November at Poggio ai Santi is the month when our House opens up to winter and to Christmas.
Little by little we decorate it the way we like: no plastic, just branches of holm oak, rosemary, pine cones from our woods and handmade garlands. A few warm lights that set the stone glowing at sunset. Inside, the fireplaces are already lit everywhere, and the air smells of wood smoke and of the kind of food that keeps you company and warms you through.
Festive lunches and dinners
This is when we get ready to welcome you for the loveliest moments: Christmas lunches and dinners with family, long tables with friends, colleagues who want to get together somewhere real, warm and unhurried.
The big table, the sofas and the fireplaces of the House are ready, and so is the oven. We are here to listen to what you would like, with one wish only: to make you feel at home, among friends.
Outside, nature stays green
While winter turns grey elsewhere, here nature stays lush and green. These are the clearest days of the year, when you can see Corsica sharp on the horizon. Woodland walks all to yourselves, the empty beach at Rimigliano, perhaps with your dog running free beside you.
Christmas baskets
And for presents, think of good things. We are putting together the Christmas baskets from our shop: our olive oil, honey, jams from our apple trees, biscuits and herbs. Gifts that are wholesome, good and kind to nature.
Write to us: for a basket, a dinner or a celebration. The House at Poggio is open. We look forward to seeing you.
