What we will do
Check-in is from 3. 00 pm in Sondrio. On arrival, you will be welcomed by the staff and shown to your accommodation. You will be staying in a double room set within a 19th-century courtyard, with mattresses and pillows made entirely from wool from the organisers’ own sheep. The room has an en-suite bathroom with a shower, and bed linen and towels are provided.
The property is situated in the historic centre, but a 5-minute walk will take you to the nearby farm, where you can take a closer look at the barn and the orchard. Furthermore, in the surrounding grounds you’ll find many dye plants, a vegetable garden and a picnic area.
For dinner, the owners will be happy to recommend a typical local trattoria, whilst in the morning a hearty country breakfast (included) will be waiting for you in the courtyard’s small cellar. You can arrange with the organisers to have a sweet breakfast, with cakes and fresh fruit, or a savoury breakfast with eggs. There will also be a coffee machine and a kettle at your disposal.
The experience includes a delicious set-menu tasting lunch, served in the cellar. You’ll savour traditional country recipes: vegetables preserved in oil from the vegetable patch, artisanal pork cured meats, homemade bread with honey and jams, cotechino on a bed of leeks, a seasonal first course such as tagliatelle, crespelle or risotto, and a meat-based main course. The meal also includes a homemade dessert, a chicory coffee, a local amaro and a bottle of red wine.
Check-out is by 11. 00 am.
