Set deep within the rolling hills of Arezzo, Castel Federigo rises from a sea of olive groves and chestnut woods, its stone turrets and Renaissance loggias standing quietly against the vast Tuscan sky. Built in a distinctive square layout with four corner towers and a raised central body, this 16th-century castle offers an extraordinary escape steeped in heritage and charm.

Inside, twelve spacious bedrooms sleep up to twenty four guests, each offering its own unique character. Vaulted ceilings adorned with frescoes, painted wooden beams, antique furnishings and soft textiles from the renowned local weaver Busatti create a sense of quiet elegance throughout. One standout suite features a remarkable frescoed ceiling, while others look out to the hills or across the gardens below.

A glazed loggia leads to a small chapel, ideal for peaceful moments or simply basking in the filtered afternoon light. The main dining room, framed by French windows, opens onto a terrace for alfresco gatherings, with another table and chairs nestled in the garden.

Just above, a long, fenced pool offers breathtaking views over the Tuscan landscape, thoughtfully designed with young guests in mind. Castel Federigo invites you to celebrate, unwind and savour the timeless rhythm of rural Italy.

What Oliver loves...

  • The vaulted frescoed ceilings in the twin suite feel like sleeping inside a Renaissance painting.
  • There is an infinity pool with open countryside views, safely fenced and thoughtfully placed above the gardens.
  • Revel in the estate’s sense of history, from its Barbolani lineage to French-windowed dining terraces.
  • Every bedroom has its own unique charm, from antique wardrobes to artisanal Tuscan textiles.

What you should know

  • Six of the twelve bedrooms share bathroom facilities, which may require coordination for larger groups.
  • The location is scenic but somewhat remote; the valley setting adds tranquillity but may limit mobile signal.
  • The terrain surrounding the estate is natural and hilly, which could be a challenge for those with mobility issues.
  • When minimum occupancy is booked, all common areas will be available but some bedrooms may not be accessible and this remains at the owner's discretion. Please enquire should you require details.
  • Base capacity varies by season, 16 is required in high and mid season while only 10 is required during low season. Please also note that mid-week discounted stays are available on request, please enquire for more information. 
  • Please note that there is no heating on the second floor so this bedroom should not be used during winter.
