Castles in Tuscany

"Picture yourself in a century-old castle high on a hill in the heart of Tuscany. Your surroundings are those of a majestic Monet painting. Birds humming, and the smell of fresh croissants fills the air. A cup of hot cappucino is being brought to you by the most professional but always smiling and always friendly staff .No you're not dreaming, you and your family of 30 are guests at Villa Leonina, Every room has an ensuite bathroom with daily maintenance and fresh towels. The kitchen and...

"It’s not often that 19 members of an American family have the occasion to be treated like royalty in a magnificent Tuscan castle! The physical venue, including the antique furniture to the billiard table to the large classic dining room table and carved chairs, is matched by the views of cypress trees, olive groves, vineyards and stone towers dating to the 1300s. The views of the hills and villages around us were unparalleled. The comfort level was modern and superb. The people involved in...

"We enjoyed this quirky (lots of steps) but delightful rental. All the bedrooms with ensuite baths ensured privacy for everyone. The small kitchen was very well outfitted and we enjoyed cooking dinners there with wonderful indoor and outdoor eating options. The pool was refreshing with lovely views. The managers were attentive to our every need and very friendly and accessible. I would definitely come again!"

"The villa had an excellent layout for families traveling together with amazing views of the countryside and mountains, and was within walking distance to a lovely family-owned osteria and short drive to local food stores. The large pool was fantastic. Our host Barbara was lovely, answered all our questions promptly and made check-in and check-out very easy. The only negative was that the advertised hot tub was completely non-functional during the week of our stay, but Barbara did her best to...

"We had a wonderful stay and all the family were sad to leave. The apartment is charming, clean and very well equipped. The housekeeper, Antonella, is very helpful and came to our aid when needed. The town is family friendly with some great restaurants and shops. We will miss going out for late night gelato and making friends with the many local cats."

"This location was magical! "

"Le lieu est exceptionnel et l’accueil très chaleureux. Un grand merci à Manola pour ses précieux conseils et accueil "

"This was our third time staying in this castle apartment. It’s a lovely little piece of heaven. We love everything about it. The views are simply spectacular! We love the kitchen and prepared several meals while there. The location is great and the town is so very cute. There are great restaurants all around and it’s an easy drive to lots of other little towns, restaurants, and shops and wineries. We like going to the market day in the Piazza and to the Coop for little bits of groceries. ...

"Nicola was a welcoming and efficient host responding quickly to enquiries and needs. The castle is a great Tuscan experience in a beautiful location throwing you back in time. We rented the entire property that offered needed air conditioning needed during a very hot spell and a perfectly refreshing pool. Nicola arranged beautiful dinners on the terrace overlooking the Tuscan hills as we sampled wine made from Sangiovese grapes from the property. The location is less than 30-60 minutes from...

"We had a very happy week here. The view over the sea is stunning and the apartment was spacious and comfortable for 7 people across 3 generations. Populonia is tiny and although very atmospheric, you do need to drive for about half an hour to get anywhere else (shops, beach etc). However, this is clearly indicated in the description so no complaints. G check-out, she is lovely and a"
