Novanta 90 is a restored hamlet in the Gello valley near Bibbiena, in the Casentino hills of Tuscany. A wedding takes over the whole village, with ceremonies in the orchard or on the ruin steps and room for up to 150 guests.

The story

Your own Tuscan village in the Gello valley

Novanta 90 began as a pop-up hotel run for 90 days by three Dutch friends in Borgo di Gello, a village of about fifteen buildings that people had left. Today it covers over 300 hectares of fields, rivers and forest at the edge of the Casentino Natural Park, and it is rented to wedding parties as a whole village.

Up to 150 guests can celebrate here and up to 120 can stay on site, for anything from a few days to a week. Vows can be said in the orchard, at the top of the steps of the largest ruin, or in the outdoor amphitheatre. Cocktails are served by the pool, dinner is at long tables outside at sunset, and the party can run until 2 am, with no neighbours to disturb. For a bigger group you can rent two villages.
