INFO

Accommodation at Case Vecchie or one of the nearby cottages, shuttle from/to Roccapalumba train station, indicated lessons, meals, wine and excursions.

Lunch and dinner are served with wines from the Tasca d’Almerita estate. Typical meals and cooking lessons include three or four courses.

Unfortunately we cannot host people with celiac disease or a vegan diet. This is due to the lack of availability of special ingredients in our rural and isolated location.

Airfare and private transportation to and from Case Vecchie are not included in the cost. At the time of booking, please let us know if you would like to book a ride to and from the estate. 

Signature Stays

Our signature four-night stay at Case Vecchie is an invitation to slow down and settle into the rhythms of rural Sicily. Here, surrounded by rolling wheat fields and ancient olive groves, you’ll explore the island’s food landscapes: through the ingredients, the stories, and the people who tend them. But it’s also a time to rest. To breathe deeply. To let the pace of the land reshape your own.

Case Vecchie is a home, and those who join us become family.
You’ll share meals crafted from the season’s harvest, learn hands-on in the kitchen, and sit at long tables where conversation lingers as long as the light. This is a place for those who seek something deeper than tourism—an experience where food becomes connection, and Sicily reveals itself slowly, bite by bite.

Your stay includes two hands-on cooking classes, three shared lunches, four abundant breakfasts, and four seasonal dinners—each designed to introduce you to the breadth of Sicilian cuisine and local ingredients. Meals are paired with Tasca d’Almerita wines, and you’ll visit the nearby Tenuta Regaleali winery, where the Tasca family’s wine journey began in the 1950s—on the very land where Case Vecchie stands today.

So you can't stay the whole time? We offer a shorter stay of two nights, check-in on Monday afternoon on select dates. You will follow the same program as our signature stay.
