✦ The Location

Sirmione, Lake Garda

The retreat takes place at a private location in Sirmione. Just a few minutes' walk from the lively historic centre lies this peaceful oasis — surrounded by lush greenery that offers true privacy.

The property has private lake access and a lakeside terrace with breathtaking sunset views. Surrounded by reeds and vegetation, it is a paradise for countless waterbirds you can watch throughout the day.

Workshops and shared meals take place in the charming loggia, the garden or on the lake terrace. Brunch and dinner are lovingly prepared by hand — mainly healthy, vegetarian dishes using organic ingredients. The classic Italian aperitivo — also available alcohol-free — is of course included.
