Location

Located in Montalcino, Tuscany, in the heart of the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Val d'Orcia, Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco is set within a 5,000-acre, 800-year-old estate in Italy.

A 5,000-acre estate gracing the Tuscan countryside, Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco offers a picture-perfect landscape. Located just 90 kilometers (56 miles) from Florence and 45 kilometers (28 miles) from Siena, the resort rests on gently rolling hills and knolls which present themselves as large expanses of green in springtime and are later bathed in golden hues in autumn.

Situated on the ancient Via Francigena, a route travelled by merchants and pilgrims, Castiglion del Bosco is a vibrant wildlife reserve offering dense woodlands teeming with deer, wild boar, pheasants and badgers. The estate is located within the Val d'Orcia, a nature, culture and art reserve established in 1996. The valley embodies the quintessential Renaissance landscape, and has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2004.
