Una splendida giornata! Ad accogliere il nostro gruppo di amici, Marta che ci ha accompagnati nei secoli di storia del Castello, fin dalle origini. In una cornice curata e da sogno abbiamo visitato un ala del castello, le storiche cantine ed ammirato un panorama mozzafiato. L’esperienza si è conclusa con una eccellente degustazione di vini sapientemente illustrata. Grazie Marta per la tua professionalità, disponibilità e cortesia.Abbiamo avuto anche la fortuna di conoscere e di scambaire qualche parola con il Marchese Misciattelli.Una piacevole sorpresa, poco distante da casa nostra! Da non perdere !!!

Consigliatissimo. Elegante l'aspetto esterno ; autentico quello interno. Molto cordiale e preparato il personale. Perfetto l'ambiente ed anche il riposo notturno. Stanze panoramiche. Eccellente la prima colazione con prodotti di nicchia. Ritorneremo.

Un grande castello con una piccola cantina di eccellenza Abbiamo avuto una visita guidata al Castello e alla Cantina, con degustazione di tre vini. La guida ci ha accompagnato narrando la vita e la storia del Castello, l'evoluzione della tenuta e, con molta competenza, ha spiegato il processo di vinificazione. Il luogo è incantevole, l'esperienza è stata molto bella, direi "immersiva" proprio grazie alla guida. Ci vogliono almeno due ore per poter fare la visita, ne vale la pena. Abbiamo anche incontrato i padroni di casa, che sono venuti a salutare personalmente, con eleganza e semplicità. Al termine sosta al negozio per acquistare le bottiglie dell'ottimo vino MiMoSo del 2012 e "T" del 2015.

Fantastisk Et besøg hos Rikke og Lorenzo på Montegiove Er en oplevelse værd! Det vidunderlige smukke middelalder slot beliggende i Umbrien bland vinmarker og skøn natur er helt ubeskrivelig. Dette slot producerer klasse vin og det “danske” par Rikke og Lorenzo har passionen og kvalitet med hele vejen. Deres lejligheder er af høj kvalitet og der er sikret en ferie i disse skønne omgivelser som man kun kan nyde! Rikke og Lorenzo er begge meget imødekommende, gæstfrie og vidunderlige værter. Så absolut et besøg værd!

Wunderbar Wir waren für eine Woche im großen Appartement eingemietet. Auf zwei Etagen hatten wir bei satten 160 qm mehr als ausreichend Platz. Alles war sauber und liebevoll eingerichtet und es fehlt an gar nichts.Die Burg selbst ist ebenso ein Traum. Mit einer ganz speziellen Stimmung gab es immer wieder zauberhafte Ecken zu entdecken. Der Salzwasserpool ist ausreichend groß und hat für alle ausreichend Liegen. Und als Sahnehäubchen eine spektakuläre Aussicht.Die Gastgeber Rikke und Lorenzo sind zauberhafte Menschen. Immer freundlich, zuvorkommend und hilfsbereit, aber auch immer dezent im Hintergrund. Man merkt an allen Ecken, wie viel Herzblut sie in ihre Burg stecken.Allerdings muss man sich bewusst sein, dass man doch etwas außerhalb von Trubel und Leben ist. Ein kleiner Supermarkt ist ca. 8 km entfernt, erste ernsthafte Infrastruktur benötigt aber in der Regel eine halbe Stunde Fahrt. Dafür hört man im Castello in der Regel nur den Wind und die Zikaden.Wer also Ruhe und Entspannung in einer wunderbaren Umgebung mit viel Platz und Komfort sucht, ist in Montegiove genau richtig.Wir kommen in jedem Fall wieder!

Absolute recommendation. We had a great time! I was a guest at Castello di montegiove for a week together with my girlfriend. Rikke and her family are the best hosts we could imagine. We were really positively surprised. The flat was very clean and lovingly furnished. Every recommendation from Rikke and her husband were excellent. We were especially happy about the invitation to a guided tour through the castle and the wine production and about the possibility to participate in a truffle hunt. Absolutely recommended! We will gladly come back and thank you for the great time.

Einfach alles perfekt!! Unser Aufenthalt im Castello di Montegiove war einfach nur perfekt! Die Wohnung "LECCINO" hatte wirklich alles was man sich wünschen kann. Das Wohnzimmer und die Küche sind riesig und so wundervoll eingerichtet. Es hat wirklich alles Klasse und Stil. Vom Schrank, über die Bettwäsche, zum Geschirr. Der Privatgarten mit Terrasse und Grill war für uns und unsere Kinder perfekt. Der Infinity Pool war herrlich kühl und es gibt genügend Sonnenliegen für alle Personen. Die organisierte Schlossbesichtigung und Weintour war sehr informativ und toll gemacht von der Familie. Wir konnten sogar noch auf Trüffelsuche, welche die Familie ebenfalls für uns organisierte. Wir waren rundum zufrieden und würden jedem unserer Freunde diese Wohnung und das Anwesen weiterempfehlen. Rikke und Lorenzo waren einfach perfekte Gastgeber. (das Einzige was ich mir für nächstes Mal wünschen würde, ist ein 3. Sonnenschirm am Pool :-)) Liebe Rikke, lieber Lorenzo, herzlichen Dank nochmals für diese tolle und unvergessliche Woche bei Euch. Wir wünschen Euch eine gute Zeit und ganz liebe Grüsse von uns an Euch. Claudine, Dominik, Nick & Paulina

Great place to relax and enjoy living in a Castello! The Castello is very nicely located on a small hill! It’s surrounded by pine trees - Rikke and Lorenzo take great care of this place! They are doing there best to help you in all matters! If you like good Italian red and rose wine we strongly recommend a castle tour and the wine tasting afterwards. Seeing how these wines are produced was very nice and of course the taste is very good as well! We would love to come back to Montegiove at our next trip to Italy!

Spectacular, magical castle with an infinity pool, winery, countryside, and warm hosts Our family of four stayed for one week in the 2 1/2 bedroom expansive, beautifully appointed apartment in the converted olive oil mill at the castle. We are experienced travelers, but this was truly the best vacation of our lives. How can you feel anything but spoiled when you are relaxing at the castle pool after truffle hunting in the forest, wine tasting in the castle, and before eating an amazing meal at a local restaurant? This really is a special place and I would recommend it for larger groups (you can rent out both refurbished apartments in the converted olive oil mill), or for a romantic honeymoon stay for a couple.The castle is located in beautiful countryside, about 2 hours drive from each of Florence or Rome, so is in a great central location. We weren't sure how driving would be, so we took a train from Florence to the closest town to the castle, Chiusi, and rented a car there. But we found it very easy and comfortable driving, including for our trip down to Rome afterwards.The warm and welcoming family that own the castle (Lorenzo, Rikke, and their daughters) provide wine tours of their excellent winery, a fascinating castle tour, and recommendations of local restaurants, activities or towns to visit. We highly recommend day trips to Assisi and Orvieto, but there are many options.We also cooked in the spacious kitchen using local ingredients, including our hunted truffles! And we enjoyed eating on the back yard patio and enjoying the castle's wine under the stars. The town at the castle also has an excellent restaurant where we had some of the finest lasagne we have ever had!While the castle is in the countryside and can provide a secluded getaway for those wanting to relax, hike and escape, there is also more than enough to see and do in the many nearby towns and cities. The beds were comfortable and we slept so well. One thing that was important to us because we both had to work during part of our vacation, was having reliable internet, and we were glad to find that. The hardest part of this vacation was leaving and we cannot wait to return.We can't recommend it enough, and I am sighing wistfully as I write this, missing our wonderful vacation!

A very special and memorable stay! What a wonderful week! We stayed in one of the apartments in the Olive Mill (sleeps 6), beautifully renovated and well equipped. Rikke couldn't have been more hospitable and helpful, making our stay a really memorable and fantastic holiday. A beautiful pool a short walk around the castle and the most glorious views of the surrounding countryside. The recommendations that Rikke gave on places to visit, restaurants to try and the wonderful tour of the castle and wine tasting really were special. A really special place! (and the wine was wonderful.... by the way!). Feel very lucky and privileged to have had the chance to stay here... thank you Rikke and Lorenzo for sharing your castle and for making it such a wonderful place to visit.
