Pizza Workshop in a Sardinian Villa with Dinner in Sorso
Shape, bake and savour your own pizza beneath the pine trees of a historic Sardinian villa.
This pizza making workshop in Sorso brings together the craft of traditional Italian dough-making, the warmth of a countryside villa, and a convivial al fresco dinner in a pine forest setting. It is designed for food lovers, curious travellers, and families looking for a hands-on experience that goes beyond sightseeing.
Sorso sits on the northwestern coast of Sardinia, roughly midway between Porto Torres and Castelsardo, in a landscape of rolling hills and fragrant maritime pines. The historic villa hosting this workshop is embedded in that same pine forest, giving the entire evening a calm, unhurried character that is hard to find elsewhere on the island.
The format moves from tasting to doing to eating in a natural progression. Guests first sample pizzas crafted by the resident chef, then receive hands-on instruction before shaping their own pizza. The session closes with dinner served outdoors, where participants eat what they made alongside a digestif of myrtle or limoncino — a fitting Sardinian ending to a thoroughly Italian craft.

How the Experience Unfolds
Upon arriving at the villa, the host team greets guests with a glass of sparkling wine. The atmosphere of the pine forest immediately sets a relaxed tone for the evening ahead.
Before touching the dough, guests sample two or three slices of freshly made pizza prepared by the chef. This introductory tasting illustrates the standard guests will be working toward and introduces key flavour combinations.
The chef shares the fundamentals of dough preparation, shaping and topping selection. Guests then apply the techniques themselves, shaping and building their own pizza from scratch.
With the pizzas baked, dinner is served outdoors under the pine trees. Each participant eats the pizza they made, accompanied by water and a soft drink of choice.
The meal concludes with a sweet pizza to share among the group, paired with a Sardinian digestif — myrtle liqueur or limoncino — rounding off the experience on a festive note.
