Dolce Sosta
A Sweet Reset in the Italian Countryside
our countryside retreatA quiet week held in a stone farmhouse above the Umbrian valley. Mornings begin slow, with terrace coffee and the sound of church bells drifting up from the village below. Days unfold between olive groves and vineyard tables, long lunches that run into evening, and the kind of stillness that only comes from putting your phone away. This is not a tour. It's a place to arrive, and stay a while.

Our Monastery in Umbria
High in the hills above Umbertide, Il Posto is a restored stone farmhouse where the days move slow. Float in the pool as it looks out over the valley, wander the ancient olive groves, and watch the hillside turn gold at sunset. Goats, chickens, and horses roam the grounds, happy to make friends, while trails just beyond the gate lead through vineyards and truffle woods. It's a place built for lingering — long lunches, wine on the terrace, and the kind of stillness you don't find just anywhere.
