Escape to Tuscany This Winter

Stop the presses! For the very first time since its opening, Karma Borgo di Colleoli is going to be open well into the Winter season – bringing you the opportunity to experience the renaissance wonders and relaxed rural rhythms of gorgeous Tuscany all the way through until January next year! There’s so much to recommend Tuscany in the Winter months – here are just a few of the upsides to whet your appetite…

Tuscany’s Fabulous Fungi: Truffle Season

The Winter season in Tuscany is synonymous with truffles – the much coveted fungi that are a culinary treasure across the globe. Karma Borgo di Colleoli is strategically located amidst truffle-rich forests, offering you the opportunity to participate in truffle hunting expeditions and to sample traditional truffle-infused dishes.

It’s Tuscany…but tranquil!

Unlike the bustling Summer months, Winter transforms  Tuscany – including its iconic cities like Florence and Pisa – into a peaceful haven,  devoid of the heaving Summer crowds., You can explore the charming towns, vineyards, and historic landmarks at your leisure and you won’t have to worry so much about finding a table at the many amazing eateries across the region.

A cosy & historic retreat

Karma Borgo di Colleoli’s historic charm, with its stone walls and crackling fireplaces, sets the perfect stage for a Winter escape – albeit a much milder one than you’d find in Northern Europe!  Whether you’re enjoying a glass of regional wine by the fire,  strolling through  the manicured gardens, or simply relaxing in your elegant suite with breathtaking views of the Tuscan countryside, you’ll find your stay warm and inviting.

Journey into Renaissance History

Venture to Florence, Lucca or Pisa to uncover their legendary Renaissance treasures. Florence offers the magnificent Uffizi Gallery and the awe-inspiring Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, providing a glimpse into the era’s remarkable art and culture. In Lucca, enjoy the amazing Piazza Dell’ Anfiteatro, while in Pisa, the Leaning Tower stands as a testament to mediaeval architectural ingenuity.

Festive Traditions

Immerse yourself in the heartwarming traditions of the region. Attend local festivals, savour traditional Winter delights like chestnuts and vin brulé (mulled wine), and admire the captivating nativity scenes that grace towns and churches, celebrating the spirit of the season.
