This historic castle hotel for sale is located in the Chianti Hills of Tuscany, just 25 kilometres from Florence. Dating back to the Middle Ages, the property has been carefully restored and operates today as a 71-room hotel with capacity for up to 142 guests.
The main castle building covers approximately 6,740 square metres and includes 44 guest rooms, 25 bathrooms, two restaurants, a reception area, large communal spaces, and a private chapel decorated by the artist Cosimo Ulivelli. One restaurant can accommodate up to 150 guests for events, while the smaller dining area serves up to 75 people in summer with outdoor seating.

The estate spans 10.1 hectares of land, including an olive grove, arable land, a lake for irrigation, and landscaped gardens with a lemon grove. There are two swimming pools for guests: one near the castle measuring 13 x 6 metres and another 12 x 6 metres pool within the garden areas.
The property is easily accessible, just 5 km from a town with essential services. Florence Airport is a 25-minute drive away, with Pisa, Bologna, and Rome airports also within reach.

The castle’s architecture reflects its long history, with medieval structures complemented by later Renaissance and 20th-century additions.
