Villa Gauggiole

Castiglion del Bosco

The essence

Villa Gauggiole sits in open countryside a few minutes from the borgo, a restored stone house where timbered ceilings and thick walls hold the cool of a Tuscan summer. Four en-suite bedrooms sleep eight across the main house and a private guest annex, with vineyard and Val d'Orcia views on every side. A pool house with a fitness room edges the heated pool, an outdoor wood-fired oven waits on the terrace, and — as at every Castiglion del Bosco villa — a Land Rover Defender is yours for the stay, to roam the estate's five thousand acres at will.

The distinction

Why Villa Gauggiole
is in the collection.

01
Four en-suite bedrooms for eight — three in the main house, one in a private guest annex with its own shaded pergola.
02
A heated pool with a dedicated pool house and fitness room, and an outdoor wood-fired oven for long lunches under the sky.
03
Full Rosewood service on a 5,000-acre Val d'Orcia estate — daily breakfast, housekeeping, concierge and a Land Rover Defender.

The house

Architecture & restoration

Carefully restored stone and timber throughout: a living room with fireplace, dining area and Tuscan kitchen on the ground floor; three en-suite bedrooms above; and a fourth in a guest annex with a decorative fireplace. Touchscreen controls handle climate, lighting and audio, and air conditioning runs throughout.

The setting

Land, view, context

Countryside seclusion 3.6 km from the medieval borgo, with sweeping views over the vineyards and hills of the Val d'Orcia Natural Park.

Living here

Breakfast delivered each morning, days by the pool with the fitness room and pool house to hand, the Defender for drives to Montalcino and Pienza — and the estate's winery, golf, spa and Michelin-starred table a short way across the valley.

The estate

Part of Castiglion del Bosco.

One of thirteen private villas and suites on the five-thousand-acre Castiglion del Bosco estate, a Rosewood hotel in the UNESCO-listed Val d'Orcia near Montalcino. Houses can be taken together, and the medieval borgo — or the entire estate — reserved for exclusive use, with the resort's restaurants, spa, winery and golf club all on hand. A rare canvas for a wedding, a milestone celebration or a multi-family gathering.
