Every detail of this carefully curated retreat is designed to rejuvenate your mind, body, and spirit. Awaken your body with daily Power and Yin yoga practices in our private, fully-appointed yoga room, center yourself with morning meditation and breathwork on the deck overlooking the Italian countryside, stargaze from the wood-fired hot tub, and immerse in a symphony of flavors during each meal, where every bite offers a journey to the heart of Italy.

All yoga and movement practices are suitable and scaleable for any experience level. As we always say, “Come as you are, and you will receive everything you need.”

We welcome each day with intention, exploring mindfulness practices, including meditation and energy activation breathwork to the sounds of nature on our open-air platform overlooking the Italian countryside. In addition to her 15 years of experience as a yoga instructor, Molly brings extensive experience as a meditation and breathwork teacher, delivering simple and inviting practices that you can bring home and incorporate into your wellness routine.

Through daily inquiry discussions and journaling around the hand-carved cypress table, we cultivate a tight and precious container to reflect, share and move toward clarity around what’s truly important to us. Lauren Dunne brings her expertise as both a yoga teacher and professional mental health provider to these sessions, supporting you to discover and embrace your life's purpose through a fresh lens.

Il Roccone’s proximity to world-class sites and our hosts’ extensive and established relationships with the local villages and communities present enriching opportunities to connect with local makers and experts and to discover more about the people, history, and land.

You’ll leave feeling restored, connected, and inspired.

The Roccone is the name of the rock bluff upon which a legacy farmhouse has overlooked a lush valley for over 150 years. This sprawling 321-acre property is located at the center of what is now the Pigelleto Nature Reserve. Fully renovated in 2014, our private estate for the week offers large and well-appointed shared bedrooms, each with two twin beds and shared bathrooms, a spacious dining room, a comfortable living room and kitchen, a washing machine and a dryer, a private chapel, and a hot tub with panoramic views.

From the warm embrace of Arrival Day to your mindful departure on Check-out Day, we invite you to explore, discover, and ignite your senses. Welcome to a journey that will leave you refreshed, empowered, and ready to embrace a life "On Point."
