Countryside Festive Gatherings

Spend a slow, golden winter morning with Executive Chef Delfina, wandering the Umbrian forest in search of wild mushrooms, chicory and fragrant local herbs. Then return to the warmth of the Ceci kitchen to cook together with what you have gathered, before sitting down to a leisurely lunch with a glass of local wine.

Celebrate “La Vigilia” the traditional Italian way. Welcome Christmas Eve with warm spiced wine in the village piazza, then gather at our long table by the fireplace for a candlelit dinner.

Welcome in 2027 at Ceci with live music and a celebratory feast that celebrates the finest local ingredients, from Chef Delfina’s handmade pasta to the flavours of the Umbrian winter. As the clock nears midnight, keep the Italian tradition alive with cotechino con lenticchie, said to bring good fortune for the year ahead, followed by bubbles and panettone.
