Your hosts
Elena & Tom, and a very busy garden
We bought the farmhouse in 2017 and spent two years restoring it. Tom runs the kitchen garden and the hens; Elena runs the kitchen and knows every winemaker in the valley.
Most of what you eat at breakfast grows within a hundred steps of the table: tomatoes, herbs, figs, citrus and the eggs.
“Tell us what you love and we'll plan the perfect day around it.”
Harvest season · August to October
Book early for the busiest months
Harvest weekends fill three to four months ahead. Midweek stays are quieter and cost up to $70 less a night.
