    Like most fortresses, perched at the top of the town. The owner has done an excellent job at preserving the heritage of the mammoth building, whilst providing very comfortable accommodation. Breakfast was very good.

    The historic nature of the property with the modern amenities with the balance just right. Sorano and the fortress is a special place. The owners guided tour and wine tasting was fantastic.
