Well, this was a bucket list item-to stay in an old castle-and this experience did not disappoint! The host met us and helped us with various items such as parking and reservations-she was so very lovely and helpful! The guardian of the property, Salvadore, gave us a tour of the castle and shared the details of the restorations he did. This very old castle has significant history with 2 popes having lived in this fortress/castle. The location is amazing with the old town right outside your door. The town is interesting and easy to explore. We also went to a town close by called Calcutta, which we would also highly recommend. I would HIGHLY recommend this experience. Bring a sweater as it can be cool in the castle would be my advise. The facility is very comfortable and well equipped. I hope we can come back for another visit!
