The location.

Our location is the rural and unspoiled medieval village of Casperia perched amidst spectacular mountains and surrounded by olive groves. With no modern distractions, it offers timeless charm and a chance to experience genuine Italian village life.

There are amazing countryside walks to enjoy in the mediterranean sunshine. Local food, wine, and coffee with warm hospitality - all that the Italians do best.

The walled village is steeped in history. Enjoy strolling its car-free streets and taking in the panoramic views of the surrounding landscape.

Where we'll stay.

Our home for the week is an historic, centuries-old palazzo, where simplicity meets history. Once the Count’s private residence, situated inside the medieval walls of the village. Rich in history and full of antiques dating back centuries. Enjoy exploring the ancient courtyard, gardens and grounds.

Inside the palazzo, we have shared twin rooms, each with its own bathroom and a communal lounge and kitchen - beautifully simple spaces that honour the palazzo's centuries-old charm.

Breakfast is served daily in the village cafe after our morning yoga class. Lunches and evening meals can be enjoyed either at the 2 or 3 local restaurants or by cooking together in the kitchen. There is a village shop to buy daily, fresh, local produce.

Yoga each morning and each afternoon in the converted stable of the palazzo. With focus on the the breath and suitable for all levels.
