RURAL BEAUTY OF TUSCANY
Enveloped by the rich, rural beauty of Tuscany, this elegant historic estate is the perfect base from which to immerse yourself in the charms of the region.
Castillo del Nero enjoys a truly picturesque location nestled in amongst rolling hills, wheat fields, olive groves and vineyards. The property itself, and the extensive grounds, dates back to the 12th century when it housed Florentine noble families. Wonderfully restored and luxuriously appointed, the guestrooms maintain their traditional heritage with wood-beam ceilings and terracotta floors. The interiors are more up-to-date, boasting modern amenities like air conditioning and flat-screen TVs.
