"The whole experience was a magnificent feast from beginning to end. Not only was it a feast for ones eyes, taste buds and senses but also for ones soul. Nature if loved and looked after really heals your body, mind and spirit and Marco has and is doing this with his land and all his friends, staff and connections. The hotel was so beautiful, every inch of it was restored by master craftsmen and it just sparkled. We were nourished and nurtured by the wonderful Marie Therese, Sarah and Pierre Luigi.  We visited the vineyard and winery, tasted samples of the wines in situ seeing the journey that the grapes go through. We also went to the best cheese maker who also owns Casa Lawrence, - he was amazing. It was like something out of all the books and movies I have seen about Italy. Marco sources the finest of the finest and shares it with his guests, it is like an insiders look into how good food can be. Just loved Giuseppe's pizza's and I am very fussy about pizza's. We were also treated to a day at Sperlonga , oh my word, we had sun loungers waiting for us followed by a scrummy lunch on the beach. Wherever we went we arrived as strangers but were treated like friends, I just love the open hearts of the people. I believe it is a reflection of the beauty of their land . If you want to see how good life can be then go and see the magic for yourself."
