Castiglione del Bosco

Castiglion des  Bosco

Montalcino, Tuscany

Castiglion del Bosco is one of the most beautiful and amazing country hotel resorts one could hope to visit.  Located in the Montalcino district of Tuscany just 30 minutes south of Siena, this 800 year old 4,500 acre Tuscan estate was purchased in 2004 by Massimo Ferragamo.  Ferragamo spared no expense in restoring and building an incredible resort... luxurious facilities with only 22 suites and 9 villas, in a setting that is nothing short of stunning.

Excellent cdb website with lots of history and pics.

Dell' Orcio Suite 

Where to start with one of the most luxurious suites we've stayed at this side of Trisara. Even the jaded Mrs. SFO remarked "this is amazing". Absolutely gorgeous... spacious (I'm guessing 1,500 SF), beautiful finishings, furniture, colors, decor, patio, and Fox News!

Ferragamo Tuscan Soul toiletries, but of course...

Private Tuscan Dinner with Castiglion del Bosco's head Chef Enrico

Every Tuesday, CdB offers 8 guests the opportunity to experience a special dinner prepared by Chef Enrico. We jumped at the chance for this experience. What a treat. Enrico has a great pedigree having previous worked at Joel Robichon in Paris. He is personable and very engaging. And the food was simply divine.
