The property accommodates up to 60 guests across its three on-site properties, which together provide 15 bedrooms sleeping 32 people.
This place is truly paradise. I hosted an acting retreat at Rignana. It couldn't have been more ideal and inspirational. The food, accommadation and care was exceptional. Alessandra and Pippa went above and beyond to care and cater to our needs. The location was perfect , the accommodation beautiful, the addition of the animals a real comforting presence. The church where we worked inspiring and the location restorative and invigorating. It is a rare find and we will be back again next year.
