Set in the Tuscan countryside, The Frantoio is The Face Planner’s brand home. It's where I first thought of using its olive oil and other natural ingredients sourced directly from the estate to formulate products that get your skin glowing.
The Frantoio is an ancient olive mill, built in 1804, and is now where the manufacturing process of our products begins. Each year we hand pick and cold press the finest Tuscan olive oil to be included in our formulas along with other natural ingredients grown on the estate.
We believe that skincare is more than what you apply topically. That is why we design retreats for our customers, to take a 360 degree approach to skincare. The Frantoio is a place for rejuvenating activity and peaceful repose, the perfect place for a mind-body refresh. We offer tailored retreat programs for up to 12 guests or private bookings of the entire property.
BESPOKE TREATMENTS
A choice of our signature Face Planner facials to cleanse, nourish and awaken your skin. The products used are all Made in Italy and found in The Ultimate Plan. A variety of massages are available.
YOGA & PILATES CLASSES
Enjoy private group and/or one-on-one classes during your stay. We offer a number of yoga and pilates options, focused specifically on your goals.
ITALIAN CULINARY EXPERIENCES
A daily private chef to create nutritionally dense meals with an Italian flair. We also offer a variety of guided cooking classes.
GUIDED WALKS
The Frantoio is positioned on a hillside which allows most of our guided hiking to begin at the property. The nearby mountains of Garfagnana offer longer, more adventurous trails.
The interiors are contemporary and stylish whilst retaining the original charm of the building.
The Frantoio invites you to relax. Stroll through the olive groves; sip on a spritz; read under a shady tree; take a dip in the pool; dine alfresco on the terrace; and reset your body and mind.
RETREAT AT THE FRANTOIO
You can expect to be guided through daily movement, nourished by expert Italian chefs, treated by our holistic facialists and consulted by our renowned partners for health and nutrition.
Your wellbeing is at the heart of what we do. The Frantoio is situated on a sunny hillside in a private nine acre olive Estate. It was originally an ancient olive mill and has since been beautifully converted. The tranquil, rural location is perfect for relaxing and unwinding. The panoramic Tuscan views will quite simply take your breath away.
The signature complex of The Face Planner products - a combination of 100% cold pressed Italian oils - begins right here at The Frantoio. Our Tuscan oil complex is hand harvested and cold pressed for the freshest, most nutrient-dense oil. Your skin will thank you later.
