Sunday Lazy Pool Side BBQ Brunch
During season, join us every Sunday for our lazy barbecue brunch by the pool, with unlimited food and drink and light chill out sounds from 11:30am until 4pm. A BBQ fit for a king, with personally selected Tuscan meats and vegetables from local farms, home made salads, sides & desserts together with local wines, beers, soft drinks with an optional cocktail & spirit menu. Take a refreshing dip in the pool between bites, or relax on the loungers to soak up the sun. Now this is what a holiday in Tuscany is all about!
Tuesday Pizza & Focaccia Making Class
Ever wondered how the Italians make such amazing bread? Every Tuesday we invite a local chef to La Torre to teach our guests how to make Pizza and Focaccia from scratch. Starting in the afternoon, of course with a glass of Prosecco, you will learn from the professional about setting up the outdoor wood oven, making the dough, choosing the toppings and the art of using the oven. Then, you will enjoy your dinner with some home cooked starters and deserts, together with local beer and wine. A fun evening of socialisation, and who knows, maybe the start of a new career?

Set on our English lawn, in front of the house, you will enjoy an evening Tuscan picnic with a selection of cold and hot local farm fresh dishes, served from our kitchen, together with local wines. Then at sunset, we start a movie of choice on our purpose built screen in the garden, with our immersive surround sound system. Blankets and beanbags are readily available, all you have to do is relax and enjoy the atmosphere, under the Tuscan evening sun.
Harvest Week Experience
22nd September - 5th October 2025
In late September and early October we have reserved 2 weeks for a special Harvest Experience for guests who are particularly interested in winemaking. You can join us in the farm as we hand harvest our grapes, watch and learn about how we process the grapes after picking and understand how this process directly affects the taste of the wine. You will get to taste the grapes & juice as it goes through its process of fermentation, learn how we measure the sugar content and how it affects the alcohol. You will leave with a complete understanding of how wine is made, from plant to bottle. We will also give special wine tasting lessons depending on your existing experience.
Gay Week
Of course we are completely LGBTQI+ friendly at all times, however, we recognise that some of our community prefer holidaying with others of the community, so we will pre-reserve dates to enjoy together. Watch out for the special events we will organise.
Murder Mystery 3 Day Event
15th - 17th October 2025
Who doesn’t love a murder mystery? Well, here is a very unique opportunity to come and live in one. Hosted over 3 days and 2 nights, you will be transported into an Agatha Christie novel, using your own, but maybe slightly exaggerated, personality (no acting required). Full of surprises, twists and turns it will be your job to identify who the killer is and what their motive might be. A real life game of Cluedo where you can trust no one. We are going to have so much fun creating this and we hope to make a lifetime memory for you.
