Like a fairytale, the location 44 announces itself in the enchanting Chianti landscape at the end of a pleasant driveway lined with cypresses and junipers, amid sun-kissed fields and vineyards.
The Castle's history is also a history of Weddings, such as those of Alberto Firidolfi's daughter Lucrezia and, in 1852, Baron Bettino's daughter Elisabetta: it could also become the history of Your wedding, against a background imbued with extraordinary beauty.
Wedding receptions can be organised at the Castle: the entire Piano Nobile (a series of furnished and frescoed rooms) can be put at Guests' disposal together with the garden, a splendid terrace overlooking the unspoilt panorama of the Chianti hills, and the Stables, where you can relax or let yourself go in dancing.
The Celebrations can be organised as you wish: aperitif in the garden, lunch or dinner in the Castle and dancing in the Stables; or aperitif in the Castle, lunch or dinner in the Stables and the garden for enjoying a touch of sun.
You can receive Your guests in this villa and they will be enchanted by such special surroundings: they can move from room to room, pause in the sitting rooms, admire the paintings and furniture and then go, with curiosity, into the little 18 th century theatre where you can surprise them with a musical performance.
The kitchen made available to your chosen caterers is large, spacious and fully equipped with the most modern appliances. So the food too will leave a pleasant memory for you and Your guests!
You and any of your guests who have come from far off can stay in the B&B rooms situated on the first floor of the Castle, in the Casa (Priest's House) next to the Castle, and in the farm apartments.
For religious symbolic weddings there is a small private chapel overlooking the square opposite the Castle.
For a larger number of guests there is the Romanesque Parish Church, that is only 2 kilometres from the Castle.
And after the celebrations, for a dreamlike night...the Baron's bedroom awaits you...for a well-deserved rest!
in the location 44 is possible also organise: a guided tour of the Castle and its Old Cellar underground; a tasting of our products; a fine barbecue to welcome guests who are staying at the Castle; a Mediaeval evening, with live music and singing in a soft, evocative atmosphere lit only by torches, naked flames, oil lamps and candles.
