With a tranquil location in 100-acres of countryside in southern Maremma, this ancient castle invites travellers to indulge in the ultimate Tuscan escape. Originally a ruin, the castle was sympathetically restored and infused with an eclectic blend of Tuscan antiques, Indonesian pieces, and design classics. Two infinity pools sit by the main castle and on a secluded terrace, and each boasts sweeping views across the tree-clad hills and valleys. Massage treatments use organic oils while the garden setting adds to the sense of natural escapism. From wine tastings to cooking lessons, bike rides through olive groves to truffle hunting, the property introduces guests to the natural and cultural beauty of the Tuscan countryside.Dining at Castello di Vicarello is equally evocative of the natural bounty of the landscapes, with seasonal menus sourced from the estate’s organic kitchen garden. Whether dining al fresco on the castle ramparts or enjoying a candlelit dinner under the stars, every meal is a feast for the senses. The nine suites are all individually designed, with antique rugs, handcrafted furniture, natural materials, cloud-like beds, Aesop products and Nespresso machines creating an inviting haven that welcomes you home after a day exploring the Tuscan countryside.
