Villa Castiglione

A Tuscan countryside hideaway just a stone’s throw from Florence.

Remarkable
8.8 /10
By Ellie Burnage, VeryChic correspondent
I’ve always thought that birthdays don’t live up to expectations. Don’t get me wrong, I love being treated to a thoughtful present or two, but I’ve never quite believed in the birthday magic – until this year. When a plane ticket to Tuscany fell out of my mum’s card, I was overjoyed. A week in the luxury of the magnificent Villa Castiglione, a former Franciscan convent looking out over the rolling Tuscan hills – how wonderful! But even better, we would be right on the doorstep of the magnificent Florence. If this wasn’t going to be a birthday to remember, I don’t know what would be.

Chic idea: to make the most of your time in Florence, book your tickets in advance for a wide range of activities, here.

  • Trying a local delicacy. Originally enjoyed as a cheap street food by the working class of the city, the lampredotto sandwich is made from the fourth stomach of a cow, cooked with tomatoes and herbs and served sliced in a bun soaked in broth, with accompanying sauces. It may sound a bit gruesome, but this sandwich has stood the test of time – give it a go at Il Trippaio di San Frediano. Piazza dei Nerli, Firenze, Italy.
  • Seeing Florence from up high. Spend an afternoon wandering in the Boboli Gardens, which offer fantastic views amidst beautiful statues, wisteria arches and Roman antiquities. Piazza Pitti, 1, 50125 Firenze, Florence.
  • Visit the hidden gem nestled in the hillside of Florence: the Stibbert Museum. This house museum, spread across two enormous villas, has extensive collections of historical armour from all over the world, theatrically displayed. Well worth a visit! Stibbert Museum, Via Federigo Stibbert 26, Firenze, Italy.
  • For a different day out, head to Volterra. Just over an hour away from the hotel, this vibrant Tuscan hill town has a thriving industry and an authentic feel. But watch your step for vampires…some of the Twilight Saga was filmed here.
