Tuscany,
Italy
Castello di Montegufoni, a 12th-century castle set in the Tuscan hills, offers the perfect home for your Tuscan adventure. Set in the midst of a large and very charming terraced park overlooking beautiful Italian gardens, it still retains a certain medieval flavor which blends smoothly with Renaissance refinement and solidity. In addition to the 15 spacious and comfortable accommodations, the Castle offers a swimming pool, and restaurant specializing in sumptuous local Chianti fare. Golf, horseback riding, hiking, biking, and spa facilities can all be found within easy reach.
In addition to the 15 Castle apartments, Castello di Montegufoni offers Dependance apartments located only footsteps from the Castle. Offering access to the full range of facilities such as the pool, restaurant, and on-site activities, these modernized apartments have a large living room with a dining area and a kitchen corner. Dependance apartments have 2 - 4 bedrooms, one or more bathrooms, a freezer, and many have an outdoor area with gazebo furnished with table and chairs. Some apartments include air-conditioning, a dishwasher, a microwave, and a fireplace. Depending on Castle apartment availability, you may be accommodated in a Dependance apartment rather than a Castle apartment.
