Our Escapes are set in what was originally a borgo,a hamlet of homes, farm buildings, vineyards and olive groves producing wine and olive oil from medieval times. We have lovingly restored the Tuscan farmhouse, barns, limonaia (where the lemons were kept in winter) and loggias with the latest air conditioning, wi-fi and modern en-suite bathrooms, while retaining the original character of stone walls, wooden beams and terracotta tiles. We are a small, boutique borgo offering only 6 double and twin en-suite bedrooms set in an estate of olive groves, cypress trees, gardens, orchard, small oak woodland, an orto or vegetable garden and a fabulous swimming pool. Every guest is guaranteed a sun lounger on one of the terracotta pool terraces.

Ten years ago, Christine escaped from the UK and a hectic international career as a business school professor and has never looked back. She feels her whole outlook and way of life has changed.
“Our values today centre around sustainable health, culture and environment. We love preparing good, honest, home-cooked food, in the slow, Italian way that celebrates locally grown, fresh ingredients.

From working in the roller coaster financial services sector, John escaped to realise his and Christine’s dream to renovate a traditional Italian country home.
