Castles in Italy

"The rooms are amazing. The beauty of the castle and it's surroundings is spectacular. However, the parking is sketchy at best and nobody offered to help with our bags and it's quite the walk up the hill with two or three bags. My mother actually fell leaving the property Sunday. The wet cobblestones are slick and dangerous. They have a golf cart that could shuttle guests and their bags easily"

"Perfect "

"An absolutely amazing experience to stay in a Castle is beautiful surrounds. The restoration of the 11th century castle is incredible. Step stone walkway leads up to the entrance. Francesco was a wonderful host and we had a few laughs with translation oh for technology, son Matteo was very warm and knowledgeable as we explored all the rooms of the castle. Thank you Francesco and family for sharing your wonderful castle we would love to return one day. Enjoyed meeting Heidi the mountain goat...

"This beautiful palazzo in a small remote medieval town nestled in the hills, but also close to the coast was the perfect location for our group of 20 people. The accommodation was very clean and spacious, with multiple kitchens and large living areas, perfect for group get togethers. The garden and pool area were lovely. A local bar was nearby for meals, morning coffees and pastries, with shopping about 20 minutes drive to Aulla. The communication with Mirella prior to our arrival and during...

"Our family of four stayed comfortably in the Castle's tower with unlimited access to the jacuzzi and deck space just outside the door. Maria and her team provided an exceptional, personalized experience including a tour describing the history of the Castle's beautifully restored spaces with extensive murals and tapestries. Perfect balance of being submerged in history with all of the modern comforts and conveniences. "

"Amazing place, highly recommended. Don't miss dinner at the restaurant and allow them to guide you through the wine selection. Why? Because if you are in this part of the world, wine probably had something to do with it. "

"Contrary to what some pictures might show, the rooms are not in the castle but in an annexe which was a big disappointment to us as we chose between this hotel and another one where the rooms indeed are located in the main building. You are not even allowed to access the castle as a guest. Furthermore, our room had an extremely strange layout that offered little to no privacy. And, despite being the only people in the hotel for the better part of our second day, the staff decided to do some...

"Un grand logement, spacieux, avec des terrasses, dans la tour d'un château du Xem siecle. Parfaitement équipé, literie très confortable, décoré avec goût et justesse, une vue imprenable sur les collines et les vallées de l'Ombrie. Parfait pour une retraite au calme et en pleine nature, au milieu des oliviers, des figuiers, des noyers, des amandiers, pour retrouver de la sérénité. C'est apaisant, magnifique. UN LIEU UNIQUE, que nous recommandons vivement."

"Valentina the owner was so kind in welcoming our family to the castle, and Monica was on site every day to make sure all of our needs were taken care off. Primal was a rock star cooking and cleaning and making sure our children and grand children were taken care of. There were 20 of us in our family ages ranging from 7-68 and the accommodations, the location and food was perfect for our group! It was the perfect way to end our 10 day Italian vacation spending the last 5 days at the castle in...

"El edificio principal tiene encanto y un entorno muy bonito pero la casita donde nos alojamos estaba en medio del parking y por lo tanto ninguna tranquilidad."

"We spent 2 weeks in Italy and during our stay at Palazzo di Piero we really enjoyed the service from Maria and her cooks. Berenice was very responsive and gave great service as well as a host. The Castle is definitely a place for large family gatherings or events."

"The description does not do it justice. The We plan to go back. Iacopo is a gem. He was so responsive. He helped prepare our meal as part of our cooking class, and he gave a great tour of the winery. Be sure to get up and visit the church at 8:00 a.m. on Sunday. It is worth it."

"In lieu of a wedding, we rented the castle for a long weekend family vacation. It was incredible! We had 14 people and all fit comfortably in the rooms. There are many common spaces. Giovanni recommend a wonderful private chef who we used for dinners and breakfasts. Taxis need to be booked far in advance or rent a few cars to get around. In Tuscany taxis tend to book out quickly. We had some family members traveling internationally and arriving early. Giovanni was very helpful in getting their...

"Everything was as expected and the restaurant food was amazing"

"Our week at Liliana’s beautiful Castello was a delight. We were a party of 8; two parents & 6 young adults 17-23. There was plenty of beds to go round and enough bathrooms too. The kitchen and dining room were perfect for our needs. The decor throughout is charming and reflects a true family home without feeling cluttered or intrusive. The outside spaces are even more wonderful. The half shaded veranda is very spacious and perfect for dining and lazing around. The terrace between the towers...

"Great to have a nice big place overlooking the lovely Chianti area hills. Fantastic restaurant right at the foot of the place"

"The Best of the Best! Lovely hotel and friendly staff. I love this place <3 "

"On this vacation we stayed in Rome, Gubbio, Florence, Venice and Interlaken. After we finished our trip, our whole family said the highlight of the trip by far was staying here. Rating: 5 out of 5 stars isn't enough. We're giving them 100 stars! My wife had the idea to stay in a castle and this property was perfect. We had the entire place to ourselves. We met the owners, (a husband and wife) when we arrived and they were an absolute joy! The husband spent 40 years restoring the castle and...
