Singers Abroad

All rooms at Palazzo Guglielmo are unique, and due to the historic nature of the building, are particularly well suited to those sharing. The Singers Abroad course costs £1245 per person sharing a room with private bathroom (£1145 for non-singing partners, subject to availability).  For those willing to share use of one bathroom between two bedrooms, there is a limited number of rooms at a reduced rate of £1145 per person sharing the room (£1045 for non-singing partners).  For single-occupancy, subject to availability, there is a supplement of £38 per night to the above rates.  A deposit of £250 per person is required when booking, which is non-refundable after the deadline of 1 May 2024.  The full balance is required by 1 July 2024.
