In the Florentine Hills of Tuscany lies Castello di Oliveto, an ancient 15th century castle boasting a prime position in the midst of a farm of picturesque vineyards and olive groves on which it resides. This Castelfiorentino accommodation offers convenient serviced apartments and amenities, a serene and magnificent location, and royal hospitality. Near the property is the fortified castle Via Francigena for which the town was named, the Church of Saint Verdiana, and many hiking and biking trails. Just a 30 kilometer drive, and you will be in Florence to admire the art galleries and famous architecture. Castello di Oliveto was built in 1492 and possesses a wealth of history which can be investigated by guests. Although the property has been renovated and modernized since guests such as Pope Clement VII, Pope Paul III, and the King of Italy Vittorio Emanuele III stayed here, the original details and luxurious ambiance remain. Take a guided tour of the castle’s ancient wine cellar to learn about the wine and olive oil production, then cap it off with a wine tasting complemented by traditional Tuscany dishes. For some recreation, take a leisure swim in the pool amidst a royal atmosphere, and play a game of tennis on the court located at about 3km/1.86 miles from the accommodation. In the common areas is available a barbecue and awashing machine. In the afternoons, unwind in the lovely gardens for some peaceful moments and while you enjoy the picturesque views of the area. For a truly memorable time in this romantic setting, wedding packages, and cooking classes are offered here.
