Castel Monastero Style: Classic Luxury 5 Star Hotels Loc Monastero D Ombrone 19 Colonna Del Grillo Siena Italy

One of the most beautiful stretches of countryside in Italy lies among Chianti vines, corn fields, chestnut forests and long rows of cypress trees: this is the Tuscany of the Ombrone Valley – a land blessed with masterpieces of painting and food and the greatest, unparalleled art of knowing how to live life. Castel Monastero, a fantastic Country House Resort, stands in this unique corner of the world, just 23 km from Siena. A small but intact medieval village called Monastero dell’Ombrone survives from the 11th century and is recorded in the archives of the era.

Today, within these thousand-year-old walls, 76 guestrooms and suites and a villa of pure elegance radiates. You can sense the glorious past of this village in the air, among the 4 hectares of unspoilt greenery and at a hair’s breadth away in the luxury of the most exquisite Italian hospitality. In keeping with the fascination of the hotel, there is a gourmet restaurant, a cellar where guests can sample the best Tuscan wines and a SPA where guests can relax and feel at peace.

This is a wonderfully enticing corner for a holiday in which to discover Italian culture, for a romantic honeymoon or for a wedding in the intimate little church within the walls of the resort.
