A proposito di questa castello/palazzo struttura in affitto
The castle of Montalto in Tuscany is a medieval hamlet with over 1000 years of history, surrounded by woods and farmland in the lovely and unspoiled Chianti hills near Siena.
Ten carefully restored villas and apartments, including a wing of the inner castle, are offered directly by the owner as self-catering accommodations sharing the swimming pool.
With its private chapel and banquet room, the castle is a spectacular venue for weddings and events.
Montalto in Toscana - Torre del Vescovo is a two-story wing of the main castle building, including the original watchtower, and provides a complete medieval castle experience. The remainder of the manor house is occupied by the owners.
The living room has a high beamed ceiling and is adorned with frescoes; it has a dining area, a very large fireplace, an old piano and a television.
There is a separate full kitchen with espresso machine, dishwasher and clothes washer.
Upstairs are found a master bedroom with antique furniture and frescoed walls, with a queen size bed and a large en-suite bathroom with wall shower over the bathtub. There are two more double bedrooms (one with two single beds, one with queen size bed that can be separated into twins) and a bathroom with shower over tub. There is a third bathroom downstairs with a stall shower.
From a landing on the stairs there is access to a balcony that overlooks the valley and leads to a small study within the tower itself, with a single bed. A door in one of the upstairs bedrooms gives exclusive access to ladders to the top of the tower.
From the living room a short flight of stone steps leads to an enclosed private garden, with a stone table and a wisteria-covered gazebo.
Torre del Vescovo is accessed via the upper courtyard, a gravel terrace under a majestic linden tree, which is shared with the tower suite San Martino (1-2 people) — the two can be rented together to provide complete privacy and sleep 8/9 people in all.

We loved our very private three bedroom + three bath, two story apartment in this historic castle. It is spacious, beautifully furnished. And it has its own tower. The patio with arbor and view was a great place to dine. Staying here was a highlight of our trip. A good base from which to make day trips (Siena, Florence, Montepulciano). We were made to feel welcome.

I cannot express how much we thoroughly enjoyed our holiday at Castle di Montalto .
It is truly a magical place. To celebrate my wife’s birthday and our tenthly wedding anniversary we couldn’t have picked a better place. We traveled with our daughter (6) and two of our closes friends. We stayed in the Two Towers which combines Torre del Vescovo with San Martino. Both places were nicely appointed with everything we needed. It was amazing having a private court yard and a terrace with a million dollar view.
My daughter and I started our days at Montalto on one of the beautiful hikes through the country side. She truly found the place magical, she dubbed the monks room as the princess room, and entertained herself on the fantasy of being a Princess, which I guess she was. It was great fun seeing the wonder and amazement of a six year old exploring a real Castle. During the day we would explore Siena or one of the interesting villages around Chianti. One of the days we toured with Tuscany Scooter Rentals, what a great perspective seeing Chianti on a Vespa. Most evenings started by enjoying wine on the terrace while enjoying a beautiful sunset. Then it was off to one the great local restaurant recommended by our gracious concierge Melanie , a true friend for life, her in-depth knowledge of the area is amazing . She was “spot on” on all of her recommendations. You have to try L'Orciaia a small family restaurant with world class food and it’s just a few minute drive from Montalto. After dinner most nights we concluded our evening enjoying a fire in the main salon while recounting the day’s activates.
We thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon we spent with Giovanna and Diana, the owners of Montalto, they opened their private residence to all the guest and shared their story and the history of the Castle. Montalto is a true historical treasure, we will be back.
beautiful Chianti region of Tuscany

We rented out the entire castle for a week to serve as a wedding location/vacation post for 41 of our closest family and friends.
For the castle, everyone had an amazing time. It is centrally located in tuscany and our group enjoyed being able to do quick day trips to surrounding cities and towns. At the castle, we enjoyed hiking around the area, bike riding, playing tennis and swimming in the pool. We loved having our own private rooms if folks wanted to retreat and also loved the big open spaces for group dinners, etc. All of our friends and family say that the week at the castle was the best vacation they have ever been on, and we quite agree!!
We had our wedding ceremony in the main courtyard, with appetizers under the Linden tree and dinner in the main hall. The venue was absolutely perfect and Diana and Alessandro were so very helpful in the planning process. Our wedding was magical and to be quite honest, there is nothing that I would change about it (food, flowers, etc. were all perfect!!). It was great having everything in one location and even better that no one had to drive after the drinking and dancing late night.
Overall, I cannot say enough positive things about the Castello and I really do hope to visit again. Our group loved it so much that we are hoping to try to organize a reunion here in a few years, it was magical and amazing and exceeded all of my expectations.
