This was our second time staying at Castel Brunello. The property is beautiful, clean, very comfortable, great location. Erna and her staff are so helpful and friendly. We love the breakfast every morning. It’s a place that feels like home, very comfortable.

Charming and very picturesque property delivers everything you could want in a Tuscan stay. The views are incredible, and the Staff are all genuine and lovely. Small touches made us feel right at home. The Neal we had in town was one of our favorites in Italy … ever. Truly memorable and we highly recommend a stay here.

My only complaint is seeing ashtrays by all outdoor seating, but I guess this is Europe. Thankfully no one was smoking while we were there as we were the only guests.

Gorgeous setting overlooking vineyards. We traveled with our two kids ages 10 and 7 and were upgraded to a 3 bedroom, 2 bath apartment located above the breakfast room. We loved the apartment with two terraces and stunning views. The apartment included and washing machine and detergent was available upon request. The refrigerator was stocked with drinks available for purchase. My husband enjoyed the Brunello wines available for purchase as well. We were there mid April and the pool had just opened for the season. The property manager Erna had just turned in the pool heater for us. The pool itself is stunning and my kids loved it. My kids also loved the friendly cats that wandered the property. Some reviews complained about noisy AC units but our unit wasn’t noisy at all. The rooms had mini splits and they were very quiet. We were the only guests staying there at the time and it was pretty amazing having the whole place to ourselves. Breakfast was delicious and we appreciated being able to get eggs made to order along with cappuccino, hot chocolate and freshly squeezed orange juice. The lobby has a stack of games that you can take back to your room. There is a cute playground just a block from the property and a soccer field a few blocks away. The small town is adorable and the two restaurants within a 5 min walk were delicious. Montalcino city center is a 10 min drive.

Nothing everything exceeded our expectations.

So very quaint. The grounds were beautifully kept, gardens were natural and provided wonderful scents as you passed by. The staff were so helpful. They chatted with us about the property and helped us with dinner reservations and gave us lots of suggestions on places to sight see. We went to both restaurants in the local town and both were great.

Everything exceeded our expectations. The owner/ innkeeper, Erna was friendly and had an incredible attention to detail. Our room was amazing, with beautiful views of Sant'Angelo in Colle and the surrounding vineyards. Every morning, breakfast was a treat. There was cooked to order eggs, fresh fruit, meat and cheeses, fresh pastries and local jams and honey. My favorite were the fresh figs, stuffed with a walnut and a little drizzle of honey. Absolutely decadent! The staff was professional and helpful. Evenings overlooking the vineyards, watching the sunset, made for a magical experience. It is a short walk into the charming town and there are hiking trails close by. My husband and I loved it!

The host was amazing! The property is beautiful and we had a wonderful little holiday enjoying the Tuscan countryside with our family.

The only issue with my stay here is that there was a footboard on the bed, and I don't believe the photos indicated on. This made it very uncomfortable as a tall person.

The photos on booking do not do justice to how beautiful the place is. The pool and the grounds are breathtaking. The staff is very welcoming.

There is nothing better I could imagine this place doing. Everything went smooth and we are already planning on returning some time in the future. I guess if I had to choose something, maybe they put out wine and cheese in the afternoons during the weekends possibly. We stayed in a place that offered this small amenity and it was greatly appreciated.

The location was perfect and close to places we planned on going. The breakfast was perfect everyday. The hosts had a good breakfast spread and also asked if we needed anything else as far as coffee or any specialty dishes.

Absolutely beautiful! The location is perfect for enjoying everything Tuscany has to offer. Erna is an extraordinary host who went above and beyond for our every request… including buying access to SkySports so my husband could watch the Rider Cup during our stay. I really can’t say enough good things about this property and we will definitely come back!

I liked everything.

Everything was exceptional. Erna was extremely pleasant and always available to answer questions. She helped book restaurants and advised us about local vineyards and other places to see. Castel Brunella is very well located and was like a little paradise to come home to after exploring nearby towns. It is also a short walk to a couple of great restaurants and a small convenience store. The accommodations, the private patio and shared pool were amazing with fantastic views. It was fun to buy local foods and cook a couple of meals at home. The breakfast could not have been better - the selection of food (breads, cereal, pastries, cheeses, meats, fruits, nuts, eggs, etc.) is sure to please all tastes. The staff is very friendly. There is also a washing machine which came in handy as we did not bring a lot of luggage. I loved this place and not only recommend it but would stay here again.

We wish we could have stayed longer- zero complaints!

Castel Brunello was our favorite stay during our 2 week road trip in Tuscany. It is so much more beautiful and picturesque than what is conveyed online. Erna and her family are amazing hosts and caretakers of the property. She was so helpful with property information, recommendations, setting up wine tours and restaurant reccs (we loved Leccio!) We are English speakers and never had any issues communicating with Erna or Brunello’s staff. Let Erna set up restaurant reservations in the village. There is nothing like relaxing after a long day and wandering up to town for dinner in the square- so romantic and authentically European. The pool area has many spaces to relax, read and eat. Breakfast was wonderful and appreciated before heading off on an adventure. The omelet was delicious- along with a full continental breakfast (yogurt bar, breads, sweets, etc). We appreciated the washer in the room and the free/easy parking. A 10/10 - let Erna treat you like family- she hosts with the perfect mix of provided privacy and nurturing warmth. Highly recommend!
