I spent a week at the Fratta Art House to take their lathe making course. The place is easy to reach and, once you arrive, it is enchanting. It is a stone structure with a beautiful and large garden; I immediately loved the weeping willow with the small fish pond. To welcome me, as soon as I arrived, I found their four-legged puppies, three cats, a canine and a dog. I stayed in the lovely studio apartment, which is spacious and welcoming, equipped with everything you need. Elisabetta is a friendly and always helpful host, upon my arrival she also made me find the necessary things for breakfast and something that I could need. I appreciated the lathe course which, for being my first experience, exceeded my expectations; Luca is a really good teacher, patient and approachable, but still focused on the goal, that of making you learn as best as possible. La Fratta Art House is the perfect place for those who love art, nature and animals. I will return soon to finish what I started on the course, and I will certainly return in the future. Really recommended!
