Il Borgo della Colomba is a place of the spirit, far from the stresses of the city; a place of learning which offers courses in organic cooking, excursion into the sorrounding natural areas and many other opportunities. Here are a few:
- Courses in natural cooking: the gifts of a natural and an organic kitchen; practical applications with recipes from local traditions.
- A place of learning: for school groups, for vacationers, for people of all ages and abilities.
- Center for Well-Being: upon request, qualified staff can organize exercise in well-being. they can conduct lessons in massage and arrange a variety of treatments (manicures, pedicures, facials, and others).
- The source of the Calcandola, the stream that ran the old mill:
excursions to the source run 4-6 hours in duration and terminate in a dinner at the country house.
- The Chestnut: a day in the wood spent collecting chestnuts, followed by the preparation of typical chestnut dishes of the region.
The atmosphere that surrounds Il Borgo della Colomba is semply
bucolic. Nothing is amiss; the pictoresque mountain stream that tumbles past the country house, the medieval bridge which conveyed to the mill pilgrims of the old, the beautiful sweep of green that descends from the hillside to the lawn that encircles the beautifully renovated old mill.
Il Borgo della Colomba is the ideal location from which to discover the beauty and the ambience of the marvelous area that is Lunigiana.
