Welcome to your Aristocratic Holiday Home in Italy. We offer more than just a holiday Villa. We offer an unparalleled and authentic luxury Castle experience and our signature professional service. An authentic 1500 acre (590 hectares) Medieval estate dating back to the 11th Century and belonging since 1901 to a real noble family, where history meets the finest Italian hospitality and a strong commitment to eco-sustainability. The space This remarkable medieval estate is home to one of our most historic Castle villas in Italy owned by the noble family descended from emperor Napoleon Bonaparte. You’ll find it nestled on 1,500 acres in the rolling hills of Umbria, the green heart of Italy. With a nature reserve and scenic lakes, this fairytale landscape is also home to several other castles. The Pieve San Quirico castle is the most exclusive vacation home to enjoy a holiday with a family or friends. Complete with a courtyard for events and an octagonal tower, this is also the perfect setting for an unbelievable wedding. The castle provides comfortable accommodation for 15 people. This castle-home can be booked as a Self- Catering or as a “Villa Hotel”: all the services of a grand-hotel are available on request. Originally designed in the 11th Century and enlarged by architects of Emperor Frederick II of Swabia in the 13th Century, this Medieval castle is, once again, restored to its most luxurious iteration. The furnishings are stylish and refined, yet comfortable with cozy fireplaces and plush sofas and armchairs. In the fully equipped professional kitchen you’ll find stainless steel appliances and everything you will need for cooking for a crowd, or ask your Dedicated Concierge about cook services available at extra cost. This is a perfect property to host an event for a group of friends and family. You’ll find plenty of outdoor seating areas, terraces with panoramic views of the landscape, a children’s playground, stone barbecue, billiards table, bocce ball court and a saltwater infinity pool. There’s even a church on site, making it especially ideal for a wedding celebration, and the gardens filled with "David Austin" roses, fruit and olive trees would make a beautiful backdrop for photos. Take some time exploring the nearby walking and biking trails; the surrounding woods are home to partridge, roe deer and wild boar. “Chianina” cattle, chicken and geese are reared on the scenic farmland surrounding the villa. The nearest village is a 5-minute drive away, where you’ll find restaurants and local shops, while an 18-hole golf course designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr. is just 10 minutes away.
