Sustainable Luxury
Our Philosophy
Limited Environmental Impact
At Courti we endeavour to promote a zero waste, organic environment within which our biodiverse ecosystem can flourish. We endeavour to remove the use of plastic by providing water bottles and filtered drinking water to our guests. The farm within our grounds only uses organic means of pesticide control. In fact, every step we take helps the local habitats and wildlife to coexist with us in harmony.
The grounds at Courti have become a tranquil, safe haven for a variety of flora and fauna who increasingly see their habitats destroyed: hedgehogs, bumble bees, various butterflies and magnificent kites to name a few.
The Grounds
Fine Organic Produce
‘From Farm to Table’ is a phrase that belongs at The Courti Estate. Our amazing cook Liliana uses the seasonal organic produce that is picked straight from our organic farm. This is how she produces such amazing dishes that are bursting with flavour.
Whatever we can’t grow here, we source from a 1km radius of our front gates using trusted local organic suppliers. The cycle of life at Courti continues as food scraps are then used to feed the chickens and cats. Any leftover vegetable matter goes on the compost which is used to organically fertilise and nurture the farm.
During your stay, ask the staff for a tour of the farm and greenhouse. They’ll also show you the wildly growing produce that is scattered around the grounds such as chamomile and artichokes.
The Olive Groves
Cold Pressed, Top Grade, Extra Virgin Olive Oil
The olive oil produced from the ancient olive trees growing here is amongst the best oil you will ever taste. It is green, peppery and beautiful. When you stay at Courti this is the oil that will be used in the kitchen to make everything from fresh green salads to humble moussaka. It tastes like a little piece of heaven.
Our olive trees are maintained throughout the year using only organic methods. Then, during the harvesting season in November and December, the olives are hand-picked by our team. Within hours of picking, they are taken to our local olive mill where they are cold pressed to produce top grade extra virgin olive oil.
