CERAMIC WORKSHOP IN TUSCANY
Located about 9 km north of Siena is La Gavina - a small, family-run organic farm and inn in the countryside. For over 30 years, they have welcomed guests with warmth and simplicity among Tuscan hills, oak forests, olive trees and meadows.
The medieval building was renovated with the intention of retaining the original architecture and character. The interior is decorated with typical rustic original furniture and still retains the expression of the old country houses.
Now they have opened their doors to us and invite you to a magical week of ceramics, good food and fantastic views!
