Discover Inspiring Retreats in the Heart of Tuscany
Imagine yourself immersed in the stunning landscapes of Tuscany, Italy – rolling hills crowned with ancient towns, avenues of cypress trees, and bathed in golden sunlight. At Casa Ezio Marchi, we turn that dream into reality. We offer a curated selection of exclusive, small-group retreats designed to inspire, rejuvenate, and connect you with the authentic heart of Italy. Escape the everyday and explore your passions in a place of timeless beauty and warm hospitality.


Step into the Scenery of Renaissance Masters
Our beautifully restored villa, Casa Ezio Marchi, is your tranquil haven, nestled near Bettolle in the Val di Chiana. This is the heartland of Tuscany, famed as the birthplace of Renaissance artist Piero della Francesca. Breathe in the fresh country air, soak up the panoramic views stretching across the hills, and find inspiration in the same landscapes that have captivated artists, writers, and travelers for centuries. It's the perfect, peaceful backdrop for learning, relaxation, creativity, and exploration.
The Casa Ezio Marchi Experience: Intimate & Authentic
We believe in creating truly special and enriching experiences. Our retreats welcome small groups, ensuring a friendly, personalized atmosphere where you can easily connect with fellow guests and your expert tutors. From the comfortable, characterful accommodation within our lovingly restored Tuscan villa to delicious meals often featuring local, seasonal flavours, every detail is thoughtfully arranged. Our goal is to make you feel completely at home while immersing you in genuine Italian culture and renowned Tuscan hospitality.

Your Host
Born in the Dolomites, I graduated in Foreign Languages in Venice and spent thirty years abroad between England and France, working mainly as a translator and language teacher.
I am also the creator of Kitchen Lingo, an Italian cooking and language school in Sussex (check out the fantastic cooking and language courses at Casa Ezio Marchi in Tuscany!)
In 2020 I bought this wonderful farm in the Valdichiana, near Siena, where I can combine my passion for languages, nature, cuisine, art and hospitality.
Maybe you should know that around the property live some cats that I adopted, all very kind and sterilized plus a couple of Jack Russell and Freddie my old cat.
I love listening to the bells of the church of Bettolle from the garden, opening the window in the morning and filling me with light and encouraging views, taking care of the garden and picking olives to make my olive oil when it is season.
They are all very well and happy.
I hope you visit me in this corner of paradise.
