WHAT
Would you like more energy, creativity, detox, focus and immunity in your life? On this small retreat [up to 10 guests] we will eat mostly plant-based food, practise daily yoga and get the health benefits of it.

Besides the daily practices and shared meals we also offer sound baths, pasta workshops with a local nonna and optional massages, bodywork treatments, surf and SUP classes.

LOCATION
There are some very good reasons why everyone seems to be going to Puglia right now. Down here on the edge of Europe, you feel other worlds. The heel of Italy’s boot combines fairytale landscapes with trulli, whitewashed towns, olive groves on red soil and interesting architecture. Our retreat house is in San Pietro in Bevagna and just 1 km from the beautiful sandy beaches on the Ionian Sea. Let yourself be inspired by the Apulians, masters at living life in the slow lane and enjoying the small pleasures in life.

FOOD + DRINKS
Then, of course, there’s the food, seriously good food and the main reason we are in Italy. Puglia is where you’ll find the most plant-based dishes; dozens of different types of leafy greens, sun-ripened vegetables and fruits, pulses, beans and bread + pasta made with ancient local grains as senatore Cappelli and monococco.

We believe making healthy choices in life doesn’t have to be hard at all, our raw desserts, ice creams, dips, soups, salads, pasta, curry and tortillas are made with nature’s most beautiful and nutritional ingredients. Food that will not just nurture your body, but love it at the same time. Our focus lies on sourcing the best produce from Puglia, we work directly with farmers who love their craft. We don’t serve coffee and alcohol but will make it up with our 5 superfood mylks and herbal teas.

ACCOMMODATION
We are staying in a beautiful restored and eco-friendly masseria in San Pietro in Bevagna, within walking distance from the beach. Bicycles are available for our guests to explore the nearby beaches of San Pietro in Bevagna, Salina dei Monaci, Torre Colimena and Punta Prosciutto. The house has six bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms. For this retreat we can host up to 10 guests.
