"The Belmond’s views and countryside splendour allows guests to enjoy pampering at the extreme. Come for a long, leisurely stay in the sophisticated atmosphere and absorb the sublime cuisine and superlative pampering."

Your thoughts will undoubtedly turn to matrimony when you set foot in this Tuscan masterpiece, the Belmond Castello di Casole, for there could be few venues more romantic on earth. Even those who are already hitched will envision a second honeymoon here amongst the rolling hills and vast green spaces of verdant, luscious Tuscany in an ancient castle. Opened within the last decade or so and incorporating an estate dating back to the 1700s, the Castello di Casole is set in a breathtaking 4,200-acre area surrounded by vineyards (Brunello di Montalcino, no less) and tiny villages.

The property has 41 rooms and suites, most in the main building, with the Oliveto suites located five minutes away. Most guests opt to be in the main hotel, but the Oliveto Suites have small kitchens and large private balconies and are more modern in décor. The hotel also has 28 privately owned farmhouses which are available for rent – especially good for longer (or family) stays – and offer access to all...   Show more

The property has 41 rooms and suites, most in the main building, with the Oliveto suites located five minutes away.

The hotel also has 28 privately owned farmhouses which are available for rent – especially good for longer (or family) stays – and offer access to all facilities.

During the restoration, architects and local artisans were employed to use traditional methods, reclaiming materials including the wooden beams, ceramic tiles and terracotta pots found through the property. Sandy Burden, the dedicated interior decorator, used warm and earthy Tuscan colour schemes and local antiques to create gorgeous rooms and suites. Beds are super-comfy, and bathrooms have tubs and separate showers.

When it comes to dining, Restaurant Tosca is the property’s jewel in the crown. If you want to take it up a notch, go for the tasting menu, and ask the sommelier to recommend a vintage to go with each course. The delicious buffet breakfast is also served here, where farm-fresh eggs take centre stage. There’s also a super pizza and pasta restaurant, too, fun for the entire family.

Set in beautiful, formal gardens, guests are encouraged to make the most of the many activities on offer, from pizza and pasta making, to hiking, biking, riding, ceramics and truffle hunting (in season, of course). But if all that sounds too strenuous, the welcoming spa has some delicious, organic treatments on offer (and yoga classes), and the hotel pool is pretty special.

There are wonderful places to visit in the region, including Siena, Volterra and San Gimignano, a UNESCO world heritage site, but you would be forgiven for shunning all and exploring your immediate surroundings instead (on foot, Vespa or bicycle).
