Activities

While your stay with us, we are proud to give you a taste of our wines, our olive oil and our honey .
As you like, we walk you through our vineyards and olive grows and show you where our bees do their magic. In the end of July, when the hot summer sun burned down most of the flowers and buds, you can witness the extraction of their work and watch the further production. Afterwards we drop into our wine cellar, where you will have the chance to try our latest wines, resting in our oak wood barrels.

Hungry after that, enjoy yourself in our nice, sunny garden. Feel free to pick some tomatos and other vegetables from our garden, or lite up the grill standing ready for a good oldfashioned BBQ.
Should you stay with us at the end of September, you can watch the harvest of the grapes and the first steps of the wine making process. At the end of October till early in November you can see and pick with us the olive and bring them with us to the mill.
Of course all our rooms got heating, but we know, in colder nights there’s nothing more romantic than a nice fire smoldering in the fire place. Just take the wood you need!
