Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco: escape into the beauty of Tuscany

Long for leaving, desire of light-heartedness  and uncontaminated nature. Wishes that can be fulfilled on an estate of 2000 hectares a few kilometers from Montalcino, in the heart of the Val d’Orcia, in Tuscany. I'm talking about Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco, the luxury resort that reopens on June 2, 2021, choosing a symbolic date, June 2, the Italian Republic Day. For the occasion, Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco has launched special holiday programs, conceived as ‘Toccata & Fuga’ (short breaks) from which to squeeze the best: good food, dream wines and timeless elegance.

Rosewood Hotels & Resorts operates 27 properties located in 16 different countries. Each Rosewood hotel embodies the brand's philosophy, summed up in the claim “A Sense of Place”, a commitment to faithfully reflect the history, culture and sensibilities of each building.

The Castiglion del Bosco estate is an idyllic Tuscan retreat, surrounded by a rich cultural and natural heritage, renowned for its Italian charm in welcoming families, couples and food lovers. Among breathtaking natural landscapes with their luxuriant flora, the estate with over 800 years of history, founded by Massimo and Chiara Ferragamo, includes the ruins of an ancient castle, a medieval church and the Borgo, a historic village that today represents the heart of the Resort.

By the end of the summer, 19 new suites will be inaugurated. They will be located within a new complex, an extension of the Borgo - the heart of the ancient farming community of the property - and will have a heated semi-Olympic swimming pool available. with a panoramic view of Montalcino and the Val d'Orcia. Each suite will have a bedroom, some of which are communicating up to a total of three bedrooms, ideal for families or groups of friends.

The design reflects the timeless yet contemporary style of the estate, where luxury meets Tuscan elegance. The use of technology is discreet, helping to make the experience even more exclusive, as in the case of the sophisticated lighting and audio system equipped with loudspeakers. Thanks to the contribution of local workers, the modern furnishings blend with nineteenth-century antiques from ancient Tuscan residences. All the finishes are noteworthy, such as the beamed ceilings, the Tuscan terracotta, the ceramic mosaics and the travertine bathroom coverings, while the curtains, carpets and fabrics are inspired by the colors of nature and the Sienese land. In the words of Chiara Ferragamo, co-founder of Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco, "in this pristine estate with timeless charm, guests find that 'sense of home' that only we Italians know how to create".

In addition to the suite offer, the 11 one-of-a-kind luxury villas offer guests an oasis like no other. Carefully restored, they are elegant mansions obtained from 17th and 18th century Tuscan residences. They are equipped with fully equipped kitchens, heated swimming pools for maximum exclusivity, terraces and gardens with breathtaking views of the fascinating Tuscan landscape.

The Osteria La Canonica, completely renovated, offers the atmosphere of an authentic Tuscan “trattoria” (genuine restaurant). On its shaded veranda, seasonal products from the organic garden combine with the best local ingredients to create traditional Tuscan dishes. Executive chef Matteo Temperini - known for the Michelin stars won in his previous experiences - founds his passion for culinary invention in the deep bond between food, land and community, a distinctive feature of his Tuscany. Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco is also known for its famous wine tours and wine tastings in its renowned cellar. The resort also offers a cooking school, a spa, and a private 18-hole golf club. With the “Commitment to Care” program, Rosewood is strongly committed to ensuring the highest levels of health and safety protection, providing guests with a safer experience.
