A castle to live
In the heart of Chianti
One of the most beautiful stretches of Italy, in the Tuscan countryside, among Chianti Wines, corn fields, chestnut forests and long rows of Cypress trees this is the setting around Castel Monastero, a beautifully restored medieval village and monastery, just 23 km from Siena.
Within these thousand years walls is a true Tuscan retreat which exudes a feeling of simple refinement and pure elegance with its contemporary rustic chic style of the 74 rooms and suites and one villa.
Immerse yourself in wellness
If you’re looking for inner harmony, just close your eyes and inhale the warmth of the nature all around you.
In the woods, the countryside and the wonderful garden around Castel Monastero and its spa, you can try some intensely energising yoga sessions, led by internationally renowned qualified instructors.
One night as a King
You are in the heart of Chiantishire. Look out of the window.
Stretching out before your eyes are vineyards, woods and fields straight from a Medieval fresco, and a splendid square, with its café, restaurant and even a little church.
