In terms of views, 2025 had a stunning start!

In this period we have the most beautiful sunrises. They only last for a couple of minutes, so you need to be lucky and quick to catch them. Lucky us that we have to go out to find our diabetes cat early every morning...

We had to let go of our sweetest dog Jane 💔🖤❤️‍🩹
In spite of the bad weather conditions and holidays last week, we tried everything we could to to save her...unfortunately without success...

She was one of the puppies we rescued in 2017, so she has been with us for quite a while. She was sweet, patient, modest, clumsy enthusiastic and so much more. Of the 4, she was in the lead to watch over us and our guests and appeared the most maremmano.

We miss her like grazy already. Her monkey eyes, her happy curly head, her positive presence...The remaining 3 dogs are timid and have to find a new balance together.

She will be in our hearts for ever! 💞

We find ourselves posting much more on instagram (https://www.instagram.com/agriturismocolpodifortuna) then on Facebook! About time for some updates here...😅

We can look back at a long and nice 2024 season, with great new and returning guests and good reviews!

In autumn for the first time this year, our olive harvest was big enough to go to the 'frantoio' on our own. Our extra vergine olive oil tastes great: grassy on the nose and spicy in the mouth. For interested guests: we sell it as well.

Outdoors we have prepared most areas already for winter and storm (which we had already twice, with some limited damage). The winter pruning of the garden is also almost done. Quite a job, considering the size and the amount of plants, but worth it so that our 2025 guests can fully enjoy it's beauty again next season!

In terms of activities our time and focus has been shifting again to interior design, woodworking/furniture making and the bag business (Marleen's Design, Joefster & Co, PAUL MECCANICO). Soon we will have more news about that as well.

During autumn, while heading towards winter, the views here have been spectacular again!!

Some photo impressions that go with the writing...

The season at Colpo di Fortuna is in full swing...also this year we have some novelties/improvements which we will soon share via our newsletter (subscriptions are possible via the website https://colpodifortuna.eu/).

The garden is in great shape after a lot of hard work and filled with beautiful flowers, bees and butterflies. A true feast for the eyes!

We do have some last minute availability; DM us for information when interested!

Time for some updates!! Getting ready for the season...

The very mild and dry winter, followed by a wetter and colder period in April (with even snow in the mountains), has given us a lot of outdoor work to get ready for the season! Nature blossomed early, got interrupted by the cold and is now on a growth spurt with a variety of rain and sun...
The swimmingpool cover is currently occupied by many tadpoles, that will have to hurry up as we will open the pool next week. Wild orchids in the grass benefit from a broken lawn mower.
In between hard work, we still try to find the time to enjoy precious Italian moments with good food and good company.

In between we have also been to Milan for the annual largest interior fair Salone del Mobile, to get inspiration for our design and woordworking/furniture business!
