Villa Castellare in Chiusdino, open June–November.
Villa Castellare stands apart in Tuscany for its genuine self-catering independence—you control every vendor, every menu, every detail without venue restrictions.
This 14-guest manor house in Chiusdino commands a 100-person capacity with thick medieval stone walls providing natural cooling and an intimate indoor pavilion for rain days.
Open April through October, it operates as a true blank canvas for couples wanting total creative control over their celebration.
A beautiful 12th-century castle. Restored with a wonderful atmosphere. Located in a fabulous, peaceful, and sunny location. The service is first-class and the pool is accessible. I wholeheartedly recommend it!
