Dear Pirates, we know how much you love a castle stay. While we've mainly covered castle stays in the UK, today we take you to Italy!

We've found a fantastic castle-turned-hotel in Umbria where you can stay like true kings and queens for a bargain price! Read on to learn more.

Details

Welcome to Castello Di Monterone, a medieval Italian castle that is located just outside Perugia, perched on a hill overlooking a green valley between Assisi and Perugia.

The original structure dates back to the 13th century but now houses a comfortable 4-star hotel, where you can enjoy the history of the castle.

The hotel itself has a rating of 5 out of 5 on Tripadvisor and is a Travellers' Choice Award winner. Of course, if the pictures of the hotel don't win you over, the reviews sure will!

The hotel features 18 rooms, each designed in a way that preserves the atmosphere of the castle. You will also find a cosy library and two lounges with large, roaring fireplaces to help keep you warm.

There is also a wellness center with sauna, turkish bath and swimming pool.

Our favourite part about this castle hotel might just be the price! You can stay overnight from just £70 night per person, which includes breakfast!

There are different dates available including during the week and on the weekend, as well as last minute and during the Christmas holidays. What are you waiting for?
