D.H. Lawrence once says, for you to go to Italy and to penetrate into Italy is like a most fascinating act of self-discovery, back, back down the old ways of time. Strange and wonderful chords awake in you, and vibrate again after many hundreds of years of complete forgetfulness. Sometimes, it takes a special place in your life and the right setting to unravel and just let go. Soulfit Adventures offers an exquisite opportunity to do just that in Tuscany.
The venue was historically the principle support building for the main villa on the estate and all its agricultural activities. Set in the heart of a vast property of rolling hills, vineyards, and olive groves, it's recently been fully renovated. It has everything you need including your own pool and yoga studio! The estate’s olive grove produces its fine quality cold-pressed oil, seasonal fruit and vegetables, and fresh eggs when the hens are laying.
Near the ancient fortified city of Lucca, it was built in 1729, and the whole estate is a fine example of a summer retreat for the nobility. The estate and its buildings have been sympathetically renovated to provide accommodation that is comfortable and luxurious, combined with classic elegant Tuscan style.
