The apartments are inside a medieval castle in the middle of Tuscany. Our private property is 153 hectares wide including 14 hectares of vineyards, olive tree area and woods where you can take a walk and relax in the Tuscan countryside. The castle developed from a watchtower built to protect the Sienese territory in the year 1000, then expanded around the year 1200. The apartments are all restored in medieval Tuscan style to give you an authentic experience going back in time. In the castle cellars we produce our best organic wines such as Chianti, Chardonnay and Merlot, which you can taste by visiting our cellar or comfortably by the pool in summer or in the castle courtyard itself.

The host is the Neri Del Nero family who have been opening their family castle for 35 years to give guests an authentic Tuscan experience in a unique location. If you are lucky, you will be able to meet the Baron himself who will tell you about the exploits of the castle's ancient knights and ladies and how the castle's history has evolved over time. Over the past 35 years we have hosted couples and families from all over the world who wanted to rediscover the ancient charm and experience living in a real castle.

Surrounded by verdant landscapes, the neighborhood offers ample opportunities for outdoor exploration and relaxation.
