Italy: Castello di Casole, Tuscany
A 10th-Century Castle Across 4,200 Acres of Tuscan Countryside
Castello di Casole spans 4,200 acres of rolling hills, vineyards, and small villages around a 10th-century castle in the Tuscan countryside. The 39 rooms and suites are spread mostly through the main building, with the Oliveto suites set five minutes away in another wing of the historic castle, each finished with wooden beams, stone floors, and metalwork that trace directly back to the property's medieval roots. Two Signature Villas, Thesan and Usil, add extra space and privacy, overlooking the hills and the historic San Tommaso chapel.
Dining stays rooted in Tuscan tradition across two restaurants, including Emporio, where guests can pick up estate-made olive oil and wine or settle in for a wood-fired pizza made with mozzarella from the property's own dairy. Essere Spa, set inside the former wine cellar, handles the slower moments, and a large, valley-facing pool and sprawling gardens make the estate a genuine summer favorite for families.
