What's nearby

  • Cascate del Diborrato - Parco fluviale dell'Elsa Inside the residential area of Colle Val d'Elsa is a historic and natural landscape of enormous value thanks to the Elsa River which crosses the Val d'Elsa creating a unique territory. The river creates enchanting corners for hiking and observing: the engineering works for gathering water, the artifical canal system for carrying the water to the city, the caves. A particularly suggestive point is the Diborrato water falls, a 15m jump which is more than 10m deep, a sort of small lake where the locals used to go to cool off. Other places not to miss are the Grotta dell'Orso, the Conchina, the Masso Bianco, the Nicchia and the Spianata dei Falchi, each with its own particularities. This natural richness has been recognized with the institution of a protected area in the River Park of the Upper Val d'Elsa which includes the path of the river from the city of Colle Val d'Elsa which stretches from Ponte Santa Giulia to Ponte di Spugna and includes the Caldane, thermal springs which were known to the Etruscans and Romans.

  • #TroveOn Yes, Monteriggioni just might be the quintessential walled medieval village in Tuscany. It's small enough to perhaps be called "cute" but you won't catch me using this term. Monteriggioni began as a border fortress built on a round hill by Sienna against the Florentines. It is famous for the intact defensive structure that held up against repeated Florentine attacks in the 11th century; its 10 meter high walls and 14 towers can still be seen for miles around. Monteriggioni has been featured in movies as a typical medieval village. The village is slightly elliptical in shape with two gates (a third has been plugged). The major gate tourists will use when coming from the parking lot, Porta Franca, owes its name to the Via Francigena--Monteriggione was a major stop on the pilgrimage trail from Cantebury to Rome. The Romanesque Church of Santa Maria Assunta will offer assistance with housing for modern pilgrims traveling the Francigena pilgrimage route. Monteriggioni was a sleepy village of farmers and sheep herders as late as the 1960's. Today it exists entirely for tourists and pilgrims. You'll find wine shops, a tasting room, restaurants and hotels in the small village. This is not neccessarily a disadvantage, although some times it's nice to see some locals puttering about once in a while. Where is Monteriggioni? Monteriggioni is located in the province of Siena, 14km to the northwest of Siena (54km from Florence). While it can be done as a day trip from Siena, you might be better off staying the night--Monteriggioni is much more evocative when the tourists leave late in the afternoon and you can sit in a courtyard sipping a glass of Chianti. Monteriggioni is surrounded by vineyards, and is known for its wine production.

This is a working winery with rooms and is an actual castle! Short ride to Montereggione, Castel Pietraio is a quiet respite from the rest of thrr we chaos of traveling in Italy. An evening wine tasting and charcuterie let us converse with travelers from all over the world. Comfortable, generous rooms, and a well-maintained pool. Spend 2-3 nights if you can!

I cannot say enough good things about this property! It is a family-owned and operated property with an amazing vineyard, olive trees for olive oil, and lots of space to roam and explore. The family that runs the property are so incredibly kind and accommodating! Catarina was phenomenal with her recommendations on places to go and see, along with her favorite restaurants. She also was just a genuinely good person and fun to talk to! We did the wine tour here and loved being able to taste our first Tuscan wines, and even took home some olive oil! Parking was so convenient, the room was lovely and charming with all of the amenities that you need (including automatic shutter closure for blackout "curtains"!). We are so thankful that we stayed here and got to know this amazing family in the area!

Place itself amazing! Castel from 15 century looks stunning and gives you opportunity to be part of the history. If you like old authentic furniture and history- this place for you. If you are looking for service and other modern hotels features, look somewhere else.( WiFi you can have). Otherwise, beautiful views from the windows and great location in the heart of Toskany.

Hidden Gem!!!

We were looking for an overnight stay in the Tuscany area and luckily found Castel Pietraio. It is a family owned castle and winery. We were charmed by Francesca and her father Mauro Neri Del Nero. We had a wonderful stay. The room was very clean and the bed very comfortable. The breakfast was prepared by a lovely Italian woman and was delicious. Though are stay was short we managed to squeeze in a trip to Siena (a must see) and Monteriggioni Castel (Assassin's Creed). We also bought 2 cases of their award winning wines (the Merlot won 3rd in all of italy) and a bottle of their olive oil. We look forward to sharing the wine with friends and family and the time we spent with these two exceptional people. Cheers!!
