Castel Monastero

    Castel Monastero is a slice of heaven hidden within the ancient stone walls of a former monastery now transformed into a luxurious countryside escape. It’s a quintessential Tuscan retreat made up of historic architecture, world-class dining, and a setting so picturesque it feels painted by a Renaissance master. Beyond its breathtaking rural locale, guests can savour cuisine crafted under the guidance of Michelin-starred chefs or unwind in a wellness spa that transcends traditional pampering with unique treatments. Whether you’re strolling through the vineyards or floating in a saltwater bath, each experience here is mindfully enriching.
