Castelletto di Montebenichi

We recently stayed four wonderful nights here during a visit to Tuscany for a wedding. It was a privilege to stay in a 12th century castle, which has been lovingly maintained by the owner Marco and his son. They were very friendly and hospitable hosts and provided a welcome basket of goodies and a bottle of wine! Marcello even gave us a bowl of freshly picked figs from a tree in their lovely gardens. Our apartment was lovely, clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. It was very quiet and overlooked the gorgeous countryside. We enjoyed walking through the gardens and relaxing by the pool, and having the excellent laundry facilities onsite near the pool area was an added bonus! There's also a restaurant just a short stroll away from the apartments serving traditional cuisine, which was very convenient, we dined there two nights during our stay. We highly recommend staying here for a unique and memorable experience.

A beautiful castle from the 12th century. The owner is a very pleasant and communicative person. beautiful and clean apartments, welcome basket, secured parking, dogs allowed. near the city of Siena. the owner has a list of the best restaurants in the area, which means a lot. the swimming pool and surroundings of the castle are arranged on a level. coming again 100%

We had a fantastic stay here in the Tuscan countryside, the only problem is that we didn’t stay long enough. The apartment was extremely clean, the grounds were immaculate, and the silence was golden- hard to explain. We felt like we were at our new Tuscan country house after Day 2. It was actually quite sad to leave, and we hope to return one day. We will tell our friends about this place- we can’t thank Marco and Marcello enough.
