01 · In a sentence

Relais Borgo Scopeto in Vagliagli, open AprilAugust.

Built in the 14th century as a fortified farmstead, Relais Borgo Scopeto stands as a fully restored Tuscan manor that preserves its medieval stone architecture while offering contemporary luxury.

The property underwent extensive restoration to maintain its historical integrity, transforming it into a five-star hotel venue that honors its origins as a working agricultural estate.

Located in the heart of Chianti's rolling countryside, this 600+ year-old structure now hosts intimate destination weddings within authentic Renaissance walls.

Amazing, unique location. Service to match. Excellent from start to finish. We were rained out of southern Italy, and made a spontaneous dash to Tuscany. Fortunately this hotel was the only one with a room available. Everything about it exceeded our expectations. The buildings, the food and bar service, the concierge assistance, and very helpful front desk - frankly blew us away with how wonderful everything was! Highly recommend!
