Italy - Castellare di Tonda
Your base for the week is Castellare di Tonda in the heart of Tuscany. This 800 acre holiday village dates back to the Renaissance period, when it was owned by the Strozzi family of Florence. The current owners Stefano and Alessandra are passionate about their horses and riding and have invested extensively in the equestrian centre. There is a Wellness Centre which is open most days (except Monday and Tuesday). Each farmhouse has a swimming pool and there are tennis courts and many hiking trails through the surrounding hills.
From 2026 only breakfast is available at Castellare di Tonda and so you must have a rental car so that you can buy food for lunch and visit one of the many restaurants in the area for dinner.
The trail rides are designed to include a variety of landscapes. You ride past Chianti vineyards, through pristine forests, through medieval villages and past ancient castle ruins. There are three alternative riding itineraries.
This itinerary offers a more relaxed holiday and is ideal for families and friends, perhaps with mixed riding ability, who want to do more than just ride. The week includes 12 hours of riding which can be a mixture of lessons and trail rides. Subject to your riding ability and availability you may also be able to join a full day ride.
This seven night itinerary takes you on full and half day rides around the Tuscan countryside. The week includes approximately 20 hours of riding and is suitable for strong intermediate and experienced riders. There is one non-riding day mid-week when you may wish to visit Florence, Pisa or Siena. This trail does not run during the hottest part of the year in July and August.
This is the itinerary to chose if you are interested in learning more about and developing your skills in western riding and in particular reining. On a week long stay you have five lessons with the lead instructor Franco, as well as 5 trail rides. The Train & Trail week is suitable for strong intermediate and experienced riders.
The riding style is Western. The horses are trained to neck rein and are ridden with a loose contact. There is a herd of over fifty horses used for riding and breeding. The trail horses are a mix of breeds including native crossbreeds and Quarter horses.
The Chianti hills offer varied trails for all levels of rider. The soft Tufo sand provides excellent footing during the dry summer months when the ground elsewhere is hard. However, while the soft sand makes for excellent going in the dry, rain can make the tracks very slippery. This may affect the pace of the ride and in the case of persistent rain, it may not be possible to ride on any of the trails. If this happens, it should be possible for you to have western riding instruction in the arena. On average this happens once or twice during the season. If you are staying a full week, rain is very unlikely to affect all of your riding days.
The Heart of Tuscany itinerary is a relaxed riding itinerary and is less challenging that the Medieval Tuscany. It includes 12 hours of riding which can be a mixture of lessons and trail rides. Your riding hours can be in the morning or afternoon depending on the mix of people that week. Beginner riders will start off in the arena and join trail rides when the instructor believes them safe. Subject to your riding ability and availability you may be able to join a full day ride (but note that day rides are not available in July and August).
The Castellare Train & Trail itinerary requires riders to be confident and in control at walk, trot and canter. On five days you have a western riding/reining lesson in the morning and a two hour trail ride in the afternoon (or vice versa). This itinerary is for those specifically looking to learn or improve their Western riding techniques as well as practice the more refined reining techniques of sliding stop and spins. The Instructor speaks only Italian but is accompanied by a translator.
The Medieval Tuscany itinerary has the most riding and includes around 20 hours over the week. This is a mixture of half and full day rides including one non-riding day on a Wednesday. For this itinerary, riders need to be strong intermediate or experienced riders happy at all paces. The riding is not fast due to the terrain but it can be technical in places.
The riding on each itinerary includes steep mountain trails. You will be asked to stand in your stirrups on steep uphill sections and may be required to dismount for small sections of the trail to walk with the horses. The pace of the ride will depend on the heat so if it is very hot then the pace is likely to be a little slower. In the hot summer months, particularly late June, July and August, rides set off a little earlier in the morning.
Children aged seven years and over can have Western lessons in the arena. Children aged 12 years and over who are competent riders can join their family on trail rides within the estate. Children aged 14 years and over who are experienced riders may join their family on the longer rides outside of the estate.
Castellare di Tonda has a number of farmhouses converted into apartments. In total there are twelve restored farmhouses on the estate - each containing a number of self-catering apartments. Some apartments are on the ground floor and some are on the second floor. Riders normally stay in a farmhouse within walking distance of the stables, but this could be a walk of about 1 km. Each farmhouse of apartments has its own swimming pool which is usually open from mid-May to mid-October. There will be other non-riding guests and their families staying at the same time.
There are classic and superior apartments. The superior apartments have been more recently renovated and have air conditioning.
Couples normally have a one bedroomed superior apartment.
Two friends booking together normally have a two bedroomed classic apartment and so have a bedroom each with a shared bathroom (there is no single supplement for this option). It is possible to upgrade to a superior apartment.
Families can book a two or three bedroomed apartment.
Single travellers will have a one bedroomed apartment (a single supplement applies). If you are willing to share a two bedroom apartment (one bathroom) and a sharer is available, then there is no single supplement. The supplement is payable in advance and refunded when we find you a sharer.
Breakfast is served on site and included for all of the riding programs.
Lunch is not included on any of the riding programmes, except for the picnic lunches on the three all-day rides in the Medieval Tuscany itinerary.
On this holiday a rental car is needed to go off-site to shop for food and visit the restaurants for dinner. The closest restaurant is 1 km or there are a number within 10-15 minutes' drive.
Castellare di Tonda is open from the beginning of April through to the end October. All riding programmes start on Saturday.
The Heart of Tuscany and Castellare Train & Trail run throughout the season. Four night short breaks are not available in July or August.
The Medieval Tuscany does not run through July and August.

I had the most amazing week at Castellare di Tonda! From start to finish this holiday was wonderful. The team at Castellare are some of the kindest people I’ve had the pleasure to come across - non more so than Ailsa who made the week perfect! Ailsa is a fantastic riding companion and all round wonderful human - from the first moment I was put at ease and had so much fun riding out through the most beautiful countryside.
I had the great pleasure of spending the week riding Rossa who is a joy! Kind and safe but will respond to your leg and seat so well which makes canters the most fun! A beautiful soul she was lovely on the ground too and I had as much fun grooming her as riding her - fell a little bit in love and if I could have taken her home I would have done!
10/10 would recommend and I’ll definitely be back! Huge thank you to Ailsa and Rossa for helping me fall back in love with riding again - I’m indebted you both.
