April 02, 2024

Convento San Bartolomeo historic house, a place of soul, a place that inspires, where the traveler has the privilege to live a magic and intimate experience into history, art and relax.

The Historical Residence "Convento San Bartolomeo" in Piancastagnaio (Si) is a magical and exclusive place for travelers looking for selected, taylor made and unique experiences. The structure dating back to the thirteenth century preserves much of the ancient splendor with perfectly restored rooms and original frescoes. Although located on Mount Amiata, the Historic Residence Convento San Bartolomeo is an excellent starting point to discover the great classic itineraries of Tuscany: the many hot springs all around, the splendid Val D'Orcia, the uncontaminated woods of Monte Amiata, the medieval villages and the food and wine products of the Maremma area, the Via Francigena.

The Convent San Bartolomeo is the ideal place to make even more unique and special your most important event, your wedding. It provides you with a wide range of possibilities, whether you prefer an indoor or an outdoor service and/or reception. For the organization of events we rely on catering among the most popular and qualified and, on request, starred chefs. A strict selection of top quality catering companies or, upon request, a Michelin-starred chef will provide food and beverages on wedding day. A selection of the best available wedding operators will be at your disposal, upon request. A vintage car (Convento ownership) to drive the couple, if needs be.

Outside, large and quiet areas secured between the ancient walls offer you some suggestive options: the breathtaking view of the Belvedere, the historic garden, the secret intimacy of the cloister. Inside, elegant halls can also provide an alternative in case of bad weather, with overall 120-150 seats. Again, a variety of options to choose from: il Refettorio (the old Canteen), la Sala dei Santi, the Cellar, and Salette del Ristoro.

A few steps away from Convento San Bartolomeo you will find the annexed Church of Saint Francis, simple and quiet, where both Catholic and Anglican services can be celebrated, as well as mixed religions marriages. The local City Hall has given the Convent the right to celebrate civil weddings (legally binding), which can be organized inside the Convent or in its grounds.

The Newlyweds’s Suite, large and elegant, will be the couple’s first love nest. And with its other rooms, Convento San Bartolomeo will allow you to offer your family and closest friends an exclusive lodging experience.

There is nothing left to do but to be pumpered and amazed by our services: the breakfast buffet with homemade cakes, the exclusive relaxation area with Jacuzzi, our evenings with wine and local delicacies tastings, the weekends dedicated to yoga and much more to make your stay special!
