a light, fresh, detoxifying lunch, afternoons are varied. Depending on the day, your personal programme may include small group yoga instruction, personal fitness training or nutritional consultations. In addition, regular massages help you relax and enjoy the sun.

    Evenings:
    We wind down with an evening dinner in our fire-lit drawing room. Here we have a chance to draw from our expert's knowledge: our staff give talks on health, fitness relaxation and nutrition while our chef showcases a delicious, fresh, and healthy cuisine.
