Our Story

Our story started many years ago, when we started dreaming of a better life, but it came into fruition as we matured. As group of friends—professionals living between London Rome Bologna we've spent years traveling, discovering hidden corners of the world, searching for that perfect moments, until we had the realisation that better does not always come with more, more luxurious, more expensive or more glitzy. It’s a lot simpler than that, better is something that’s more authentic. In this case, to quote an old adage, less is more. So in our circle of life it took us back to our beginnings, when things were simpler, smiles were real and relaxation much soother. So we set ourselves a challenge: Is it possible to recharge without disconnecting? Could we become more productive by relaxing or do we go completely off grid to chase the elusive serenity.

Our Vision

Our Vision

We’ve renovated an old house in the historic village of Rapone into a guesthouse with coworking and coliving facilities, inspired by the wabi-sabi philosophy: simple, warm, imperfect, and deeply human. But this is more than just a space. It’s a lifestyle invitation to reconnect with your natural pace, to work without burnout, and to let inspiration come from your surroundings—not your inbox. We’re surrounded by forests, the Valle del Vulture hills, and centuries of folklore. Rapone is known as “the village of fairy tales”, part of a region that inspired authors like Giambattista Basile and, indirectly, the Brothers Grimm. The village celebrates this heritage with storytelling trails, murals, and local myths. We believe when you give your inner child space to breathe—you create better, work better, and live better.

What We Offer

Whether you're here for a weekend, a workation, or a long-term coliving experience, we offer the ideal environment for focused work, deep rest, and meaningful connection:

6 individually designed bedrooms, all with private bathrooms, minibars, kettles, and beautiful views of the green Vulture valley.

 

Wabi-sabi inspired interiors: warm textures, natural materials, calming spaces.

 

Each room is a personal retreat within a shared experience.

Multiple coworking zones with ergonomic desks, high-speed internet, and views that beat any office window.

Meeting rooms for collaboration or privacy.

 

Informal lounges and quiet corners for reading, chatting, or simply being.

Shared kitchen in the garden where guests can cook, share meals, or host creative dinners.

 

Meditation, reading and relaxation rooms designed to help you slow down.

Community events: storytelling nights, garden dinners, local walks, and more.

A garden where you can plant, grow, and ground yourself—literally.

Access to Rapone’s fairy tale trail and Basilicata’s cultural gems.

 

The perfect balance of remote peace and rooted community.
