Imagine a Tuscany wedding in your own private medieval citadel with spectacular castle! This Castle with Hamlet is an enchanted world of its own. Located over the rolling hills of Tuscany that border the Chianti region, the Castle is a fortified village dating back to the 1200's, only 10 minutes from Arezzo.
Enclosed within the ancient city walls are guest rooms and self-catering apartments, a restaurant, bar, panoramic swimming pool and beautiful gardens and park.
Surrounding the castle are spectacular landscapes and the rolling hills of Monte San Savino. The castle is removed from fast paced tourism and offers the opportunity of experiencing an authentic Tuscan life as well as the delicacies of traditional Tuscan cuisine and wines.
For your wedding in Tuscany, this castle is ideal! With its own ancient Romanic church, or elegant medieval wedding hall nearby for civil ceremonies, it is possible to offer your guests a very exclusive wedding event.
Your Tuscany wedding reception can begin with aperitifs in the lemon gardens with their breathtaking panoramic views of the Val di Chiana valley. The Restaurant is the crown jewel of the Castle and is located just outside the Gargonza city walls, near the swimming pool, where one can enjoy the views of Gargonza's woods and Val di Chiana. The setting is truly stunning: the internal dining hall accommodates 50/65 persons, while the outdoor terrace accommodates up to 185 guests and boasts magnificent views.
ROOMS and APARTMENTS
With the option to choose from a bed and breakfast or vacation apartments, a stay at the castle is characterized by tranquility, nature, art, history, and even shopping (within the antique markets of Arezzo and Cortona and the nearby brand-name Prada outlet stores). Siena is only 35 km away.
The rooms of the Castle are located over various buildings within the village. There are 13 buildings which maintain their authentic structure and original atmosphere thanks to a careful restoration process. The comforts are modern while the atmosphere retains the feel of a long ago. There are three types of accommodations; comfort, classic, and superior, housing from one to four guests in utmost comfort.
The apartments reflect the trademark of an elegant Tuscan country life and were lovingly restored by the owner - offering every possible comfort and amenity. Each apartment is named after its original inhabitant - the house of the seamstress Niccolina, the gamekeeper's house, Celso etc.... The smaller apartments accommodate 1 or 2 guests, while the large house located on the outskirts of the property can accommodate up to 10 guests.
