A hearth of history transformed into a boutique hotel, this 1,000 year-old castle situated on Italy's Umbria-Tuscany b o rd e r i s a ro m a n t i c 's dream destination. Count Antonio Bolza purchased the 3,700-acre estate in 1994; his son, architect Count Benedikt, has since converted it into Castello di Reschio, a sprawling getaway with 36 bedrooms and eight private homes. A labor of love, the hotel incorporates furnishings crafted by its own patron, via Count Benedikt's B.B. for Reschio collection of bespoke beds and lighting.
