My partner and I stayed 4 nights at Castello di Tornano and it was a truly memorable experience! The location is fantastic, with beautiful views of the Tuscan hills and vinyards, and mile after mile of protected wild forest. Despite Florence and Siena being very easily reachable it felt so peaceful, and a real respite from hustle and bustle with the only noise usually being the birds. The castle also has so much history to appreciate, the swimming pool used to be the castle moat! You can go up to the top of the tower for a gorgeous 360 view of the landscape, and with so little light pollution we'd really recommend it for a bit of romantic stargazing.
Our room was very comfortable, with a wide (and long!) bed and a great shower (good temperature and water pressure). The castle is elegantly decorated with both modern and ancient pieces, such as several suits of armour but also abstract paintings by local artists. There's obviously been a lot of effort put in by the management to retain the original castle feeling while still providing modern luxuries, which we felt they've done very well.
The staff was so helpful and nice, without exception they made us feel very welcome! We would highly recommend the cooking class, where we prepared a full Tuscan menu with local ingredients, including herbs from the castle's own garden. Another day we took the e-bikes and explored the local area, very recommended! These are perfect for the Tuscan hills, and you do not need to be in great shape to ride around :)
We ate two nights at the restaurant and everything on the menu was delicious. It is hard to find something specifically to recommend as it was all so good, but we would have to suggest the game meat, the cold cuts, any pasta, the sirloin, and the unexpectedly tasty salt and olive oil ice cream. Matteo is an artist at the grill, and we will remember the Flintstone-sized bistecca for years to come! Despite being gluten free, we never felt limited or like we were settling for second best. The chef was great at adapting for gluten free food, and the allergens were clearly indicated. The wines were also superb!
One thing to note: the last mile to the castle is a rather steep, unpaved track, which at first glance looked a bit more adventurous than we were expecting. However, we were able to traverse it easily with a tiny 0.7L Lancia Ypsilon, so if we could do it, anyone can!

We had such a special time at Poggio Amorelli! Francesca was informative, attentive, helpful, and made the morning so much fun. The views from the patio were fantastic, and the food was delectable. I am gluten free and they were able to accommodate every single dish for me, which was such a treat! Thank you Francesca and staff!

My 5 friends and I visited Tenuta Doici today and it was absolutely fabulous! Top service from Stephan and Gigi was very informative and lovely. They even made gluten free meals for myself which I appreciated.
Shout out to Martino for giving us a lift into town as there was no taxis.

We came here for our Grans birthday dinner celebration and it was the most incredible experience! We were served the most delicious food made with fresh, gorgeous ingredients. Alessandro and his team were amazing - so friendly and kind. They went above and beyond to make the evening special and even catered for gluten free and vegan requirements. We absolutely loved it and I’d travel all the way back to Montalcino to do it again. Could not recommend more highly!

Personally, I went there a few days ago during the day and I will certainly return to have dinner or lunch with friends, even those with celiac disease like me. Definitely sociable staff. Place to relax and spend cool hours even in summer being close to Castiglione della Pescaia. Dishes cooked divinely Place suitable for children of all sizes with adjoining play area, furry friends welcome. Surrounded by olive trees. Large room and patio where you can eat and in the summer the possibility of being outside. Highly recommended and I will return. Yes to vegetarian cuisine.
