Retreats in Tuscany · For small groups

Where your retreat finds depth

A living place, between woods and silence,
where nature, space, and energy create an ecosystem that supports every transformation.

When the place truly makes a difference

Some places merely host, while others actively participate. At La Gualda Vecchia, your retreat isn't confined to a room; it expands into nature. 

Here, silence is a tangible presence, the air is purified by the woods, and the rhythm naturally slows down. In this setting, participants effortlessly release tension, allowing your teachings to be received more directly, deeply, and lastingly.

The exclusivity of intimacy: a space for real transformation

We have chosen to host only small groups to ensure an atmosphere of absolute presence and listening. It’s not about numbers, but quality: fewer distractions mean more authentic relationships and inner work that can go deeper. 

At La Gualda Vecchia, every participant is seen, every voice is heard.

A 16th Century Farmhouse suspended between memory and nature

The walls of La Gualda Vecchia hold centuries of life, rituals, and shared work with the land. This ancestral energy is still palpable among the garden paths and under the large trees. 

Today, our Emotional Garden amplifies this memory through symbolic geometries and sensory paths. It is not merely a landscape backdrop but an active element that integrates into your retreat process, guiding every step towards awareness.

Authentic spaces designed for well-being

Accommodation is divided into two independent apartments, renovated using only natural materials: stone, wood, and local traditional fabrics. We have eliminated all industrial standardization to offer you an environment that you feel, not just use.

Where your retreat finds depth

The beating heart of our practices is our 50 sqm Yurt. Nestled in greenery, it offers a circular structure that is acoustically perfect and energetically powerful. Equipped with a wooden floor, infrared heating, and a complete yoga kit (eco-friendly mats, blocks, and blankets), it is the ideal space for those seeking concentration, listening, and total connection with the natural element.

Invisible support for total focus

Nothing is left to chance. 

Our cuisine is an act of care: vegetarian and organic dishes, prepared with seasonal ingredients that often come directly from our garden. Vital nourishment that sustains the body without weighing it down.

From logistics to discreet support during your stay, our task is to make every moment flow smoothly, allowing you and your group to remain focused solely on your journey.
