Our story

What if you can’t find an epic, one-of-a-kind venue? You build your own.

So that’s exactly what we did.

2020 → 2024

Engaged, and nowhere that felt like us.

We got engaged in 2020 and went looking for the right spot. We never found it.

Venue after venue felt like a conveyor belt: time slots, fine print and the next couple already waiting at the gate. So in 2024 we found an old manor house in the hills of Le Marche, fell for it at the top of the driveway and built our own. A place where a wedding is about love again.

That’s why we only host about ten stays a year. Every couple, family and group gets the whole estate and our full attention. You’re our guest, never a number.
