CASTELLO DEL NERO

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.

“INDIA AT ITS MOST INCREDIBLE”
Unbelievably brilliant from start to finish. The Ultimate Travel Company gave us complete flexibility while tailoring the trip to our personal preferences. Communication was excellent throughout, and the in-country team in India was super-efficient at every stage. The quality of the experience was exceptional – and the value for money, remarkable. From expert naturalists to thrilling wildlife encounters (tigers, leopards, 140 species of birds), awe-inspiring temples, the Taj Mahal, scenic walks and warm, welcoming people – not to mention the fantastic curry – it was a truly superb holiday. “Ultimate” really is “The Ultimate Travel Company”!

“TAILORED TO PERFECTION”
Our holiday in Thailand was superb – custom-built exactly to our preferences. The Ultimate Travel Company were super attentive, listening carefully to what we wanted and designing an itinerary and hotel selection that really delivered. Even while we were away, they responded quickly to a query. A brilliant experience from start to finish.

“PROFESSIONAL, PERSONAL – AND A REAL PLEASURE”
From the moment we got in touch, everything felt smooth and well looked after. The team were not only professional and thorough – providing tailored suggestions with clear costings – but also genuinely friendly. Even after we returned, a follow-up email (and a bottle of wine!) showed just how thoughtful Ultimate Travel really is. Nothing was too much trouble. We already have more trips booked and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.
