experiences

divine dining

Michelin-starred La Torre is in the former stables, but no trace of the original residents remains in the elegantly muted dining room, decorated with terracotta-tiled floors, arched ceilings and polished slate tables.

As you’d expect, the menu is a love letter to Tuscany; executive chef Giovanni Luca Di Pirro uses the finest ingredients sourced from local farmers or directly from the estate’s organic garden. The dishes are seasonally inspired, with crispy greens and fragrant herbs in spring and rich truffles and wild boar in autumn. 

sip & savour

In the former castle kitchens, the bar is an atmospheric space, all exposed red brick, flagstone floors and arched ceilings: sip a local wine with a plate of cured meat and cheeses and you’ll feel like landed Tuscan gentry.  Choose from Champagne, reserve cognacs, grappas and whiskies, or have the hotel’s expert mixologists whip up one of their enticing signature cocktails.

Perfect break away for two...
I got in touch with Natasha to organise a break away for two next year within my budget. She was so helpful and genuinely cared about what was special to me, asking lots of questions to get it spot on. It was quick to find an amazing hotel and i'm so excited. It feels amazing to have someone else plan it for me and I have complete trust that it's all in hand. I will be returning time and time again for my holidays - thank you Optimum Experience - Trust Pilot
Croatia trip booked through Kirsty
Me and my partner had a trip booked to Croatia through Kirsty and I can’t recommend Kirsty / the company enough! Start to finish the trip was perfectly organised and Kirsty went above and beyond to make our trip special. I definitely recommend using this company if you want any holidays organising as it takes the stress away from you and they can also organise all your restaurant bookings / days out / beach clubs which is perfect for us as we literally just had to turn up to the airport and everything else was sorted ! The communication and attention to detail was impeccable and there is nothing I could fault from using them. I will definitely be using Kirsty and optimum in the future for all my holiday bookings! Thanks again - Trust Pilot
Such a pleasure working with optimum
Such a pleasure working with Optimum Experience, my husband and I were looking for a trip but didn’t really know where to go. We spoke with Natasha who learned all about what we like and don’t like in a holiday and she went off and found some amazing packages for our budget. We feel safe knowing that our holiday is in great hands and any questions we had were expertly answered. Optimum Experience took the stress that can come from trying to find the right holiday away and I will happily use them again. Date of experience - Trust Pilot
Amazing service from Optimum Experience
I can't thank Kirsty and the Optimum Experience team enough for booking our holiday. From start to finish, Kirsty looked after all aspects of our booking, listening to exactly what we wanted from our holiday and leaving no stone unturned to find us the perfect hotel. Kirsty built our full package, ensuring that we didn't have to worry about sorting anything - from private transfers, and seats on the plane, to booking exclusive bars and restaurants for us, she handled it all. Kirsty has always been available for a chat or message when needed and has made our booking process seamless and totally stress free. I can't wait to book our next break with Optimum Experience!
