CastelloBanfi Il Borgo, Luxury Retreat in Montalcino Italy
Growing up as a devoted history lover, I have always daydreamed about living in a castle. I used to recreate that magical word in my phantasy, populated with vassals and fortune tellers, with dames and cavaliers.

This summer, my stay at the beautiful Tuscan resort CastelloBanfi Il Borgo in Montalcino, Italy gave me the chance to turn this dream into reality.

This beautiful property is set in an ancient stone hamlet that was built in the 1700 sunder the protective walls of the 13th Century Castle “Castelloalle Mura”. What was once used as a dwelling for farmers who toiled with their noble landowners has today been restyled into the luxurious rooms and suites of this jewel of Tuscan hospitality.

While the architectural style remained unchanged and very authentic, the interior was renovated with modern comforts, premium fabrics and exclusive accessories.

dream of living in a castle
We were so lucky to stay in one of their exclusive 14 rooms, surrounded by history, vineyards and olive groves.

CastelloBanfiilBorgo is truly a place of peace and serenity.Enjoying breakfast or “aperitivo” at sunset from the infinity pool that over looks immense stretches of Brunello vines is simply good for the soul.

"This villa is quiet, clean, rustic, and perfect. My spouse and I loved the remote location and the working vineyard. We were given all the information we needed during our stay. When we return to Italy, we will try to stay at this villa again."

"My family and I had a delightful stay at "Art and Garden" in Monte Antico. The peaceful, remote countryside setting was perfect for a relaxing getaway, and the clear night skies allowed us to see the Milky Way—a truly magical experience. We stayed in a charming old building on the property, 50 meters from the beautifully preserved main church. The infinity pool was clean and provided stunning views, and the entire property was well-maintained and comfortable. The owner was particularly helpful, assisting us in finding a pediatrician when our son fell ill. However, there were a few minor drawbacks. The no-jumping rule at the pool was a bit restrictive for our young children, and the additional sofa bed in our apartment was uncomfortable for adults, though the main bed was great. We also noticed some noise from our upstairs neighbors, which disturbed our sleep on a couple of occasions. Overall, "Art and Garden" is a serene and beautiful retreat, ideal for families looking to enjoy the tranquility of the Tuscan countryside. "
