About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Real Tuscany great for families and friends.

Borgo Castelrotto is one of three residences at Tenuta Castelnuovo Tancredi, a 600-hectare private organic estate that has belonged to the same family since 1897. Together with Villa Aiale and the Castle, it forms part of a working farm in Val d'Arbia, between Siena, Montalcino and the Val d'Orcia.

The house is rented exclusively to one group at a time, accommodating up to 18 adults (plus 2) across 9 double bedrooms and 8 bathrooms.
The main building holds 7 bedrooms upstairs, with a large living room, dining room and a big kitchen on the ground floor connected by external stairs, shared by the whole group.
A separate dependance, the fienile, has 2 further bedrooms — one on the ground floor — with its own dedicated kitchen, guaranteeing complete privacy for that part of the group.
The swimming pool at the center of the property is reserved solely for the guests renting Borgo Castelrotto, with views over the estate's own olive groves and vineyards toward the valley below.

No roads or traffic reach Borgo Castelrotto: it sits inside the estate itself, surrounded by the woodland, pasture and cultivated land that the family has farmed organically for generations.

The same land produces the estate's wines — Ammiraglio, Ambasciatore, Fiamma and Assedio — along with D.O.P. extra virgin olive oil and grain, all of which guests can taste during a cellar visit or an evening aperitivo.

A private cooking class with our chefs is also available, focused on the traditional recipes and local ingredients of this part of Tuscany.

On request, we organize breakfast, wine tasting in the estate's cellar, cooking classes, in-villa dining, excursions, and a pre-arrival grocery service.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, which features a fireplace and a private pool. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. A Smart television and a DVD player are provided for your entertainment, while complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected. Conveniences include a desk and a microwave, and housekeeping is provided on a limited basis.
Enjoy a range of recreational amenities, including cooking classes, an outdoor pool, and a fitness center. This vacation home also features concierge services and barbecue grills.
Breakfast is available for a fee.
Guests will find features like internet access, onsite parking, and a car charging station.

A stunning house, beautifully restored, incredibly peaceful along with a lovely swimming pool. Our family from 4 to 80 years old loved it. Violante was a great host and super helpful at all times.

Enchanted

Staying in this sprawling villa and grounds is like stepping back in time. Many aspects are old, but charming. The grounds and views are bucolic. The hostesses is pleasant and responsive.
