Reviews for Borgo Castelvecchi
Dream wedding at Borgo Castelvecchi
We want to thank Barbara, Daniele and Sofia for being incredibly kind, flexible and providing the best service since day 1. During our wedding weekend we needed to make some adjustments; change the room list, add extra people to wine tasting, dinners and change the timing on the wedding day a bit. None of these points were any problem for Barbara, Sofia and Daniele. The staff saw solutions and made the changes without a hesitation. What we appreciate most is how friendly they were every day, and did not stress us as a wedding couple. They were professional and at the same time it felt like we knew them for a long time - we had some nice and funny moments together!
The food and wines were amazing. We travelled in Italy to different cities after the wedding, and we can truly say that the best food we had was at Borgo Castelvecchi! Many of our guests complimented the food we had, and especially the pizza and the dinner at the wedding day is hard to forget!
The location itself is charming, romantic and the pool area is perfect when it’s a bit warm. We loved that the Borgo could accommodate all of our guests! The views were breath taking! All the rooms were nice, clean and there were fans in all rooms.
On the wedding day, the ceremony was located in the garden and the dinner in front of the main area and the party on the terrace. We loved that there were 3 different spots (all next to each other), because it was perfect for each part of the big day.
We truly recommend Borgo Castelvecchi to everyone who is considering having their wedding there! Staff, food, wines, location, facilities and the rooms are perfect. It was better than we could ever imagine! We felt that we were guests on our wedding because the staff have such a good control on everything.
We are planning to visit Borgo Castelvecchi next summer, just to say hi to Barbara, Daniele and Sofia and have a glimpse of the place where we had the best days of our lives.

Marta & Tom wedding, 27.10.2025
The professionalism, helpfulness, and kindness of the entire staff is something rare these days, but at Castelvecchi it reigns supreme.
It was an unforgettable experience for all of us, one that will remain for a long time among our dearest memories.
Marta and Tom's magical wedding
From day one Barbara and Daniele were really helpful and responsive in helping Marta by giving her a list of known vendors as she has been her own wedding planner.
We have spent some special three days in Castelvecchi where we were all welcomed with great warmth. All the events have been perfectly organised, despite the crazy weather which has caused some last minute change of plans...all has been rearranged in a blink of an eye and seamlessly to make the day run smoothly.
The food was excellent thanks to Sofia and all her team!
Overall the attention to detail was extraordinary,
I strongly recommend Borgo Castelvecchi which has been made even more beautiful by all the incredible people who run it. Thank you to each ad everyone of you!
Grazie! Paola

The most INCREDIBLE wedding weekend
A Dream Wedding Venue – Unforgettable Experience!
A huge thank you also to Sofia, Lorenzo, and the entire team at Ristorante Castelvecchi. From the welcome pizza party to the wedding dinner and light lunch, everything was absolutely delicious. They were so flexible and thoughtful – my husband is vegetarian and they made sure we had plenty of great veggie options throughout the entire stay. They even organized a birthday cake for one of our friends who was celebrating her birthday during the wedding!
If you're dreaming of a magical wedding in Tuscany with amazing food, stunning surroundings, and a team that truly cares – Borgo Castelvecchi is the place. We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend it to anyone planning a destination wedding!

Forever in Our Hearts: Our Unforgettable Borgo Castelvecchi Wedding 🤍
The Borgo's historical charm and stunning Tuscan surroundings provided the perfect escape for our magical ceremony. Every corner, from the romantic, light-strung plaza to the beautiful rose garden, felt like a fairytale. Beyond the celebrations, the Borgo invited our guests to explore, with the pool becoming the ideal hub for refreshing dips and shared fun on hot summer days. Even our dog and cat felt right at home, happily exploring every nook and cranny.
We cannot thank the Castelvecchi team enough for their incredible support and hard work! They made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived and brought all our wishes to life. Thank you for making our unforgettable wedding possible! Since then, we've thought of our magical time at the Borgo almost daily, loving to share those memories with all our friends—from greeting guests from the pool to playing our own concert at the party, we'll never forget our perfect wedding. Grazie mille, Borgo Castelvecchi! 🤍

Beautiful in every way
As an English couple planning from abroad, we had limited opportunities to meet suppliers in person. The team went above and beyond, not only helping us find amazing local vendors but also managing every aspect seamlessly. Their flexibility and dedication meant that any issues were quickly resolved, and they worked tirelessly to bring our vision to life.
The venue itself is breathtaking, full of character, charm, and surrounded by stunning scenery. The winery tour was a wonderful bonus for our guests; many enjoyed it so much they even bought bottles to take home after tasting the wines throughout our celebration. The nearby village is absolutely worth a visit too; it’s quaint, picturesque, and a must-stop for ice cream and pastries at Bar Sampoli. 😍
We kicked off the weekend with a pizza party on the first night, which was an absolute hit. The team took care of everything, serving up fresh pizzas from their traditional oven, each one delicious and not short on options. The chocolate dessert pizza in particular the kids adored!
On our wedding day, everything was simply perfect. The food was outstanding, and the whole day felt relaxed and joyful, allowing us to soak in every moment with our loved ones. Barbara was amazing in the planning all the way through to delivery.
All our guests were blown away by the venue and had nothing but praise for the wonderful staff. It was a weekend we will cherish forever, and we cannot thank the team enough for making it so unforgettable.
The venue itself is beautiful, full of character and incredible scenery. The winery on tour was a great bonus for our guests who enjoyed a look around, and returned to purchase bottles to take home after enjoying it so much during our wedding day. The near by village is well worth a visit, quaint with incredible views and an absolute must to visit Bar Sampoli for their ice cream and pastries 😍
We chose to hold a pizza party on the first night. The team took care of everything. Made fresh in their original pizza oven the pizza's where incredible, and the chocolate dessert pizza went down particularly well with the kids. For our wedding day everything was seamless.
All our guests loved their stay and had nothing but compliments for the venue and the staff. It's a weekend we will never forget and can not thank you enough for making happen!

The wedding weekend of our dreams
We had 70 guests spend three nights with us to celebrate our wedding and it felt like a dream. The venue is absolutely stunning and we were able to use so many different areas (courtyard, front of villa, terrace party area) for every aspect of our wedding.
We had a Pizza Party for our Welcome dinner, our wedding outside under the shade of the villa and stars in the evening and a relaxed pool party and BBQ on the Sunday.
We honestly couldn't of asked for anything more from this venue, the staff are so friendly, welcoming and flexible - allowing you to really make the weekend feel like you are living in a dream and able to achieve anything you want.
Thank you for the best weekend of our lives!
