I can’t say enough good things about this property! It was a beautiful place with stunning views. We were amazed by the architecture and beauty of this castle and the rich history it holds. Margherita was an amazing hostess. She made sure we were comfortable and had everything that we needed. My family and I will visit again.

Castle Volognano is paradise and Margherita is a saint. We stayed here for 3 days to have our wedding held here, and everything and everyone was beautiful. I can't think of anywhere else in the world that would have been better.Their services, their wine, their Olive oil was incredible. I cannot rave about this place enough.They managed to make our special day extra extra special.

Castle of Volognano Was Wonderful

We loved the castle. The grounds are stunning. The kitchen is well-supplied. We asked them to arrange a cooking class and dinner, that was so much fun. It's a beautiful base to use for day trips, and it's also fun to hang out there.

Amazing!

Such an amazing experience at Castello di Volognano! The castle was perfect for four couples with plenty of space to relax. The location is very convenient with a nearby town providing everything you need and the views of the rolling hills of Tuscany were stunning. The pool was also great and the service by the hosts made our stay even more memorable. Can’t wait to come back!

Our very own castello

Had a wonderful stay at this well-equipped home away from home. It was cool to stay in a castle! Iacopo took great care of us - helping us with things we needed before we even go there. The place is close to many good restaurants and we drove to Chianti and Siena for a quick visit. The pool was a bonus especially sine we were there in August. I can imagine how wonderful this would be as a wedding or anniversary venue.

Tuscany Castle

Fantastic experience! Iacopa took great care of us and made sure we had everything we needed. Wonderful setting and a great experience. Sitting outside either at the pool or at the tables was our favorite way to relax. We enjoyed their locally produced wine as well. Highly recommend.

Fantastic Stay in Tuscany!

We had an absolutely amazing time at the castle! We were a group of ten staying a week for my wife's 40th birthday and everything was wonderful. The pictures really don't show you how huge the shared spaces are, there was plenty of room for people to spread out and enjoy themselves, but also great places to be cozy together. We had both the cooking class and the private chef for one night and highly recommend both. I also suggest taking the winery tour and wine tasting option, it's great!

Best Place to Stay In Tuscany

The description does not do it justice. The We plan to go back. Iacopo is a gem. He was so responsive. He helped prepare our meal as part of our cooking class, and he gave a great tour of the winery. Be sure to get up and visit the church at 8:00 a.m. on Sunday. It is worth it.

Amazing Week in Tuscany

This place is beyond words and the people that run it are even better. They really care about your happiness. The chef that can come in and cook to the daily housekeeping services are beyond amazing. And you cannot forget Jacapo (not correct spelling) he is everything you can ask for in a property manager. His wine tour was nothing short of amazing and the history given was special. I would rebook this place in an instant. Thank you for everything!!!!

The stay at Volognano Castle was an incredible experience for our family. This 11th century castle in the Tuscan hills is beautifully restored and was comfortable for our large group. Patrizia and Margherita were very communicative and informative from the planning stage to our departure making sure every detail was handled. We arrived in the evening and Erika picked us up at the Pontassieve Train Station for a quick ride to the castle. There is an adorable bar/bakery right by the train station that had yummy coffee, treats and drinks. The owners, Patrizia and Alberto welcomed us at our arrival and Margherita gave us info about the accommodations and answered any questions. We scheduled a wine tasting and a light meal when we arrived (early evening). It was INCREDIBLE. Constanza gave us a tour of the grounds and shared her passion for the region, the wines and olive oil produced on property as well as her extensive knowledge of Italian wines. We learned so much about the wines and each was paired with delicious food. We then were served a delicious meal prepared by Silvana. It was one of the most special moments of our trip to Italy. This property is absolutely stunning. The views are jaw dropping, the grounds are immaculate and the hospitality unmatched. We had a breakfast and dinner prepared and all was delicious. Some things to note: Lots of stairs; no A/C but nights were comfortable with windows and breeze; it's rural, so maybe rent a car.

Wonderful stay at a wonderful castle!

Over the course of a week, my American and Italian family (14 people in total!) met at Castle Volognano. It is truly a magical place. The owners and staff were lovely - thank you Alberto, Patrizia, Claudia and Jacopo! It is also worth mentioning that the daily cleaning service is very helpful and we highly suggest getting the refrigerator stocked for your arrival as well as doing one buffet dinner. The grounds and views are stunning and there is even a family of turtles living in the gardens. Yes, turtles! What's not to love? We also recommend taking a tour of the winery. Jacopo was outstanding and hilarious. We hope to return someday.

AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL!

This is a place you learn to love. From the very beginning we begin to notice all the special things about it. Our first dinner was under the trees. The view of the rolling vineyards and olive trees made you want to cry. At 7:00 we heard our church bells and it gave us chills! The pool and grounds were amazing and beautiful. The kitchen had everything needed for meals. There were linens, dishes, etc for all meals. The “welcome fridge” was wonderful! We cannot say enough about this place. Patricia and Edwardo were wonderful hosts. Will definitely return!

Absolutely Amazing!!!

I just returned from a 2 week trip to Italy, in which my group of 14 stayed in four different regions and vacation rentals. Of all the places we stayed, hands down our group liked our stay at Castello Volognano the best! The property is magnificent, the views are incredible, and the pool was so refreshing on the hot August days we spent there. Above all, Iacopo, the gentleman who manages the property, made us feel like royalty during our stay. No request was to big. He arranged everything with me prior to our stay: from transfers, to shopping lists, to dinners with a chef at the castle. Everything here went seamlessly. No one in my group of 14 wanted to leave! If you are visiting Tuscany or the Florence area, you must stay at Castello Volognano. During your stay, I highly recommend doing the wine tasting with lunch, and having at least a few means catered by a chef overlooking the beautiful Tuscan countryside. And I can't forget, the olive oil they make is amazing as well. Thank you Castello Volognano for making our first trip to Italy so memorable!

A Castle Life For Me

I traveled with a group of 10 close friends for a 2 week trek across Italy. The Castello di Volognano was the highlight of our trip and my only regret is that we didnt stay here longer. The castle is on the top of one of many rolling hills of Tuscany and the views could not be better. The owner, Patrizia, was patient and accommodating and was extremely helpful when booking our stay despite me being difficult and changing the dates multiple times. The property manager Iacopo was outstanding and unbelievably helpful. His wine tour was wonderful and had a more homey, friendly feel than other commercial wineries that we had toured before. He also helped arrange a private dinner cooked by a personal chef and it was delicious. A surprise bonus that I didnt see mentioned in the listing was a fleet of 20 turtles that happily live in the castle garden. The only thing missing was a castle cat (or three)! We would not hesitate to come back to Volognano. If you are looking for a once in a lifetime, perfect vacation in a castle, stop looking and book this now!

Would return in a hearbeat!

How would I summarize our experience at Castello di Volognano? 10 out of 10. The castle is more than a place to sleep during your travels. It is a destination in and of itself. For just five days, my family and I felt like Italian dignitaries. We received a royal greeting from Iacopo, the castle's concierge. Perfecting the art of being invisible yet always available, he graciously attended to our every need. We arrived and were greeted with a beautiful glass of Chianti as we listened to Iacopo give an interesting talk about the castle's wine and olive oil production. We enjoyed charcuterie, a tasting of the vineyards' wines, and a light dinner, which included the best lasagna I have ever tasted. Inside the castle, you are immersed in history, art, and architecture like no other. You can't help but feel that you've transported back in time but forward in social status. The backyard will be your gathering place for morning coffee and late-afternoon cocktails. Being on the top of the hill, your views of the Tuscan countryside are as magnificent as the sounds and scents wafting through the cooling breeze. Every single one of my family loved the castle. Ours was a busy trip. Our only regret was not booking one more night just to relax and enjoy our surroundings. We will return as soon as we can! It was a blissful experience, and I highly recommend it.

Great, spacious authentic castle

We were a group of 5 adult couples. Not all had private bathroom/shower (see their description). Still, this is a huge (!) place, with plenty of big living/dining/game rooms. The kitchen is small-ish but works. The building/castle is truly amazing, you will be impressed, and the grounds are beautiful. We were less impressed with housekeeping (just daily bed making, but no new linens all week, and fresh towels only upon request even if they were placed on the floor). Most of us weren't happy with the mattresses. A pre-stocked refridgerator for our late-pm arrival would have been nice (no such option) - that would be super helpful when arriving from long distance and have no idea where to buy what. Now, the castle is an authentic 1000 year-old building, and while all that is really special and impressive, don't expect window screens (big bugs find their way into the bedrooms), no modern plumbing, and showers and drains are so-so. So that's the trade-off. The location is amazing, quiet, hill-top with incredible Tuscan views - something you'll write home about! You feel like a king up there.There's a groundskeeper who's very helpful with where to go, what to see, etc. The nearest town is ~15 min by car, with a train-station (to get into Florence), a really big grocery store, plenty of small restaurents, etc. Really everything you need is there. Perhaps except for the bedrooms' non-biting bugs and the mattress quality, this is a spectacular place you'll not forget.

Everything was great! Wine tasting and dinner at the castle was amazing, it was the highlight of our stay there.Lots of stairs and no AC. If travelling in the summer, it’s very hot inside during the day. They do provide fans for the bedrooms and with the open windows, there is some relief during the night.Overall, it was a fantastic.
