Borgo dei Gatti is much more than a stay in an albergo diffuso. It is an invitation to reconnect, slow down and embrace a gentler way of life.
At the heart of everything we offer lies the beauty of simplicity: rediscovering what truly matters and finding joy in the small pleasures of days gone by.
From one experience to the next, there is a common thread: the peaceful rhythm of village life, where time seems to slow down and every moment is meant to be savoured.
Rediscover balance and well-being with a yoga class surrounded by the peaceful beauty of the hills.
A moment entirely for yourself, dedicated to your breath, body and mind: a chance to slow down, release tension and restore a sense of harmony and lightness.
Let yourself be guided through each movement, listen to your body and enjoy the simple luxury of being fully present, far from the rush and routines of everyday life. The silence of the Borgo and the landscape surrounding it become part of the practice, creating a space where you can reconnect with your focus, energy and inner calm.
Classes are suitable for all levels, whether you wish to deepen your practice or are approaching yoga for the very first time, gently and without pressure.
Time to dedicate to yourself, to breathe more deeply and rediscover your own rhythm.
An experience dedicated to flower lovers and to anyone wishing to discover the art of transforming flowers into personal, harmonious arrangements full of character.
Surrounded by colours, fragrances, shapes and textures, you will learn how to select, combine and enhance different flowers, following the basic principles of floral design while leaving plenty of room for instinct and personal creativity.
Above all, the workshop is an invitation to work with your hands, notice the smallest details and rediscover the pleasure of creating something beautiful without rushing. No previous experience is required: everyone is free to experiment and find their own style.
Step by step, your own unique creation will take shape, ready to take home as a beautiful reminder of time spent surrounded by flowers and beauty.
Put on your apron and step into the heart of our kitchen.
Guided by our chefs, you will discover recipes, ingredients and little secrets of local culinary tradition, learning those gestures and techniques that are rarely found in cookbooks but belong to the gastronomic memory and culture of this land.
You will knead, taste, watch, ask questions and, most importantly, cook together. Because cooking, even before it is about technique, is about sharing, curiosity and the pleasure of gathering around a table.
Our cooking classes can be arranged individually, for couples or for small groups, and tailored to the experience and interests of the participants.
And finally comes the best part: sitting down together, tasting what you have prepared and sharing the simple pleasure of good food.
An E-bike is one of the most enjoyable ways to explore the Oltrepò, following quiet country roads, panoramic climbs and beautiful routes that would be a shame to travel through too quickly.
You can choose to set off independently, following itineraries we have carefully selected and suggested for you, or be accompanied by an expert guide who can create a route suited to your interests and level of experience.
The electric motor makes even the climbs easier, leaving you free to concentrate on what really matters: looking around, stopping to admire a view, visiting a winery, taking a break or simply changing direction because something along the way has caught your eye.
There is no race and no pace to keep. Just a bicycle, a road ahead, and the freedom to decide, bend after bend, how far you would like to go.
Walking is perhaps the simplest way to truly connect with a place.
With trekking and Nordic Walking, you can leave the more travelled roads behind for a few hours and follow trails, country tracks and panoramic paths accompanied by an expert guide, who will help choose the itinerary best suited to your abilities and wishes.
You may prefer the gentle pace of a walk or the more dynamic, full-body movement of Nordic Walking, with the opportunity to learn the correct technique and use of the poles.
Routes of different lengths and levels of difficulty are available, suitable both for those simply wishing to spend a few hours outdoors and for those looking for a more challenging and energetic activity.
You choose the pace. The real pleasure lies in taking the time to look around listen and reach places that, very often, can only truly be discovered on foot.
Approaching a horse, getting to know it, learning to trust it, and allowing yourself to follow its pace is something that goes far beyond a simple ride.
No previous riding experience is necessary. The instructors will be with you from the very beginning, helping you become comfortable with the horse, get into the saddle, and learn the basic techniques, always respecting your own pace and confidence.
For experienced riders, longer and more adventurous rides can be arranged, offering the chance to enjoy that extraordinary sense of freedom that comes when horse and rider begin to move together.
The rhythm changes, your gaze lifts and everyday noise seems to fade away. What remains is the sound of the horse’s footsteps, the open air and the pleasure of discovering a completely different way of travelling.
An encounter with an extraordinary animal and, perhaps, a small opportunity to rediscover something within yourself.
