It's a real old House, but that is the charm of it. The atmosphere and the garden and Terrace is something special. We were looking for something like this and found it

Beautiful location in Tuscany and short drive to Florence. Unfortunately due to the heat wave at the time of our visit it was challenging.

Our place was great, we had a beautiful stay. The place was gorgeous and clean. It’s a old castle but with very beautiful grounds. We were a family group of nine. The stairs were quite steep and hard to get to the forth floor but worth it. Beautiful views of the Tuscan hills.

Beautiful old castle
We stayed for three nights and really enjoyed our stay. There were things that could have been improved on… For example, there was nowhere to get breakfast or lunch. The nearest town is a good little hike down a hill and back up with groceries so having a car is a must. We used the local bus line and it was inconvenient. It would be great if they could provide a continental breakfast or even a vending machine for snacks/water. The castle itself was beautiful. The grounds and swimming pool were very much appreciated. And the castle even has a wonderful restaurant serving dinners every night but Tuesday.

Todo fantástico 10/10!! Hemos tenido unas vacaciones de ensueño! Solo me gustaría destacar como algo negativo el Restaurante del castillo: Me parece increíble que en un sitio tan maravilloso no tengan una mejor cocina. La peor pasta que hemos probado en toda la Toscana y un trato muy lejos del que han demostrado el resto de trabajadores del castillo. Poner música pop de la radio con un volumen muy alto con un altavoz portátil, en una sala que no es muy grande no es nada agradable y no concuerda con el ambiente que se respira en Montegufoni. Lo considero un apartado aparte y por eso no bajo la calificación. El castillo como estancia es maravilloso!!

Review for stay from 05 August 2019 to 12 August 2019
The place was absolutely amazing, very nice area and beautiful old castle. Our huge apartment was quite unique especially the living room (galleria) was very beautiful. nice rooms with beautiful views and good bathrooms everything in romantic / rustic style. Nice terrasse. However, some of the furniture was some worn and especially the kitchen and accessories there needed an update (Nice to know that there is no oven and the coffee maker was missing the jug). However, the staff were incredibly sweet to help and very welcoming. The restaurant was fine too - very nice people there, but the barbeque night was a little sad with the food accessories. The pool area and garden were very beautiful and relaxing. Is nicely located (by car) compared to the exciting sights of Firentze, Livorno, Pisa, wine tasting, San giminone etc. Would highly recommend it, but you should not expect a modern hotel but an atmospheric beautiful old castle you never forget.

We (our family of five) had a very relaxing stay. We had a car to explore area: there are so many beautiful spots to explore. The huge living room with frescoed ceilings was fantastic and the Italian garden just outside was amazing. Our kids absolutely loved the use of the pool. Many thanks to Possarelli family for their ospitality.

We enjoyed very much our stay at Montegufoni. Stefania was really kind and we appreciated her hospitality. Very good dinners at Il Ristorantino. We stayed in the apartment Galleria for a week and it was a beautiful experience. During our stay we booked a wine tasting and we visited the Uffizi + Accademia. We highly recommend this place.

Наша семья провела незабываемые 3 недели в замке Монтегуфони(Галерея).Галерея это огромные апартаменты с восхитительными видами на холмы Тосканы. Безупречная чистота и обслуживание.Близость ко всем достопримечательностям Тосканы,делают замок необыкновенно привлекательным.Удивительный комфорт и уют в спальнях на верхних этажах и бесподобная галерея с потрясающими фресками на первом.Теплый чистый бассейн ,окруженный живой изгородью,круглосуточный wi-fi на рецепшен,хороший ресторан,близость автобусной остановки(50 метров от замка)все это создает ощущение комфортного прибывания. Монтегуфони это настоящая итальянская сказка. Анна.Россия

Review for stay from 14 July 2012 to 21 July 2012
The Galleria appartment is huge, there is really no way to prepare yourself for the size of the living room/ball room. It occupies an entire wing of the castle. The team on site were very nice and accommodating. The castle is old and needs some more TLC . You can really tell the building is very very old. However the facilities are nice. Getting in there the only thing missing was the butler.... With an apartment this big you need one. The living room is 24 meters from one end to the other. Add 10-11m more before you hit the front door. No AC - but fans do the trick to keep you cool at night.
