About this property

Enchanting view from the walls of Leonardo da Vinci's castle.

I wanted to restore this corner of paradise, to give myself the joy of the green as far as the eye can see, peeking out of the windows, getting up in the morning, or having lunch in the garden inserted in the walls of the castle designed by Leonardo da Vinci.
A fortress that belonged to the Venetians, then Austiracians and finally Italy, in a lively and picturesque town that expresses the charm of Mitelleuropa, the colors of the nearby Adriatic, the flavors and aromas of the Collio, nearby Slovenia and the strength of the Friulian peaks .
Paid parking spaces available next to the house (free weekend), in the Parco della Rotonda (50 meters away) there are multiple free parking spaces in the shade.
Rental cars, scooters or e-bikes are available directly in the structure - by reservation.
Castello Di Spessa Golf & Country Club, 8 km away.
AIRPLANE: Trieste Airport (TRS) DISTANCE 9 km.
I can organize shuttle service from Trieste airport (TRS) at competitive prices.
TRAIN: Train station connections for Trieste-Venice distance 3 km.
Slovenian border and Nova Goriza Casino (SLO) distance 14 km.
If golf is your passion, come and practice it in the green hills of the Collio Goriziano. The 18-hole course of the Castello di Spessa Golf & Country Club immersed in gentle ups and downs dotted with vineyards and olive trees, surrounded by ponds and fountains, give the course an ancient charm, in the same castle that was Casanova's home.

I'm thrilled you had such a perfect holiday, Michaell! Thank you for your enthusiastic review and for appreciating BattistiCastel "relaxing stay in the Castel walls." I'm delighted you found the apartment gorgeous and well-situated, and that my tips helped you discover the landscape. You're absolutely right – Friuli is a region with so much to offer for those patient enough to uncover its proudly kept, hidden gems. It sounds like you truly embraced the spirit of exploration! It has been a pleasure to know you! Thanks, Lorenzo

Thank you Henning, for your cordiality, and your passion for Friuli❤️. My commitment is to help discover this region which is a small jewel between the hills and the sea, the local trattorias in the shade of the bell towers. You will always be welcome.

altijd ruimte voor verbetering

Prachtig verblijf, super schoon, mooi uitzicht. Toch wel een paar puntjes die in de beschrijving mochten staan zoals appartement op bovenste verdieping (2 hoog) zonder lift. Toilet bevond zich op de badkamer nog een verdieping hoger. Het was erg warm op het moment dat wij er waren, airco had zeker geen overbodige luxe geweest. Verde wel een super vakantie gehad, veel gezien zoals Triest, Muggia, Grado, Tolmin, Udine, enz. Lorenzo is een voortreffelijke gastheer, die bijna dagelijks vroeg hoe ons verblijf was en ons telkens tips gaf.

Dear Yvonne, Thank you for your wonderful review! I'm delighted you had a super holiday exploring the beauty that Friuli can offer. As someone who deeply loves this region between the Friuli hills and sea, it brings me great joy to share its treasures with guests. It was particularly pleasurable giving you suggestions because I could see how much you love discovering and experimenting! Regarding the heat, those 38-39°C temperatures were truly exceptional for Gradisca d'Isonzo - we've never experienced such extreme conditions here! It was an extraordinary weather event that surprised everyone. Thank you for being such lovely guests. Warm regards, Lorenzo

Der Aufenthalt war schön, bis der Vermieter, der eigentlich am Anfang sehr nett war, nach unserer Abreise eine unbewiesene Schadensforderung stellte , die wir nicht akzeptierten und uns einfach 128€ für einen 1 Jahr alten Gartentisch abbucht, den wir angeblich zerkratzt hätten. Fewo sagt dazu nichts oder meldet sich aufgrund unserer Widerrede. Nie wieder Fewo. uns einfach

Dear Axel, thank you for your opinion. At BattistiCastel everyone is welcomed and accompanied in the discovery of this splendid corner of Friuli, everything is aimed at making your stay pleasant, relaxing, simply unique, I personally follow every need during your stay, recommending what is most beautiful or had the opportunity to experience between the green hills and the blue of the sea. Damage to this corner of paradise can happen; not warning hoping that everything goes unnoticed seems to me a disrespectful practice. It is the first episode that I have had to deal with, and I did it with transparency and honesty. Thank you for your visit and best wishes for your future travels.

Thank you for your visit Christoph & Eva, I love accompanying those who come to Friuli not only for the green hills, the rivers that flow into the blue Adriatic Sea, but also to sit at the table and discover the Friulian traditions, the magnificent wines and how much passion there is in maintaining traditions, in a proud and welcoming land. Happy future travels! Lorenzo
