The sculptor who built Peralta
She bought a ruin in 1967 and spent fifteen years bringing it back to life
Fiore de Henriquez — sculptor to the Queen Mother, friend of Augustus John. Her work is still everywhere: in the grounds, on the shelves, in many of the rooms you’ll live in.
Discover her story
Long lunches under the pergola, limoncello made on the hill
A pool set on a terrace above the hamlet, gardens of olive and chestnut, and the table where it all slows down.
