About Villa Catureglio

Nestled within 100 acres of lush woodland and olive groves, Villa Catureglio stands as a splendidly restored Tuscan haven, offering seclusion and charm in abundance.
 
For over 15 years, the team at Villa Catureglio has orchestrated exquisite wedding celebrations amidst this captivating landscape, boasting unparalleled expertise in event coordination. From catering and floral arrangements to music and Italian documentation, they ensure every detail is flawlessly executed. 
Ideal for weddings, the villa offers versatile spaces, allowing for various stages of the celebration. Guests can arrive the night before to indulge in a welcoming dinner. Saturdays host the wedding festivities, while Sundays provide a leisurely recovery with brunch and a poolside soiree. The villa also boasts a quaint Frescoed Chapel, perfect for blessings.
 
Dating back to the 13th century, the main house features four self-contained cottages, accommodating up to 41 guests across 20 meticulously furnished bedrooms, blending contemporary comfort with antique Italian elegance.

Behind The Brand

What was the initial spark for the property and how did it all begin?

Catureglio was bought, in 1987, by the English Hopkins family who, thanks to the passion and significant investments of Sir Michael Hopkins and his wife Patricia, both architects, have now restored the place to its former glory and beauty.

What spaces do you offer for a wedding or event?

Our property can accommodate up to 41 people for a minimum stay of 3 nights. During their stay, guests will feel at home and enjoy full privacy. For weddings, all areas of the property can be utilized according to the couple’s preferences. The villa courtyard is ideal for ceremonies and aperitivos, the back garden is perfect for dinner, and dances can be held in either the barn or the lower courtyard. We also have an onsite chapel available for blessings. Additionally, we offer various backup options without the need for pre-arrangement and at no extra cost.

How many guests can you cater for?

Up to 120.

What is it that makes your property magic?

What truly infuses our property with magic is its timeless essence, rooted deeply in the rich tapestry of Tuscan history and culture. Nestled amidst the rolling hills of Tuscany, our villa stands as a testament to the enduring beauty of the region, its walls whispering stories of centuries past.

What sets us apart is our unwavering commitment to preserving the authenticity and charm of this historic estate. The owners were adamant about maintaining the integrity of the property’s history, ensuring that every stone, every fresco, bears witness to the passage of time. Rather than erasing these marks, we embrace them wholeheartedly, honoring the legacy of the past.

We want to offer our guests an experience that is truly authentic—one that allows them to immerse themselves in the rich heritage of Tuscany. Here, amidst the timeless beauty of Tuscany, guests are invited to slow down, to savor each moment, and to rediscover the magic of simple pleasures. It’s not just a place to stay; it’s a journey through time, where the past and present converge in perfect harmony, creating memories that will last a lifetime.

What advice can you give couples when selecting their venue?

When it comes to choosing a wedding venue, our suggestion is to look for a place that resonates with the emotions you want to experience on your big day. Trust your instincts and choose a venue where you can envision creating cherished memories with your loved ones. Remember, the atmosphere and ambiance of the venue will play a significant role in shaping the overall feel of your wedding day, so prioritize finding a space that fills you with joy and excitement. Additionally, give trust to the locals, as they often hold valuable insights and recommendations that can enhance your wedding experience. Logistics are also important, and having an indoor plan allows you to enjoy the day without any worries.
