6 days and 5 nights of yoga, gastronomy, exploration, and relaxation in the Italian countryside.

May 30- June 4, 2026

Join me in Tuscany just as the lavender fields begin to bloom for an unforgettable yoga retreat. We’re staying in a stone retreat centre famous for sustainability and chic luxury. Nestled in the serene countryside of Monteriggioni, 15 km from Siena. Our magical retreat centre is where yoga, meditation, mindfulness, and holistic workshops flourish in harmony with nature.

Here, our stay is an opportunity to connect, share, and immerse yourself in rural adventures—from harvesting fresh produce to gathering around communal tables filled with gratitude and joy. Tuscany is more than a destination; it’s a way of life.

The Retreat Centre:

Offering a unique blend of tradition and modernity, our villa offers 8 charming bedrooms and a dedicated yoga space. Located on 7 hectares of land, the retreat centre is rooted in organic farming and ancient peasant traditions. The farm is 80% self-sufficient, producing vibrant fruits, vegetables, olives and medicinal plants that embody the essence of the zero-kilometer lifestyle. The thick walls and terracotta tiles keep the villa cool in the summer although much of daily life is spent outside. At the large communal tables under the pergolas, or in a chair or hammock in the sun, guests enjoy the southern exposure and lavender-scented breezes.

• 5 nights’ accommodation in an Italian stone villa with 3 meals a day

The Food:

Nestled in the heart of Tuscany, Ebbio preserves the timeless country ways of old Italy. We organically cultivate olive trees, vineyards, fruits, vegetables, and herbs, which

form the basis of our homemade vegetarian meals. Inspired by the mantra, “food is medicine,” our principle is that food is the ultimate source of health and happiness. Our nutrient-rich, organic, and vegetarian meals combine Mediterranean flavours with healthy creations. Our diet includes the finest fruits, vegetables, grains, legumes, seeds, eggs, and cheeses, designed to nourish and sustain your body.

We use fresh ingredients primarily harvested from our 7 hectares of land. Our organic garden counts 4000 square meters of the most various vegetables, fruits and beans, 700 olive trees, 1.5 hectare of chestnut forest, fruit trees, 1000 lavender plants and other officinalis which form the basis of our homemade vegetarian meals and necessities. Depending on the season, this allows us to be almost self sufficient, we grow about 70% of all our consumption.

Sample Dinner Menu:

Tomato soup, Quiche with peas and zucchini, Roasted potatoes, Beetroot caprese, Mixed salad, Chocolate pudding with cookies
