Castello di Valenzano

Castello di Valenzano is only 30 minutes by car from Arezzo Exit of A1 motorway ("Autostrada del Sole"), and one hour by car from Florence, Siena, Cortona, Perugia and the Chianti region; it is located right at the gates of the Foreste Casentinesi National Park, in a beautiful valley rich of castles, monasteries and Romanesque parish churches, at an altitude of about 500 metres above sea level.
With its thousand-years of history (the first settlement was born as a watch-tower during the late period of Lombard Kingdom - Regnum Langobardorum - between the end of 9th Century and the beginning of 10th Century), the castle now houses a stylish Restaurant and a comfortable Residenza d’Epoca (Historical Residence).
After having tasted the delicious food of our Restaurant and enjoyed the beauty of the castle, you can spend your time in the rooms of ancient charm, plunged in a fairy-tale environment where you can savour the atmosphere of the past and relax in the big tree-lined park, enjoying the silence and the gorgeous view of Pratomagno Mountains.
