Montestigliano in Brenna, open June–November.
Built in the 14th century as a fortified farmhouse, Montestigliano stands as a meticulously restored Tuscan estate that has hosted celebrations for over 600 years.
The property retains its original stone architecture while offering modern amenities across its 12 hectares of vineyards, olive groves, and manicured gardens.
Today it operates as a luxury hotel and wedding destination, preserving its medieval character while providing contemporary hospitality.
Stayed for a week at the end of June and loved almost everything about it! The most gorgeous views, lovely accommodations, staff was wonderful. The only downsides were the heat with no air conditioning and minimal fans, and I would have loved if they had more food options on site. Otherwise it was a wonderful time
