il Vespaio la nostra Guest House

VISIT AND STAY AT HERMITAGE "IL VESPAIO"

The Hermitage il Vespaio is located at an altitude of 850 meters in the heart of the Aquerino National Park in the province of Prato. It's our "guesthouse".

It is a unique place, a hermitage inhabited by a religious community of hesychasts, where you can spend a time of peace and silence away from the noise of everyday life in majestic isolation in the Bisenzio nature reserve.

Esterno del Vespaio

... where night and day many animals come to visit us. The Hermitage is a few kilometers from Cantagallo (Prato) and is known as "Cascina il Vespaio". It is at the center of a wonderful natural park and the silence with the great energy is what enchants the visitor. It has been refurbished and houses some members of the community.

A place of prayer, meditation and production immersed in nature and connected with the Divine. You can also stay outside of a retreat by booking and you can eat with the community, always by calling: 055 0106425 or email
