Montegufoni

It was a magical stay with the best staff. It seemed like a dream to stay in such a beautiful castle.

Fantastiskt boende i historisk miljö. Vi kände oss kungligt bemötta och servicen var fenomenal. Perfekt ställe att utgå ifrån om man ska upptäcka Toscana - nära till vackra städer som San Gimignano, Siena och Florens och nära till en mängd vingårdar i området Chianti. Sista kvällen åt vi fantastisk mat med ypperlig service i slottets egna restaurang. Högsta betyg!

Excellent séjour.
Accueil chaleureux, le lieu est exceptionnel.

Het is waanzinnig verblijven in dit schitterende kasteel! Je stapt een ansichtkaart in, het kasteel is schitterend, net zoals het uitzicht. De staff is ontzettend vriendelijk en behulpzaam en in het restaurant kun je heel lekker dineren. Een geweldige uitvalsbasis in Toscane!

We got a bit unlucky with the weather in October. It rained a lot and so we didn't spend as much time enjoying the beautiful grounds or the lovely pool or simply walking in the hills as we had hoped to. We mostly used the castle as a base from which to explore Florence, Siena, Pisa (all about an hour's drive away) and even Venice (3hr drive). Technically, for this trip at this time of year, a little Airbnb in Florence would have been a better choice for us. However, Montegufoni is absolutely beautiful, our apartment in the castle was spacious, clean, quiet and felt very private. We enjoyed our time there thoroughly. We failed to note that no basic supplies are provided in the kitchen (such as sugar, salt, coffee etc., and you have to bring your own toilet paper, too. Not a problem, just good to know.) Highly recommend a car! Very friendly and helpful staff, great (dinner) restaurant, accurate pics - we wouldn't hesitate to recommend this stay to anyone, ideally in fine weather :)

We had a great stay here, beautiful views and comfortable accommodation. The restaurant is great too with lovely, friendly staff.

Such a beautiful location. It was peaceful. Exploring the castle was very interesting and fun. The food is so delicious. Definitely will return to the castle again and I wish we had longer. Our apartment was very cute, we enjoyed cooking and eating together. The only thing I would say is that it’s important to hire a car. This was recommended by the staff and hiring a car was a good decision.

Our place was great, we had a beautiful stay. The place was gorgeous and clean. It’s a old castle but with very beautiful grounds. We were a family group of nine. The stairs were quite steep and hard to get to the forth floor but worth it. Beautiful views of the Tuscan hills.

Amazing place to stay - it was like something out of a film! We arrived late due to flights and check in was super easy with the host giving clear instructions. We didn’t actually rent a car and used the local bus instead, which was super easy and reliable (although we did get a taxi from the airport when we landed). The restaurant, food and staff were amazing! Couldn’t recommend more.

Wir genossen den Aufenthalt sehr. Eine räumlich grosszügige, vielfältige, herrschaftliche historische Anlage mit vielen Aufenthaltsorten ausserhalb der Wohnung und einem sehr schönen Garten. Auch das Abendessen im Freien im Restaurant, welches jeweils am Abend offen hatte, war sehr gastfreundlich und mit gutem Essen. Bei Fragen wurde gerne geholfen. Ein Auto ist sinnvoll, da etwas abgelegen.

Wie im paradies und einfach nur zu empfehlen. Es ist so wie man sich die Toskana vorstellt mit einem tollen Ausblick in die Weiten. Das Castello hat einfach seinen eigenen Charm. Die mitarbeiterinnen sind sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. das essen im hauseigenen Restaurant ist sehr lecker mit einem tollen preisleistungsverhöltnis. Kann es empfehlen… nur bringt zur vorsicht mückenschutzmittel mit.

Unique place and history, the air was clean and cool although elsewhere it was +30C. The common areas and La Torre weren’t overly decorated.

We enjoyed our stay tremendously, free parking right at the location, great facility and surroundings, would come back again in a heartbeat!

This place is so beautiful it is beyond words. The staff in both reception and the restaurant are sweet and kind! I wanted to give it 5 stars but unfortunately we ran into a couple problems i won’t list them all here! We were expecting to stay in the castle (and we did have access to it) but not one of the rooms inside of it. The room we did have in a building next to it was really nice and clean and cute! Also I think it’s VERY important to note that if you are going to stay here you should have a car as public transportation is not reliable and a taxi is around 100€ to go anywhere from here! The only other thing was that we received a packet after checking in with a lot more information and rules about the stay than what is listed here on airbnb. I think that a lot of them apply more to people staying a long duration.

Stunning location with the most beautiful grounds. We were a little nervous about the reviews but so pleased we went anyway. The castle felt like we had gone back in time. The pool was clean. The restaurant at night was convenient. Wish our car was smaller to navigate the tricky roads, but that’s everywhere in Chianti. You need a car to stay here. No salt/ pepper/ coffee or oil, so make sure to do a full shop if you want to spend anytime for meals at the accom. There aren’t a lot of choices for breakfast etc. it would have been great if this was available. Loved our stay all in all!!

We had a great time staying at the Castello. Well located, beautiful area and gorgeous amenities. There’s also a nice restaurant on spot that we went to twice! Highly recommend staying here. Made for quite a unique experience during our time in Tuscany!

The Montegufonni 1B was a beautiful place to stay. With a nice design and exquisite details, we spent three amazing days there.

Amazing place :-)

The place is a bit tricky to get to if you're not used to driving on country roads, however, this is what makes it a bit more special. The location is beautiful , really nice surroundings, the castle itself is great and you must do a little explore, and there's also a nice little village next to it where we had a great lunch in a family run café with local dishes and wines. Within 5 minutes walk the opposite direction, you will find a great restaurant in an old monastery which is on the pricier side but very good value Getting to Florence took around 20 minutes and within For Italian standards, the rooms were a little tired and found some dried mosquitoes on the tiles, but generally clean. The pool was a great addition to the stay despite only using once due to the bad weather during our stay. The reception lady was very friendly and informative, the only thing that was miscommunicated was with the delivery of a birthday cake which we ended up receiving the day after

My fiancé and I had a great stay at the castle. I would recommend to stay in the cooler months - as there is no air conditioning. August was very hot - there were two fans inside, however, it felt like blowing warm air around vs cooling down. I guess this is to be expected at a castle! The bed was also a bit firm for our liking. Limited toilet paper available, you have to take out your garbage, and supply your own cooking essentials such as salt, sugar, coffee, etc. Not ideal if you are only staying a few days. Otherwise, it was a pleasant experience. The on-site restaurant was lovely. If you are looking for a secluded getaway in the Tuscany countryside, this is a great option!

Tolle ruhige Lage. Leider sehr weinig bis gar keine Abstellmöglichkeiten im Bad.

A gorgeous castle with a really interesting history. The views are stunning and the location is ideal. The restaurant is absolutely phenomenal too. The only drawback is that this unit is on the top floor of an old, not very well ventilated castle and the nights are insufferable during a heat wave, even with the fans provided. Also, the one bathroom has a sewage odor.

Wunderschönes Apartment in einer traumhaft schönen Burg. Wir hatten eine wundervolle Zeit dort.

Air Condition was missing. The apartment was very generous and nice. The castle is also a very nice place.

I knew we were staying in a castle but I was pleasantly surprised with how nice and large the rooms are. We had room 29 and the entry was into the kitchenette and sitting area with a large dining table. The bathroom was beautiful and very nicely updated. the beams in the main bedroom were absolutely stunning and then to walk out on the terrace overlooking the pool and gardens were so serene. We will definitely be back, such a wonderful experience at Montegufoni!!!

Exceptional!! Exceed our expectations and we loved every minute of our 4 nights in the castle! We loved our villa, very specious, well equipped, had a nice outdoor area for just us. Laundry machine close by with drying racks ready to use. The front desk manager was delightful and so welcoming! Restaurant on-site was fantastic, we had 2 nights there and loved both meals and the staff were so friendly and fun! My 8 year old loved her time at the resort, especially the pool! The pool was gorgeous and you just can’t beat the amazing gardens/scenery. We took a few day trips off property and it was a great location to get back to Florence (35 mins), and explore Tuscany towns! We truly loved our stay and we can’t wait to get back!

Très bon séjour à Montegufoni. Le Castello est incroyable, les alentours toscans sont superbes, le restaurant très bon avec du personnel très sympa et la piscine géniale! Il manquait juste un peu d'équipement"de base" même si cela était signalé : une éponge, du sel et du poivre.

Très bien situé je recommande ce logement

Un endroit magique, tout ce que nous attendions en Toscane: très belle demeure historique, très bon restaurant et un personnel au top ! Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir

Wow! - that was our reaction when we arrived at the Villa. It is a stunning place with an amazing history. The reception team were super helpful and friendly and did everything they could do to make our stay enjoyable. Their onsite restaurant is open for evening meals, and the food and service was incredible. Our spacious apartment (family of 4) looked out over the grounds and pool and was such a beautiful view to wake up to. The apartment had a well equipped kitchen and was a perfect place to have a breakfast of local cakes and bread! The only thing to note is that not all the rooms have air conditioning (its a historical villa so popping the units on the walls would look terrible! ) They did have fans though and they kept the room cool at night for us. We have recommended the Villa to all of our friends and family already and will definitely go back again. A massive thank you to all of the staff there for making our stay so wonderful :)

O castelo é bem conservado, há também um restaurante no local, que precisa de reserva, que serve pratos muito bons. Eles contam com uma piscina bem grande também. O mercado mais próximo estava a 20 minutos de carro.

Beautiful place for families and we’ll furnished. The swimming pool was just epic for the kids to enjoy after a long day of hiking. Staff is really friendly and provided us with great suggestions and tips. Make sure to bring your groceries for breakfast and lunch as the restaurant only opens for dinner. Nice restaurant though! We’ll definitely book this place again.

Amazing place! So happy to have had the experience of living inside this historic landmark. As can be expected in a centuries old castle, comfort is not at four star hotel level, we were there doing a heatwave and did miss A/C, but the staff was accommodating and provided a third electric fan. The restaurant is very very good, the staff very friendly, the gardens jaw-droppingly beautiful. Definitely highly recommended!!

L'emplacement est incroyable avec une vue sublime sur la campagne. Le restaurant est très bon et le personnel très sympathique. Il s'en serait fallu de peu pour un séjour parfait. Malheureusement mauvaise odeur persistante dans le logement, visiblement déja repérée puisqu'il y avait un diffusseur de désodoriasant automatique..... Ce logement est à considérer comme un hotel et non un airb'n'b. Equipement minimal de la cuisine avec aucun produit sauf un échantillon de produit vaiselle. Si il est compréhensible que le logement soit sombre puisque dans un vieux chateau, il l'est moins qu'il y ait si peu d'éclairage. Une seule lampe de chevet dans la chambre et sur la lampe d'appoint de la cusine une ampoule manquante.

Nous avons passé un merveilleux séjour à Montegufoni. Le château est très beau et dans un cadre magnifique et très calme, le personnel es très accueillant.

We loved our stay at La Grotta. It’s a beautiful apartment, and the reception staff were lovely. We would have liked if there was more lighting in all the rooms however, as they were very dark. Also would be great to have mosquito plug-ins in the walls.

Super Lage, nur 35 Minuten von Florenz. Tolle „Schlossatmosphäre“, sehr idyllische Plätze u.A. auch im Restaurant oder der Bar mit wunderschönem Ausblick. Die Kommunikation vorher und vor Ort war freundlich, schnell und unkompliziert. Wir hatten ein kleines Häuschen direkt am Parkplatz (das war uns vorher bekannt). Einziges Manko: Die Ausstattung der Küche war sehr einfach und der kleine Garten mit Blick auf den Parkplatz lud nicht gerade zum Verweilen ein, aber dafür gibt es im Schloss ausreichend andere schöne Plätze um sich aufzuhalten.

Beautiful place. Stunning grounds and views. Will definitely be back!

Lieu vraiment magnifique et au calme. La piscine est top. Le restaurant et vraiment très bon et le personnel qui y travaille est adorable.
Logement très propre. Nous avons adoré notre séjour et gardons l'adresse si nous repassons dans la région

l'environnement est magnifique dans le chateau de Montegufoni, avec ses cours, jardins et vues. L'appartement est spacieux, et la terrasse permet de profiter du soleil au petit dejeuner, l'équipement est vraiment minimal dans la cuisine, et aucun produit n est fourni, vous pouvez tout acheter dans une commune voisine. Le restaurant ouvert le soir est très bon et propose aussi des options gluten free très appréciées. La piscine est très agréable.

The most beautiful castle in the hills with fabulous staff running it. Ready to help for day trips advise and local shopping. Just a fabulous place surpassed my expectations. Very beautiful and tranquil with a great pool.

Bien que mentionné dans le descriptif, nous aurions apprécié une cuisine mieux équipée, il est difficile de cuisiner pour une famille, l’espace cuisine étant minuscule Le restaurant est sympa mais cela revient un peu cher d’aller au restaurant tous les jours L’appartement manque de prise et il faut choisir entre un ventilateur, une lampe de chevet ou charger son téléphone Cependant l’endroit est magique, l’environnement merveilleux, à 30 minutes en voiture de Florence

We had a really relaxing holiday here - loved the gardens, table tennis and pool area - and the cocktails on the terrace in the evening. Great restaurant and lovely staff too.

A very beautiful location to relax and enjoy the beauty of an old castle. Wifi access is limited but this was for us no problem. I can highly recommend it!

We had an incredible stay at Montegufoni Castle. A special and surreal experience to stay in a place with such history. The room was very spacious, and the view from the room was a wonderful surprise. We could see the rolling hills of Tuscany from all windows. No air con but the fans kept us very cool and the room is on the bottom floor. Quiet area but great surrounds for wine tasting and exploring by car. Beautiful pool to relax after a day out in the region. Lovely restaurant at the castle and local restaurants. We enjoyed every minute!

Wir wurden sehr herzlich begrüsst und erhielten viele Tips für Unternehmungen in der Umgebung sowie Einkaufsmöglichkeiten etc. Das Schloss bietet einen fantastischen Ausstieg aus dem Alltag. Das Restaurant serviert sehr gutes Essen und das Zimmer beinhaltet alles was man braucht.

Das Schloss in dem unser Zimmer war ist wirklich toll! Man hat einen traumhaften Ausblick von der Terasse! Dem alten Gebäude geschuldet ist es, dass das Zimmer sehr dunkel ist. Unser Zimmer hatte Fliegengitter, was viel wert ist! Das Badezimmer ist in die Jahre gekommen. Der Aufenthalt dort war aber wirklich toll auf Grund des ganzen drum herums! Der Pool war immer gut besucht. In dem Restaurant muss immer reserviert werden, das Essen ist sehr lecker gewesen also lohnt es sich. Die Anlage an sich war zu jeder Zeit sehr sauber.

A spectacular setting to enjoy the Tuscan surrounds. The pool was lovely and the building is extraordinary. Perfect.

The old castello, the yards and the garden are really stunning. Also the view from the terrace overlooking the area is breathtaking. The bedrooms in the apartement are clean and tastefully furnished with respect for the history of the place, while the kitchen is rather dark. We stayed during a heatwave in July and beforehand we were nervous that there was no aircon, but the staff in the reception was really kind to provide us with several fans that worked surpricingly well during the hot nights. Remember to bring toiletpaper, soap, dishwasher soap, exstra dish cloths, salt/pepper etc. We didn’t know that, but again the staff helped us out untill we could drive to a supermarket.

It was a beautiful place to stay and it was so peaceful, the scenery is out of this world! The castle looks exactly like the images and was breathtaking, only thing I would mention is that you have to self cater everything yourself which we weren’t overly aware of when we arrived. For example, there was only 1 toilet roll, 1 bin bag, no coffee/tea etc so you need to supply everything yourself just so you can prepare. Well worth a stay here! Loved it!

The Castel has so much Potential. I will recomend to paint Rooms in white, and kitchen is ok but it could re Design better. It was very clean. Great. Toskana is fastastic.

Lovely stay with amazing views! Absolutely gorgeous! ❤️ Would recommend travel during moderate weather, if weather sensitive. No A/C and rooms can get quite hot with warm weather. Or take advantage of gorgeous pool to cool off!

Historic castle in Tuscany in beautiful surroundings. The atmosphere makes you feel traveling back in time.

Excellent place to stay if you want to go offline for a few days. Great food and service at the restaurant and really nice staff.

Absolutely stunning place to stay. It’s even better than in the pictures on here. The staff was amazing and the food at the restaurant was so good and very well priced. Only thing I would say is if you are staying here in the heat of summer, keep in mind there is no air conditioning and in 100 degree weather, fans don’t do much.

We really enjoyed our stay at the castle. The restaurant was lovely and the food and service were amazing. Reception was super helpful during our stay. We enjoyed the pool and the surrounds of the castle.

Montegufoni is a wonderful place to stay for short or long holidays. The staff are friendly and welcoming, the food in the restaurant is excellent. We had a great holiday.

Jaw dropping, beautiful surroundings. The restaurant wait staff were the nicest in Italy and the food was amazing. Our room was fantastic. The most unique place we have ever stayed.

Beautiful location, amazing place to stay. The host couldn’t do enough for us. The food in the restaurant is delicious, great value for money

Gemütliche Unterkunft in wundervoller Umgebung.

Prachtig kasteel met een ruime kamer en heerlijk zwembad! Daarnaast een heerlijk restaurant in het zelfde kasteel, zeker proberen waard.

A magical setting, we felt like we were in a Disney movie! Every angle you looked was a feast for the eyes, Tuscany at its best. The castle restaurant was terrific and good value.

The castle was rustic and nice. The amenities are basic, you will need to get your own food, including toilet paper. I really liked the views and it was peaceful, scenic location, you will definitely need to rent a car, no public transport upto the location. I loved the surroundings to walk and explore, its a beautiful stay if you overlook the shortcomings. It was a great deal on Air BnB. The staff was very sweet. There is no service except the check in and the restaurant only for evening/ dinner. During the day and at the pool you need to manage on your own for everything. Overall i loved the place and it was a good deal. I enjoyed driving around Tuscany from this castle.

Montegufoni is the most amazing holiday destination and I would thoroughly recomend visiting ! The castle is spectacular and steeped in history, the restaurant serves the best Italian cuisine and all this just a stones throw from the delights of beautiful Florence.

Truly a beautiful experience. The Castle was a peaceful and beautiful place, the rooms were clean and comfortable and the larger castle was so lovely to explore. The onsite restaurant was really convenient and served terrific Tuscan food. This is a gem of a holiday destination and I can't wait to return!

We had such a memorable experience staying at Montegufoni. The castle and surroundings were beautiful. The best part of our stay was the restaurant. The food was always delicious and the staff was the best. Montegufoni is centrally located to many beautiful surrounding towns, so it is easy to drive for a days excursion.

We readily enjoyed our time here. Great apartment and facilities. Recommend

What an amazing property with outstanding service! We truly enjoyed our stay at Montegufoni 29. We specifically selected this property because of the private balcony with expansive views and were not disappointed. We had no intentions of cooking (hello, we're in Italy!) but the refrigerator was great for storing wine and snacks. It was wonderful to have the space of a full kitchen with table, larger shower, and very large bedroom with plenty of hanging space for clothes. The bedroom was the only room with an air conditioning unit, which is fully disclosed, and worked perfectly for us and was worth the extra charge. Close the bedroom door and you are sleeping comfortably! Thought to consider when planning (but not to discourage this visit): You need to bring everything you may need; paper towels, soap, shampoo...You are allotted one bath towel per person for the stay or can pay for more. If I went back, which I would in a heartbeat, I would also buy a citronella candle for the patio. (We're literally in a forest, of course there will be little buggies, just a deterrent to be more comfortable) I should mention again what wonderful service we had during our stay; check in, an issue, and check out were handled wonderfully and we are so grateful.

Beautiful old castle! We enjoyed 4 lovely days there! If I could suggest having a machine for snacks/drinks as there is nothing available for breakfast or lunch and if you don’t have a car, town is a good walk down the hill then back up with groceries.
The dinner restaurant is wonderful!

We had a wonderful week! The castle is delightful and the views are breathtaking. Our apartment was clean and well equipped with comfortable beds and lovely linen. Can recommend the restaurant food and the staff are so friendly and helpful! The food is delicious and very reasonably priced. Valentina at reception does a fantastic job such a lovely, helpful person! All the staff here were outstanding. There was a wedding the weekend we arrived - it was great to see all the excited guests arriving and to watch this all unfold in such a special setting. They had the best time and the music was loud though not too late! Later in the week we had the pool to ourselves on several occasions which was totally unexpected!
Hire a car as there is plenty to explore around the area. Great vineyard tours excellent restaurants and hilltop towns. Florence is in easy reach and only 45 mins from Pisa. Our apartment had a lot of steps but not all do. There is a great little coop in the next town (10 mins drive) and a market there once a week. We had the best time and would go back like a flash!!

We had an absolut amazing stay in the Castello Montegufoni! It was even more beautiful than on the pictures, an impressive old Castel but renovated and very clean. The staff was also super friendly and helpful! We will definitely come back! :)

I stayed with some friends here for a couple of nights and it was totally worth the drive out from Florence! I would highly recommend getting a car because a taxi can be impossible to get, and we were able to drive to all of the close by wineries for tastings!!

Spacious rooms. Beautiful property. It’s an ancient castle on a hill so pack light because big luggage and stairs don’t mix well. Food at the restaurant was much better than we anticipated.

Beautiful surroundings, peaceful and tranquil gardens. I would recommend hiring a car as the castle is quite remote. Fortunately we had been to a local supermarket and stocked up before arriving as the rooms are quite sparse, very limited toilettries and cleaning products. The castle itself is spectacular and the views are worthy of a stay in themselves. We found our room for a family of 5 to be quite small and dark. At every opportunity we were out on the terraces as we felt quite claustrophobic in the room. A word of advice would be take lots of mosquito spray with you and plug ins for the rooms! Between us we were covered head to toe in bites and could hear them buzzing around in our rooms in the night. We were travelling with our toddler and did not realise there was an additional charge of €50 for a cot to be put in the room for 2 nights. This is stated on the website which I missed; however I did feel it was quite steep considering the length of our stay.

Hermoso castillo. A nuestra llegada, de noche. Nos recibieron las luciérnagas y un ambiente místico del lugar. Franchesco muy amable nos recibió pasada la hora de check in y hasta me ayudó con las maletas. El restaurante sirve una comida deliciosa!!

La villa était incroyable, grande et très adaptée à notre week-end entre amis. La décoration est rustique mais tout à fait dans le style du château.
Seuls inconvénients :
- le débit d'eau dans les douches est vraiment faible. Nous ne pouvions pas utiliser simultanément les douches sinon, avions un filet d'eau inexploitable pour se laver les cheveux par exemple.
- les moustiques !!!! De vrais tueurs dans les chambres du haut ! Ils se sont régalés !

En dehors de ça nous avons passé un incroyable moment ! Les professionnels (réceptionnistes, employés du restaurant etc.) étaient extrêmement serviables !

Le domaine est d'une incroyable beauté !

We had a wonderful time at Castello Di Montegufoni. A beautiful location with incredible views. The rooms are very traditional Italian, very rustic. Loved it. Ours was called Torre 2. Spacious room with a big balcony with stunning views. Bathroom was modern and clean. Every staff member we encountered we're truly lovely. They couldn't be more attentive. I wanted to give a shout out to Francesco in the restaurant. Very knowledgeable, attentive and warm person. Talked us through each wine and knew everything on the menu. Even gave us recommendations of places to go and things to do. Definitely considering coming back here again next year. Hopefully we don't get bad weather this time! Thank you.

The castle was amazing! the staff was very friendly! It was easy to get around to the places we wanted to go.

our stay at Castille di Montegufoni was restful. the grocery store that is in the nearby town is very well stocked and everyone in the town was super friendly. the staff at the Castille were so hospitable. Gabriel the grounds keeper and late night front desk person SAVED our first night there. from our 2 weeks traveling through Italy he was one of probably the 3 nicest people we met in out whole trip. the front desk ladies were also so kind! they helped arrange a pasta cooking class for my children while my husband and i had a private wine tasting. the front desk person also helped coordinate a driver that basically became our personal driver the entire time we were in Florence.

We rented one of the apartments outside the castle. Unfortunately, there were multiple mosquitos inside the apratment, despite never opening any windows, and everyone was covered in bites after 2 days. Additionally, although the apartment sleeps 8, there is no comfortable seating for that number of people, other than at the dining table. There is a small seat and 2-person 'loveseat' around the fireplace, but they are far from comfortable. The grounds in the castle 'proper' were beautiful, the pool was very pleasant, and the restaurant food and service were great. The location is convenient for exploring western Tuscany and Florence. I would recommend staying in the castle 'proper' but perhaps not in the facilites outside the castle.

Site enchanteur. Vue magnifique. Terrasse incroyable. Malheureusement, nous n’avons pu profiter de la terrasse, à cause de la pluie un soir et il y avait un évènement prive le 2eme soir.

The castle grounds are gorgeous and the apartment was minimal but recently renovated and spacious with a lovely terrace. The staff and other guests were very friendly and a pleasure to interact with. A few downsides: No wifi in the apartments; poorly stocked kitchen with basic cooking tools and a mini fridge but no salt/oil/napkins/necessities, so you must bring your own even for a short stay; the pool is not heated which means it is too cold to swim even in late May; no breakfast or lunch available on the property. Overall, if you are looking for a quiet stay in a beautiful place and are prepared to bring everything you need with you, I highly recommend the castle.

What a magical experience! As we ate at their amazing restaurant (it was so surprisingly good), the table next to us was made up of Canadians who had stayed at the Castello 10 years ago. hopefully we won't have to wait that long to visit again. so quiet. so peaceful. it feels as though you have the whole place to yourself. we would drive to the outskirts of Florence and then take the tram to the centre (free parking by nenni torregali). we also visited the nearby Machiavelli villa where he wrote his famous work following his imprisonment and torture. note: bring a car and there's a hefty deposit.

The view is amazing. The experience of staying right next to the castle or in the castle is for sure worth it and should be on anyone’s bucket list. For me it felt like a fairytale. The food at the restaurant is absolutely amazing.

Beautiful place, beautiful views. The restaurant on the property was also excellent. Overall enjoyed our stay here!

This castle was beautiful!!! We loved it so much, the views are incredible!! The restaurant food was okay nothing crazy but the dessert and wine tasting was very good. The room was clean and beautiful. We did have difficulty with the hot water getting to work but luckily my dad could fix it! All in all a very good stay

A few recurrents problems with the hot water (to have a shower or to wash the dishes). The place (palace, garden, swimming pool) and the location are perfect ! Easy to join every city around (Firenze, San Giminiano...). Top

Great Place

Perfect place to stay to visit wineries, staff are amazing and the Castle is beautiful I would recommend hiring a car if you are staying here

Amazing stay, excellent staff, breathtaking settings

Beautiful views in a great location. Dinner was amazing at their restaurant. The grounds and gardens were exceptional.

Beautiful place, nice views and clean. Kitchen poorly equipped. Service excellent, fast and friendly.

Amazing place. Beautiful gardens and views. Very cozy and spacious.

It’s a lovely castle and absolutely beautiful location. The staff are so friendly and helpful. When they say you need a car, listen! We did not have a car and took the bus. We had to walk 15 mins all uphill. Read the website about what is and is not included. Would stay again!

Très bel endroit proche de Florence mais loin de son agitation. Idéal pour un séjour en Toscane. Une remarque : l'équipement de la cuisine était assez succinct.

This place seems like a hidden gem! What a great location. We loved our spacious room, and the castle was just beautiful. The gardens were also stunning and we enjoyed the idyllic setting of the pool. The restaurant was also amazing. Such delicious food and very reasonably priced. Staff were excellent, the region is beautiful. We would definitely visit again and recommend to family and friends!

Très bel emplacement

A circa 20/30 min d’auto da Firenze, 45 min da San Giminiano e Volterra e un’ora da Siena, quest’alloggio permette di godere delle bellezze Toscane nella più totale tranquillità, circondati dal paesaggio e dalla bellezza di questo castello. L’appartamento è molto ben arredato e confortevole.

Très beau château Equipe très sympathique et réactive Endroit paisible Je recommande cette location dans laquelle nous avons passé un excellent séjour avec ma femme et mes deux enfants

Wonderful place in a beautiful surrounding.

Beautiful surroundings and a castle with nice atmosphere. The staff were very helpful and the restaurant at the castle we can recommend!

Really enjoyed our stay here - thanks very much

Beautiful and unreal place!

Maravilhosa acomodação. Obrigada.

excelente lugar para disfrutar de la toscana. lejos de la locura de las ciudades no creo que sea recomendable si estás sin vehículo. Nosotros lo disfrutamos mucho!

Emplacement magnifique et très calme. Les maisons proposées sont magnifiques. Préférable d'avoir une voiture pour y accéder.

Loved our stay. Spacious rooms and the balcony was a huge bonus. Sad we didn't enjoy the grounds as much since it was cold but we'd stay again. You definitely need a car as it is very difficult to get around without one, or you can do public transport but it will take 2x as long to get anywhere. The most relaxing time!

Our family of 8 stayed in la Galleria. It was the most perfect and magical location imaginable. It will stay in our hearts and minds for a very long time.

Beautiful villa in a very nice location. The unit was very spacious and comfortably fit my family. The hosts were also flexible in accommodating a place that fit my entire family. Overall great stay and would definitely go again.

Ganz besondere Unterkunft mit grandioser Außenanlage und historischem Flair. Die Kritikpunkte in anderen Bewertungen... kleine Fenster etc. sind der historischen Baussubstanz geschuldet die wirklich authentisch belassen wurde, und das ist auch gut so. Der Check-In war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommen. Der Aufenthalt war ein ganz besonderes Erlebnis und wir haben uns für 4 Tage als toskanischer Landadel gefühlt ^^

excellent stay. totally recommend it! will come back.

Très bon accueil au château, situé à un emplacement idéal pour avoir une vue magnifique sur la campagne toscane. Personnel très arrangeant et agréable. Points négatifs : manque d'équipements dans le logement, propreté qui laisse à désirer et présence d'humidité.

Il fascino del castello inserito in una natura strepitosa, la gentilezza e la professionalità di tutte le persone che ci lavorano e ti fanno sentire accudito e protetto. Possibilità di visitare tanti bei paesi e fare piacevoli passeggiate. Firenze a pochi km. Non so cosa si possa volere di più. Tornerò senz'altro.

Wunderschönes Kloster - in wunderschöner Lage. Idealer Ausgangspunkt für Trips nach Florenz, Siena oder San Gimignano für diejenigen, die sonst die „Ruhe“ suchen. Jederzeit wieder! ????

This is an amazing place if you want to experience Tuscany at a special location with panoramic view. Everyone working at the place is very friendly and helpful and makes you feel welcome. If you're a frequent airbnb guest and used to stay in other peoples houses/apt, you should be aware that this place is more like a hotel in the sence that the kitchen isn't equiped with salt, pepper etc. However there is a supermarket close by that has everything you need. We were very happy with our stay and would recommend it to anyone traveling to Tuscany.

Posto incantevole e molto romantico! Ottimo ristorante all’interno della struttura. Appartamenti nuovi e dotati di ogni comfort. Ci ritornerò sicuramente

Everything was great

E' stato tutto molto piacevole, il castello è splendido e la vista dalla terrazza meravigliosa. La depandance gradevolissima.

Great place and location. Like in the pictures. Just a reminder that this is an appartement not a room in a hotel!

Très bien accueilli, le logement est très sympathique et le cadre du château aussi. Un super marché Coop est situé à 10min en voiture, pratique pour les courses et Florence est a 30 min seulement. Les hôtes sont aussi très agréable et a l'écoute peut importe la langue. Très bonne expérience passée

Could not recommend staying here enough! This was the best place we have stayed, and truly could have stayed here for weeks. A few days is not enough… the staff was great, and even gave us a private tour of the chapel upon our request. It is historical and peaceful. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in Tuscany. The restaurant is exceptional, has super quick service, and a very nice atmosphere. Don’t miss out on the chance to stay at this gorgeous castle.

absolutely gorgeous. we loved every minute. beautiful, spacious and lovely hosts. highly recommend!

Excellent. Would recommend.

I can’t recommend this place enough — we had such a wonderful time here. The grounds were absolutely beautiful, our room was very cozy, and the restaurant was phenomenal. Very friendly & helpful staff — provided a booklet of recommendations upon check-in. We loved the “apartment” approach to the entire villa — it felt less like a hotel and more like a magical home we were lucky enough to occupy for a few nights!

Great place to stay! It definitely is remote so you will need a driver or to rent a car if you are planning to leave to go into Florence. We loved the castle and it was beautiful. The bed was comfortable & the kitchen had what we needed!

Danke. Es war sehr schön bei euch!

Zamek jest przepięknym, klimatycznym obiektem na bajkowej mapie Toskanii. To idealne miejsce na wypoczynek zdala od tłumów, a oddalone jest od Pizy zaledwie o godzinę drogi ;) zdecydowanie polecam przyjechać tu samochodem. Będąc na miejscu warto udać się na spacer po pobliskich polach i wstąpić na degustację lokalnych win i produktów do przeuroczej Pani z Azzienda Agricola Ammirable (via Romita 39, Montagnana). Polecamy serdecznie ♡

Really enjoyed our stay: accommodated 8 comfortably, beautiful setting in historic property, delightful and helpful staff, good restaurant on property (dinner only), great pool, driving distance to a number of known sites. Other restaurants and grocery store a short driving distance. Things to consider: need a car if taking day trips, can hear most every movement inside (stairs, doors, common areas), dim lighting, couldn't get microwave to work. Overall, definitely worth the stay!

stunning. truly. so unique and special. my mother and myself stayed for 2 nights. would definitely rent a car next time but other than that, the place was beautiful and so magical

Beautiful and impressive place. Great location to visit Florence, Pisa and surrounding areas.

It was truly an amazing experience. Great staff and wonderful restaurant on site. We were based there for 3 nights while we toured Tuscany and Florence. I wish it could have been longer. The LA Gratta room was over the top.

Definitely a great place! A bit far but gorgeous! Great price. I would definitely recommend do a big shopping before as the nearby shop is incredibly expensive for essentials.

Un castello e sito bellissimi, i giardini e la piscina sono ben curati,al ristorante il cibo è molto buono, gli impiegati sono molto gentili e simpatici. Si parla l’inglese molto bene! Siamo arrivati tardi la sera, e si pagano 25 euro per il late check-in che non ci dava fastidio- ma visto che il castello è in buio sarebbe una bella idea accendere le luci (che ci sono) per facilitare l’accesso?! L’appartamento stesso è vecchio quel che si aspetta vicino ad un castello, sfortunatamente anche poco pulito. Il bagno è improvvisato- che anche quello non si aspetta altro visto che all’epoca non erano le esigenze di oggi- ma si potrebbe restituire un sedile del water che si era rotto non so quando …
Riassumendo dirò che sarebbe il posto giusto per un soggiorno per pochi giorni è con tempo splendido.

wonderful premises, lovely pool and grounds, several excellent places to eat within 30 minutes walk but as property recommend, a car is needed to explore further afield. Good restaurant and self-catering accommodation was very comfortable and clean. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Will revisit!

100% can recommend - the castle was incredible and everyone was very friendly and helpful. A really great stay!

My girlfriend and I chose this castle in Tuscany well because you’re staying in a castle!!! Our stay here was so great. They have a restaurant on site that is delicious. The best part about this place is how centrally located it is to Florence and the surrounding area. We were able to explore a ton of places. The area is beautiful and is covered with great food and wine! We can’t wait to come back. A true hidden gem of Tuscany.

We loved the castle! It felt so different to stay in such special place. The apartment was very confortable, excellent showers and amazing views. Tuscany sunlight is magical. Location was great and we would definitely come back again.

We will be back. Loved it! More than expected xxx

Nice place, good location and great food.

Stunning room in an amazing old castle up in Tuscany. We absolutely loved the rustic feel and the grandeur of the grounds. It's a real hassle to get to via bus, on every occasion the bus was late or just didn't come at all so I would highly recommend getting a rental car in Florence and driving down. The only criticism is how the kitchen is poorly equipped for home living; there were no cleaning products or utensils (even a cloth or sponge) and you had to buy everything yourself, even things like salt and oil which, if you're only staying a couple of nights, is irritating to buy. Aside from that though, the place is absolutely fantastic and the staff are very friendly. My wife and I went as the final leg of our honeymoon and we thoroughly enjoyed it and hope to be returning at some point in the future.

Amazing! The views are spectacular. You'll really feel like you are in an old medieval castle. While we were there, there weren't many guests. I am not sure why, as it was the peak time for travel, but either way, it was probably for the best because the isolation may be experienced all the better. The views are spectacular. You really can't get any better than this. There are plenty of areas around the property to sit and have a glass of wine. The pool was very clean. The room was clean and organized, and everything felt very private and authentic. It's a quality experience, to be sure. However, we did have to throw away our own trash as per the rules of the state. They will not be pampering you in this place (no room service or anything like that), and you can't even buy a bottle of wine on the premises after the restaurant closes. While on that note, I have to say the restaurant was absolutely stunning; however, it was not the best. Actually far from it. I frankly disliked it quite a bit. This does not take away from the five stars I will give this experience. However, I wish that the food at the restaurant was better. The staff was Wonderfull, but the food was heavily lacking. My recommendation would be to have a couple of cocktails at the restaurant during sunset and then have someone drive you down to the town where you can go to another restaurant. Overall, I would highly recommend staying at this place.

Loved being in the castello! We had a wonderful week surrounded by the most spectacular views in every direction. Our only problem was the biting flies & mosquitoes.

The stay was amazing, place is unique and charming. Reception staff was friendly and helpful. Restaurant on site is pretty good and with amazing view. Florence is near, you can easily go by bus. Bus stop is less than 10 minutes away. It is a perfect location to stay and travel around Tuscany region. I hope we will come back again soon

Amazing experience!!!

Beautiful location for people who like nature, excellent food, history and a quiet ambience. A car or vespa to get there and to explore the region is highly recommended. As there are many steps, it is not an ideal location for people with walking disabilities.

The area was great, the views spectacular. We came without a car and unless you are able to cycle or rent a scooter it is difficult to travel around. Can get a taxi but nearest taxis come from far so will cost a bit. We walked to nearest village to get supplies, but did end up eating almost every night at the restaurant, which was fantastic food. You need to supply the trip yourself but lots of help from the staff.

The castle is incredible. Story book views in a 1,200 year old castle. You simply can’t beat it. Having the restaurant on location was perfect for a night or two when you don’t feel like venturing out or had 1 too many bottles of wine. A rental car is a must for the area but completely worth it. There’s are numerous places to visit for food and wine and Florence is only a half hour drive for a day trip. 10 out of 10 would recommend.

This was a real fantastic place to spend a couple weeks.

Great location, real Tuscan experience :)

There is much to say here, but I will start with this: Read the fine print. We were not aware until we arrived that this facility did not provide the bare essentials. We had purchased quite a bit of food for our 4 days here, yet it wasn’t until we checked in that we found out they don’t provide any types of dish soap, napkins, paper towels, or even more than one small roll of TP. Their attitude is that you should treat it like camping and pack in the supplies you will need. The check in counter was only open from 9am to 5 pm, so if you need something outside of those times, it will need to wait until the next day. I will say that the staff was very friendly and accommodated our requests for extra fans (because there was no A/C and it was very HOT) and extra pillows. Also, you will need insect repellent and anti-itch cream, because the mosquitoes here are relentless and plentiful. On a positive note, the landscape is breathtaking, and we met some nice guests at the pool. The castle (if you’re lucky enough to get a room in that part of it) was very interesting and spooky, with lots of places to explore. We stayed in the “villas” which were detached and a few hundred yards from the main facility, with far less charm and intrigue. Overall, I would recommend it, as long as you temper your expectations and know going in that it is a 1000 year old castle, and you will live similarly to those folks.

The property, staff and restaurant were all wonderful. We would love to stay here again. Simply gorgeous!

Alles sehr sauber und geschmackvoll. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Das Ambiente ist unschlagbar.
Die Küche war allerdings sehr dürftig ausgestattet, ein Küchenmesser im Gepäck ist hilfreich

Einfach herrlich ! Tolles Schloss in ruhiger Lage ! Haben uns sehr gut gefühlt !!

Castello Di Montegufoni was a beautiful place to stay for three nights! We're totally into the Middle Ages so it was the perfect spot for us.

Location adatta per vivere e provare la capitale del Chianti per un soggiorno rilassante all’insegna del buon vino. Host ospitali e disponibilissimi a consigliarti i posti giusti da visitare.

Beautiful place to stay. Gorgeous views; amazing grounds to explore & lovely pool. All staff very attentive & the restaurant was very good. The Castle was beautiful & rustic loved the whole experience & vibe of the Tuscany countryside.????

This is a truly special place. A perfect location for exploring Tuscany and still having a relaxing holiday.

Montegufoni was a dream. The photos on the Airbnb do not do it justice. It's like getting to sleep in a museum. The staff is friendly and accommodating and I thought the restaurant had great food. My favorite part about this stay was to just sip wine and enjoy the silence and serenity of the venue and it's surreal views. 10/10 would stay again.

would 100% recommend! great views, service !

Very friendly personnel, very helpful with all questions. The property was beautiful and well kept. Our stay was the perfect size, the only thing we missed was more storage room in the bathrooms and more comfortable chairs at the pool. But this can be overlooked. Nice central location of the castle and the restaurant was very nice. We dined at the restaurant one evening but when we came to the dessert more than half of them were no longer available so we didn’t eat one.
Overall a very pleasant stay, can recommend!

Wow what a romantic place to stay and visit. Our accommodation was 2 mins walk from the stunning palace / castle, with beautiful gardens and a wonderful pool. Worth booking the palace restaurant for dinner, the setting on the terrace is like nothing else and the food and service is top class. I would definitely recommend and will hopefully return.

Magical is an understatement! The most romantic place to stay with beautiful views everywhere you look. Felt like a dream. The only downside is that there’s no ac so it was a little hot at night in the room. (We stayed here in August so understandably hot.) But overall amazing!

I stayed with my family at one of the houses. Two bedrooms and two baths. We went in the summer and the AC in the rooms works great. No AC at the living room. All liens and towels provided. Parking is free. You must have a car to stay there. Pool was great to cool off at the end of the day. The only thing to improve are the utensils. They offer the very basic. Things lake a toaster and cutting board are simple improvement opportunities. Internet is OK, not great. We had no issues during our stay.

nous avons passé un très bon séjour dans ce superbe domaine, la piscine est très agréable, et l'appartement confortable. si vous souhaitez cuisiner par contre, sachez que l'appartement ne dispose pas de suffisamment d'équipement.

We stayed there for a week and and were quite fascinated: The castle is set in a wondeful landscape. The pool is nice, the restauarnt was great.
Check - in and chek-out were without problems. The appartment was nice.
You definetly need a car - but then Florence, Siena and Pisa are within easy reach.

We loved our stay & will come back again next summer. A gorgeous castle setting & great for groups or couples. Beautiful setting and pool area. The houses are simple and plenty of room to have luggage. Fans inside & no air conditioning however we slept fine with the fans. Recommend bringing drinks and snacks to stock the fridge as it’s a little drive to an open supermarket & shops have funny opening times in summer. Some shops weren’t open so we kept driving. Restaurant is super cute & you can also just order drinks and find a nice spot on one of the many balcony areas to sit with a drink.

Simply bellissimo and great Italian food at the restaurant.

In general a nice stay at a resort that deserves the average rating of three stars as the average quality matches the reasonable price paid. The unusual high temperatures challenged both the resort and our stay and is obviously not to blame on the resort.The restaurant on the castle is amazing. Really good local Tuscan food at reasonable prices and a very frindly staff.
We took a drive to Vada at the coast to have a day on the beach which was also a nice breakaway.

Beautiful location in Tuscany and short drive to Florence. Unfortunately due to the heat wave at the time of our visit it was challenging.

Very beautiful place with a lot of space in the apartments. Also a beautiful environment.

Wonderful stay in beautiful surroundings. Only thing missing was that it would be nice to be able to have a bit more servive svailable during the day, such as the ability to buy coffee, etc.

We loved our stay at castle Montegufoni. The castle and garden are really worth the visit!

Our apartment, "La Grotta” was unbelievable! It was like being on a movie set. Everything about this property is breathtakingly gorgeous and picturesque. We used it as a homebase and went into Florence for day trips and then visited wineries in the local area. Lots of great restaurants and small quaint towns to visit nearby. This is not a full-service hotel so it is important to know that before you go and there is no breakfast on site so if you want coffee in the morning you need to be prepared to provide your own supplies. They have all of the cooking utensils that you need. There are many wonderful little gathering spots in and around the castle for enjoying aperitifs or your lunch or dinner alfresco. Best picture taking opportunities ever! Note, our apartment did not have air-conditioning but they provided many fans and that was fine. Little to no mosquitoes so we were able to leave all of our windows wide open without a problem.

We went with my little 3yo girl who played the princess for the whole stay. Indeed, it's a real castle and you feel like it! It was amazing. The host are great and speak very well english. The room was clean and comfy. The restaurant were very nice and the waiters so kind. Be carefull: There is the strict minimum stuff inside the room (WC paper, etc..) you should take some if you want to stay more than one night.

unique and magical place, with a lot of history, breathtaking views and a great restaurant. One of the mot beautiful places I have ever stayed.

The drive to Florence is short and easy. I found it to be very relaxing after traveling all day exploring the wineries and the City. The pool was nice and the property was amazing to explore.

The castle is beautiful. You will have a great experience. Everything about the Castello was great except for the transportation. This is disappointing from an American point of view. I saw families walking down the narrow winding roads to get to a bus stop. It would be more convenient if the castle would at least provide a shuttle. We had to rent a car which was also not easy as you have to go to the city of Florence which is 40 minutes away and most rentals are only available at the airport. If the transportation was more accessible this would be better for business for the castle and the surrounding towns. If you are planning on staying at the castle please allow for car rental expenses in your budget unless you plan to stay at the castle the entire time then you will only have to spend between $70 - $100 dollars for a taxi depending on the driver. This is the only downside but I would visit and stay at the castle again.

We were so pleased with our stay. Unmatchable views, service, and area! Will forever dream about this castle!!

Very cool opportunity to stay in a historically significant castle in Tuscany. the architecture and grounds are lovely and interesting. We found the pool to be a wonderful place to cool off on a hot afternoon. The rooms were pleasant, albeit without air-conditioning. Fans were provided and this was actually not a big issue. If you are planning a prolonged stay, I would recommend brining along extra personal supplies such as toilet paper, soap and shampoo as these are only provided in a limited quantity. if you plan on cooking, also bring along dish soap as this is not provided, although the kitchen is otherwise well stocked with dishes, pots and pans etc.

What a magical venue! Our family had the most amazing two weeks staying here, and plan on returning in the future. The location is perfect, polite and helpful staff, amazing food, and definitely a hidden gem within the Tuscan Hills. Would definitely recommend this venue to anyone who is planning to travel around Central Italy. :)

Pretty quiet location in very beautiful Tuscan surroundings; ideal for day trips to towns and countryside; very exciting for children exploring the area; clean swimming pool to relax after day trips; restaurant with a beautiful terrace; unfortunately no breakfast

Great location, beautiful and tranquil scenery. You need a car to access. Friendly and helpful staff and the apartments are full of charm and character. If nobody is at reception due to limited hours, very easy to contact via airbnb or leaving a note at reception as we did. They provide fans in hot weather, but don’t expect air con as this is an old castle. Be aware you need to buy own basics such as toilet roll(only 1 provided per bathroom), liquid soap, salt n pepper. Plenty of towels. All in all would stay again.

This location was really beautiful for our two families with together 4 kids. The staff is really friendly and polite. The restaurant located in the castle is really worth a visit!

As always for such rented homes - if you really plan to cook - take at least some good knifes, a good pan and maybe a water boiler with you - the rest is available.

4.5 stars. There is room for some general improvements - suggested ongoing clean up and refreshing of grounds. We were in the tower top floor and was not advised there were fans available - having them in the room upon arrival would have been perfect.

We had a wonderful stay at Castello di Montegufoni! The stuff is super friendly & lovely. The Castello is just magnificent!! Perfect get away!

Traumhaft schönes Schloss in der Toskana. Eine solche Aussicht kennt man sonst nur aus Filmen. Die Kommunikation, check in und out sind zuvorkommend und einfach. Das dazugehörige Restaurant ist lecker und hat eine tolle Atmosphäre. leider öffnet die Bar erst ab 18 Uhr und es gibt auf dem Schloss keine Möglichkeit Getränke zu kaufen.

We really enjoyed our stay. The landscape is beautiful and so is the Castle. The Restaurant was delicious and we also enjoyed the pool.
We had an Apartment which did not really belong to the Castle but it was very nearby. It could have been a Bit cleaner (Couch in the Kitchen) and some Things were a Bit neglected. It would have been nice to have a mosquito net in front of every window without any holes in it.
And the matresses in the bed were way too soft. So the nights were not that comfortable (but this happened to us in other parts of Italy, too)

had a wonderful stay here as a solo traveller, the grounds and pool were just stunning, as was the castello! Nothing was too much trouble and everyone was so friendly. The restaurant was delicious, I ate there most nights and would highly recommend. It’s the most wonderful place to switch off and relax.

Wir hatten eine schöne Zeit in der Unterkunft. Die Räumlichkeiten sind Geschmackssache. Wir mochten die besondere Atmosphäre aber auf andere mag das auch bedrückend wirken. Die Wohnung ist sehr großzügig geschnitten und einfach eingerichtet. Wir hatten uns mehr von der Küche versprochen, in der nur das Nötigste vorhanden war und welche aus unserer Sicht nicht zum Kochen einlud. Die Gartenanlage mit Pool ist sehr schön und man hat einen tollen Blick über die Toskana. Für uns war die Übernachtung im Castello etwas ganz besonderes!

It was a amazing stay in this gorgeous castle in the Tuscany countryside, with a view on hills and vineyards !! The appartment itself (n18) was wonderful, with stone and wood all over the place. Absolutely recommended!!

Very cute place, as described and a unique way to experience Tuscany. We enjoyed the premises, the pool, the view, dinner at the domestic restaurant and vicinity to Firenze. Latest there you will have to face masses of tourists so this castle is a great calm hub to explore the region from. Two nearby villages offer shops, bakery, pharmacy for the basics. To have a car sure is recommendable. We thoroughly enjoyed and recommend this accommodation.

Beautiful villa set in the Tuscan countryside! Restaurant is pretty good. Great for a quiet get away.

Amazing place! Beautiful Castello, You need a vehicle although a direct bus is coming from Florence. Restaurant has local organic food. Definitely to recommend :)

Extérieur incroyable, piscine très sympa. Idéal pour faire de belles photos. Bonne situation près d’une ville avec restaurants, supermarché, pharmacie. On est vite à Florence. Places pour se garer. Logement spacieux , il manque juste un micro ondes, car plaque de cuisson gaz, ce n’est pas simple à utiliser quand on a pas l’habitude. Personnel à l’écoute

We had a super time in Montegufoni - Villa Osbert with our extended family for a superb wedding weekend. The wall to wall sunshine and swimming pool were a real bonus.
The castle was magical by day and by night. The history of the castle is fascinating. We were very well looked after by staff the worked quietly in the background. Fabulous views at every turn.
The only downside was in our villa itself. Any negatives we have are all about the kitchen in our villa. A welcome pack of water, milk, tea/coffee to get us started would have been much appreciated. Also some washing up liquid or 2 dishwasher tablets would have made the stay more enjoyable. The sockets in the kitchen don't work. The microwave and toaster had to be moved to the floor in the main room. A dish cloth and more than one tea towel would be great please. The toaster in our villa needs to be replaced. Some light bulbs are also needed.
On the whole we did have a fantastic time and have been busy singing your praises to anyone who wants to listen.
Grazie mille

Beautiful location & unique experience to stay in this castle. Only complaint was that the bar opend at six o'clock.

A beautiful place to stay. Incredible views and impressive building. You will need a car to make sure you can make the most of being in the beautiful Tuscan countryside!

Very nice place to stay, beautiful castle and surroundings. Appartment is clean and was very spacious.

We loved staying at this property. The setting is absolutely stunning, sitting on the castle patio overlooking the rolling Tuscan hills, sipping on a glass of wine cannot be beat. The staff is lovely. The apt is not the Ritz or the Four Seasons, but it is servicable. If you need anything, just ask at the office, they were always very helpful.

Don’t miss this gem. Such a place filled with ancient history and the area is well isolated so no noise. The apartment was old of course but very serviceable and all the three bathroom were modernized. Bed was excellent. The food is delicious regardless of some comments I had read from previous guests. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. Hope to return soon. I have no negative comments what so ever except may be poor lighting in the kitchen / living area. But we didn’t do any cooking as we were on a Tuscany vacation.

Great location and a good restaurant with very helpful and friendly staff

perfecto

Die Ferienwohnung war sehr gepflegt und sauber. Die ganze Anlage ist sehr gepflegt und schön. Es gibt auch ein sehr gutes Restaurant. Mit dem Auto erreicht man in einer halben Stunde einen Park and Ride - Parkplatz nach Florenz. Ein sehr empfehlenswertes Domizil.

We loved our stay! The castle is ca 30 min with car to florence, and is situated in beautiful hills in the Tuscany countryside. The castle has as lot of history and the gardens are extremely beautiful! BUT you have to understand that it is a very old building and not a modern comfortable luxury resort. The castle is a charming, special and very beautiful accommodation but it gets very cold at night and the rooms are rather dark and have old bathrooms,floors etc. This was no problem for us because we really enjoyed staying in a place with this much history and character. I read a lot of negative reviews criticizing this, so I just wanted to point it out for future guests, so that they are prepared, even tho for us this was no problem at all.

Very good accommodation, in an idyllic location in Tuscany!

A beautiful location right around the corner for Firenze! Good equipped apartments, really comfortable to stay in and explore the beautiful Tuscany. Unique location too :)

The rooms are clean. Wi-Fi did not work in the room. The restaurant in the castle was also closed. But we were given a list of restaurants in the area. You also need to pay for heating, 8 euros per day. You will learn this by the fact of eviction. In general, it is a very beautiful and interesting place.

Cosy historie place in pittoresqe surroundings. Higly recommendable.

La residenza storica è molto affascinante situata nei colli a circa mezz’ora da Firenze in una bellissima cornice di vigneti, uliveti e verde a perdita d’occhio. Il contesto si potrebbe valorizzare molto di più. La camera accogliente arredata in maniera molto sobria ma non mancava niente peccato il bagno molto molto piccolo senza finestra. Nel complesso per una breve permanenza in famiglia siamo stati bene.

Gentilezza, disponibilità, location stupenda. Il nostro appartamento era dotato di uno splendido camino e di un lavandino in pietra . I bellissimi pavimenti in cotto toscano d’epoca, l’arredamento in stile shabby, ogni particolare curato per rendere calda e confortevole l’atmosfera. La loggia privata, a cui si accedeva da una scala interna alla camera da letto, con vista sul cortile interno era davvero suggestiva. Il bagno moderno, funzionale. L’unica pecca, se dovessi trovare un difetto, è l’eccesso di calcare lasciato sul soffione della doccia. Abbiamo anche cenato al “Ristorantino”, cibo buono decisamente. Un posto incantevole.

Très bel endroit, calme, hormis le bruit des gens lors du passage dans la cour. 20 minutes de voiture de Florence et 1h de Pise.

Une très belle surprise, le château est magnifique avec un parc entretenu permettant une jolie balade plongée dans l’histoire…
Nous avons pu rencontrer et échanger avec le propriétaire dont la passion pour le lieu et son histoire est évidente : un moment de partage qui fut un vrai cadeau !
Nous avons séjourné dans la maison de 4 chambres à quelques pas du château et qui est bien agréable. Elle dispose notamment d’une cheminée que nous avons pu allumer (le bois était fourni) pour le plaisir de tous.
A présent, nous avons hâte de revenir et de découvrir les appartements du château…
La Toscane est un petit bijou d’histoire, de paysages, d’accueil et de gourmandise… dont il est difficile de se lasser !

We had a fabulous time at this castle. Note that it is remote, does not have amenities that you might expect at a hotel or air bnb. We found it VERY useful to have our own car, which I rented from Sicily by Car a the Florence airport for about $185euro for 4 days, including the upgraded insurance for Europe. COOP grocery is the closest normal grocery but there is also a small grocery down the hill in Baccaiano, about a 10 minute walk (no liquor). And there is a cute winery up the hill the other direction for take-out (no tastings currently due to covid). There are several fun and not expensive restaurants in every direction throughout the various towns. The castle does have wifi but it's a little spotty so I also used data when on site at times, and definitely for traveling about (Waze is the best phone app for driving around, even in Europe). Staff was friendly and helpful, but you really never saw them, nor needed them for anything. You're pretty much on your own. I would recommend also for larger groups....but again, plan your transportation situation bc taxis are prohibitively expensive. Best way to get into Florence BY FAR is by bus from Baccaiano right down the hill....again just a 10 minute walk. Bus schedules available in lobby area at castle. Sundays, the schedules are highly limited, so pay attention.

Excellent

I just spent 6 days at Castle Montegufoni and it was a fabulous 5-star experience! You have to know It is not a hotel ( no room service) - it is truly a real castle, although has totally updated bathrooms.
ps. bring mosquito apartments, so you can also prepare your own things. (why? You're in Italy!!) I stayed in #22, a perfect apt for 2 that overlooks the main courtyard - I loved it. But you can also ask for an apt that overlooks the incredible landscape. There are also apts that aren't in the castle, but on the castle grounds- ask for what you want in size and location, there are choices!

The staff is friendly and helpful and can't do enough for you. They are also helpful in giving suggestions on places to go and see.
The food is clean, fresh from the area and both the food and wine was amazing.

My favorite part is the luscious landscapes you see from anywhere you look.
Walks / runs are something you will experience no where else. You can drive to the small towns and enjoy true Italian living with the locals.

There are interesting and fun vineyards to experience the locals wines, truffles, olive oil, and saffron.

Walk around the castle, the grounds are enormous, and check out all the unusual parts to the castle.

The reception staff isn't there all night, but you have a key to come and go.
Check the hours for the restaurant ( amazing!) , so you can plan when to eat there on the beautiful dining courtyard vs going out and exploring in the nearby nearby towns.

ps. bring mosquito lotion. I'm always chewed up - and I didn't get a single bite with mosquito lotion.

ENJOY- you will LOVE IT!

We had a wonderful 4 night stay for a wedding! The castle staff was friendly and helpful. The grounds are beautiful and the views are fabulous!!. Everything was clean and neat. We loved overlooking the courtyard in our suite. The food was wonderful and was the right temperature even for the number of people we had dining. We were there in early October and it gets chilly in the evenings and overnight, but they don't turn the heat on until a little later. They had good blankets to keep us warm.

We stayed at Castello Montegufoni as part of our honeymoon. The location is nice, in the middle of the Tuscan countryside and the staff are really helpful and speak great English. The restaurant is amazing and as vegans, catered for us really well and we had a lovely evening meal which they set up for us away from everyone else. However a few things really let down this part of the trip for us as honeymooners. We found the room to be a lot darker than the images. There was one tiny window in the corner so you constantly needed the lights on. Felt like we were staying in a larder really, so didn't give us the romantic vibes we wanted at all. The place was fully booked so we couldn't move rooms, although the staff were understanding about it. As self-catering accommodation, take note there's no oven which limited some cooking options, no simple condements like salt, pepper, olive oil. Which would have been useful as you end up having to buy far too much in the shops for the sake of a few days, just to throw out at the end. The most important thing of note is there are LOADS of mosquitoes. We left Tuscany with at least 30+ bites on us and it really disrupted our sleep every night. We did notice a screen over the window but not one small enough to keep tiny mosquitoes out and it was left open when we arrived! I would heavily suggest the Poserelli Villas to invest in mosquito nets over the beds as it's not really something you'd think about coming to the Tuscan countryside for the first time. I'm sure if there had been another room available for us and we were prepared for the mosquitoes it may have been closer to what we were hoping. But on this occasion, the experience could have been better.

Wunderschöne Lage naheliegend zu Florenz sehr idyllisch Super freundliches Personal im hoteleigenen Restaurant

Schöne Lage, traumhaftes Schloss. Leider nicht genug gepflegt und die Wohnungen sehr abgewohnt. Leider auch viele Familien, von Ruhe am Pool keine Spur. Top Restaurant und nette Bedienung. Für zwei Tage mit leichtem Gepäck zu empfehlen

Sehr schöne Location mit gutem Restaurant und ausgezeichnetem Ambiente.
Sehr aufmerksamer und freundlicher Service.

Ottimo soggiorno in un contesto suggestivo e con un ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo

Sehr schönes altes Schloss, schöner Pool, großer Garten, der allerdings etwas gepflegter sein dürfte. Die Wohnung war sehr groß, allerdings dunkel und stickig und nur mäßig sauber. Sehr gutes Restaurant und sehr freundliches, hilfsbereites Personal.

Amazing place, amazing people working there, fantastic nature .. lots of unforgettable moments !!

Castello, piscina,giardini e vista meravigliosa. Ottima accoglienza da parte del personale e del ristorante interno. Posizione eccezionale, unico neo è l’appartamento un po’ troppo datato.

Charmant et typique, un séjour magnifique au cœur de la toscane.

Séjour (15j) dans appartement spacieux du château, traversant cour/jardin. Manque la climatisation (plus de 30°C) le soir à l'intérieur, manque les moustiquaires, cafetière, vaisselle sommaire dans kitchenette basique. Pourrait améliorer service de renseignement des choses à voir dans la région. Restaurant: service très bien, qualité de la nourriture médiocre.

My family and I definitely enjoyed our stay at the Posarelli Villa. The staff was so friendly and helpful, and the location was wonderful.

Le cadre est de toute beauté. Il est agréable de voir que la piscine n'est pas surchargée et que l'on peut s'y reposer. Nous avons regretté l'absence de moustiquaires aux fenêtres et, dans ce lieu, les moustiques vous font vivre un enfer. Nous avions l'un des 3 appartements où les espaces extérieurs (table + fauteuils) sont quasiment côte à côte donc pas d'intimité (nous ne l'avons donc pas utilisé). Les autres appartements bénéficiaient d'un agencement mieux adapté pour profiter de l'extérieur.

The place was amazing and the apartment too. Maybe a bit more or furniture for the kitchen and airfan would be perfect.
Thank you for this stay

The location was absolutely beautiful and the people were so so friendly and kind! ❤️
