This glorious villa is ready to welcome you on an idyllic Italian lakeside break. Based just a short drive from the blue waters of Bolsena Lake, this 20th-century Italian farmhouse has been respectfully renovated to keep the original features that give this home its unique character – with exposed beams of chestnut wood, dramatic round vaults and beautiful terracotta floors. We love the contemporary, minimalist style that they’ve blended in with the retro feel, making the home feel absolutely charming.

We absolutely love the dining area, where you can feast on Italian suppers of soup and risotto all together. There are two large living areas, giving you plenty of room to stretch out and relax – one featuring a lovely fireplace where you can cosy up in colder months. There’s even a ping pong table where you can challenge your loved ones to a table tennis game or two. Outside, you’ll find huge, lush expanses of green parkland, as well as a private pool where you can take a refreshing dip.

This rustic Italian retreat looks out over a peaceful Umbrian valley, yet it’s only a short walk into the historic centre of Amelia for the local cheese shop, bars, bakeries and grocery shops. Covered outdoor lounges beneath rose-dappled pergolas and a summer kitchen embrace the bucolic life, while the modern swimming pool keeps things in the 21st century.  Inside, it feels like the old world in the open kitchen, living and dining room with a working stone hearth for chilly evenings. Each bedroom has a set of French windows opening up to the first-floor or ground-floor terraces and one bedroom has its own entrance from the garden.

Set on the stunning coast of Tuscany in Porto Ercole, this luxury villa is positioned between sixteenth-century Spanish Fortresses. From the get-go, you'll be blown away by the natural beauty that presents itself all around you. Prepare to be wowed by the perfectly manicured, blooming garden filled with flowers and Mediterranean charm, as well as the breathtaking sea that looks out over the Mediterranean Sea and the Southern Tuscan coast. 

The garden and terrace is probably where most of the action will take place, as here you'll find the cobalt pool with salted water, an array of sunbeds, and the sweet sound of the waves lapping into the shore in the distance. Enjoy alfresco meals from the elevated terrace area while taking in the magnificent vistas as the sun sets before you. We love the traditional Tuscan colour scheme featured on the sheltered terrace with terracotta tiles alongside pops of green through plants, window shutters and furniture cushions. Then, through the curved arch and into the house for more elegant design details and classic Tuscan style. 

When you can tear yourself away from the beauty of it all, take a walk in the heart of the historic old town along the tiny streets and small squares that overlook the sea. Just minutes away on foot from Porto Ercole, recognized as one of Italy's most beautiful historic villages – discover the many restaurants, shops, and bars that rest within easy reach. Why not rent a boat from the harbour and head out to explore the hidden beaches? Or play a round at Argentario Golf Resort & Spa, five minutes away from the villa.

This sun-drenched villa is perfect for a family getaway to the gorgeous region of Tuscany, with plenty of space for everyone to gather together under the sun or indoors. Cosy up in front of the TV on the comfy sofas with a lovely view of the verdant surroundings or enjoy a light bite at the circular dining table by the patio door. The outdoor barbeque provides guests with a bounty of delectable meals to enjoy in the great weather, be it lunch or dinner. Spend evenings relaxing on the patio while you play board games with the whole family as the sun sets behind the silhouettes of the trees or take a dip in the pool for a quick swim to finish off the day.

Unwinding has never been easier with the backdrop of the Tuscan landscape – you'll also find yourself surrounded by a charming olive grove that stretches over fifteen hectares. A twenty–three–minute drive takes you to the medieval village of Capalbio which has some gorgeous architecture sprinkled throughout. There's also a delightful ancient spa town called Saturnia that has some incredibly sumptuous hot springs.

There’s something truly unique about this home, lost in the midst of Umbria’s stunning countryside – first of all, it’s more than a home. The main building is a historic tower, which gives you the sense of staying in your own fairytale castle. With three additional buildings as part of the property, everyone in your party is sure to find their own private slice of tranquil paradise. 

Set in the middle of a lush, twelve-acre parkland and boasting sweeping views over the surrounding hills, this is one dream country escape – add to it the glistening swimming pool and the rooftop terrace with its unparalleled vistas and we think you’ll fall under the spell of this home just as we have. 

Inside, you’ll find all the rooms emanating exactly the kind of warmth and cosiness you’d expect from a rural Italian abode – from the warm fireplace in the main tower to all the snug bedrooms and charming nooks, there’s more than ample space for everyone to have a relaxing holiday. 
Organise delicious communal meals, with a choice of outdoor and indoor dining areas, and gather for evenings of drinks in the garden, just as the sun begins to set over the hills. 

When you’re ready to explore, you’ll find plenty of interesting sights to visit, including the nearby town of Spoleto, full of history and culture.

This villa sits in idyllic countryside, yet is less than an hour’s drive from the centre of Rome, so you can get the best of both worlds. You’ll find this place perched between two golf courses, and a short walk from the banks of serene Lake Monterosi and the town of the same name. Spend a day exploring your surroundings or head to the Colosseum and ancient ruins of central Rome, a fifty-minute drive away.

The home itself is split across two separate villas, sharing a grand social space outdoors. Two swimming pools are connected by an infinity edge and beg for a dip on a hot day. Dine poolside under the shade of a parasol, or set up beneath the shaded veranda for a barbecue feast. Come sundown, the gazebo by the pool shades comfy sofas and chairs for an aperitivo. Across the private gardens, azaleas and roses bloom and the whole place is surrounded by olive groves.

Heading inside, honey-yellow walls are livened up with modern artworks and the old timber of the building is on display. Brick archways connect lounges with games rooms and there’s a full-size snooker table for evenings in. Bibliophiles will love the floor-to-ceiling bookcases, stuffed with paperbacks and gilded classics – the perfect accompaniment to a crackling fire in the main lounge. 

The Last Word

In the heart of Lazio, this elegant villa offers a luxurious retreat. There are wonderful views to enjoy from the balcony, and there’s a sparkling private pool in the large garden. Inside, character features blend with modern furnishings, and there are more vistas to enjoy from some of the bedrooms. At full capacity, one guest will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the main bedroom and another two people on a sofa bed in bedroom three. This home is perfectly located for exploring Lazio's beautiful countryside and towns. Tarquinia, known for its ancient sites and lively markets, is a short drive away. The sandy beaches of the Tyrrhenian coast are also within easy reach – this villa’s location has something for everyone.

Arriving at this Umbrian villa, you wouldn’t think it was a new build – it’s got all the character and charm of an old, Italian farmhouse with brick-lined, arched windows and a terracotta roof. It’s built with local stone and embraces organic architecture. Blending in with its bucolic surroundings, it looks out over the Oasi di Alviano nature reserve – home to protected Umbrian flora and fauna. It’s a short drive to Terni to explore ancient ruins and local cuisine in family-run restaurants and a traditional medieval hilltop town awaits at Todi nearby.

The first thing that catches the eye is the inviting, Roman-style swimming pool that looks out over the fauna-filled valley and patchwork fields to hazy hills in the distance. A loggia-style dining area houses a table for the group and a barbecue grill, all with that stunning view before you. Steal away to the olive grove and curl up in a hammock with a holiday read.

Inside, antique and vintage pieces throughout add to the old farmhouse feel of the home, alongside wooden ceilings and terracotta tiled floors. A huge double-sided fireplace sits between the dining and living room for cosy evenings in. The view from the arched window in here is simply sublime – framed like a picture on the exposed stone wall. Up on a mezzanine level, you’ll find a secluded little reading nook to hide away in.  

New Old World

Single-Level Home

Balcony / Patio

Perched on its own hilltop and just twenty minutes from Saturnia's famous thermal springs, this traditional farmhouse is the place for you if you're really trying to get away from it all. With nothing to bother you apart from the sounds of the local wildlife and the twinkling of the stars at night, it's a rural retreat for nature lovers, artists and musicians. Here the order of the day is country walks, reading in the shade, whipping up delicious meals each evening and just generally enjoying the good life. There's no need to rush anything here.

But if, after breakfast on the terrace, those views across the iconic hills have motivated you to explore, that's easily done too. Head to the surrounding villages to see their Etruscan and Roman ruins, explore Montemerano – a twenty-five-minute drive away – and don't miss the nearby thermal springs. A little isolated for some, it's a short drive to pick up supplies or eat out – but for others, this is the magic of this place.

With awe-inspiring views across the Umbrian valley, this home takes you on a journey to the green heart of Italy. 

Surrounded by giant pine trees as well as a working olive grove, every detail of this setting is steeped in the beauty of Italian living. And with eleven acres of land to explore, there’s everything you could need for an idyllic retreat. 

Stepping inside, you’ll find two floors dedicated to bringing warmth and comfort to your stay. From the elegant styling to the antique furnishings and traditional features, this is the kind of space that feels instantly welcoming. Open the patio doors and you’ll discover the transformative power of this home. From sunrise to sunset, the serene terrace invites you to relax, dine and simply savour the majestic views. 

Nestled within the olive trees, the swimming pool provides a refreshing sanctuary – a quiet space to feel rejuvenated and inspired by the surroundings. And whether you’re lounging here or enjoying golden-hour drinks and al fresco dining on the balcony, this home makes it easy to enjoy the magic of outdoor living. 

Follow the views and you’ll find an abundance of opportunities for hiking, sight-seeing and sampling the delicious local cuisine and renowned Umbrian wine. The ancient hill town of Narni and the charming city of Orvieto are less than a thirty-minute drive away. 

The Lavender Sky     

A haven of calm, this beautiful villa seamlessly blends traditional Tuscan charm with modern comforts. The renovated retreat sits in Tuscan Maremma, offering far-reaching rural views from the well-tended garden. Sit amidst cypresses, eucalyptus, and olive trees to soak up the sun, or dine alfresco in the shade of the bamboo pergola – pick fresh veg in the organic garden. The outside space, with a private pool, is delightful, but the villa is equally special. Admire contemporary furnishings alongside exposed chestnut beams and handcrafted travertine floors in this bright, welcoming home. 

Tuscan Nightingale

This former farmhouse boasts panoramic views, a private swimming pool, and plenty of character. Everyone will love milling about the garden. Stretch out on a poolside lounger after a dip, or gather under the veranda for a drink as the sun goes down. We're big fans of the traditional details inside – think chestnut ceiling beams, terracotta floors, and antique Sicilian majolica pottery. For those keen on privacy, the fifth bedroom is situated in an adjacent annexe with its own kitchenette. Location-wise, the small commune of Attigliano is a five-minute drive away, while Orvieto, Perugia, and Rome are all great day trip options.

New Perspective

This compact home is nestled in the Italian countryside, with rolling hills as far as the eye can see. One of four apartments within a traditional stone house and cottage, the building is steeped in history – it was once a Benedictine Monastery and still has a consecrated 13th-century chapel. While the apartment is small, you’ll have plenty of outdoor space to enjoy here, including a private patio for alfresco dining and a shared pool surrounded by loungers. And when you’re ready to explore the surrounding area, the lakeside town of Bolsena, and the hilltop towns of Orvieto and Montefiascone, are all within a thirty-minute drive.

Olive & Vine

Paid Parking On Street

Formerly a convent of Saint Francis of Assisi, this extraordinary home is a paragon of Italian Renaissance architecture, and has been lovingly renovated to become a magical retreat for families and friends. The convent is part of a 16th century estate designed by Antonio da San Gallo, the most influential architect of his time. It’s set atop a wooded ravine on 26 acres of magnificent Tuscan countryside, with sprawling views of distant vineyards and sheep grazing in the meadow below. 

Step inside the house and you’ll be awestruck by the opulent interiors. There are multiple living areas, the most grand being the former winemaking room, with its original giant chestnut barrels, a limestone wine cellar below, and a long banquet table that seats twenty. The kitchen is fully kitted out for cooking up Italian feasts, or if you prefer, a private chef is available to hire. There are plenty of cosy sitting rooms to relax in – perhaps you’ll want to curl up with a book in the library, or play cards on the velvet sofas while a fire crackles in the hearth. The seven bedrooms are bursting with character. From crimson drapery on a four poster bed, to ancient pottery lining the fireplace, each one has a unique charm. The bathrooms are equally majestic – we love the freestanding pewter bath tub, and the deep azure ceiling, so you can bathe like nobility. 

On summer days, plunge into the 18 metre saltwater infinity pool overlooking the Tuscan hills, before relaxing on a deck chair beneath the fragrant jasmine pergola. Outside the house there’s an alcove with flowering archways, which is the perfect place for alfresco dining. On warm evenings, wander through the ancient fig and lavender garden, or follow one of the winding Etruscan paths near the house. The Mediaeval town of Pitigliano is a ten-minute walk away, where you’ll find family run Italian restaurants, authentic gelaterias, and breathtaking Etruscan architecture. Welcome to a home like no other.

Convento San Francesco

It’s all about peace and seclusion at this Umbrian villa. On all sides, you’ve got a patchwork of rolling fields and acres of olive groves. Should you wish to discover a bit of Umbria on a day trip, the beautiful city of Orvieto is a short drive away – a shamble of ancient, ochre buildings sitting on a hilltop. However, days here can easily be spent without leaving the grounds.

The saline swimming pool is an inviting shade of turquoise, sitting against the Umbrian hills and surrounded by greenery. Beneath ancient olive and oak trees, you’ll find wooden tables for rustic lunches outdoors – perhaps cooked in the little stone building that’s been converted into a barbecue shed with a wood-fired oven. 

Beyond this villa's stone and wood-shuttered facade, you’ll find an ode to Umbrian tradition. An arched fireplace in the main living room harks back to days gone by while the worn terracotta bricks underfoot keep things cool. Wrought iron candelabra and wooden ceilings give a medieval feel to the huge sitting room in the annexe and there’s a small, book-lined living room for a quiet moment alone. Double wooden doors open up from the kitchen to the patio, so the shuttling of salads and sauces to the barbecue area is a breeze. In the bedrooms, dark wood and wrought-iron furniture keep the traditional feel going.  

The Hazelnut Harvest

Nestled in the heart of the peaceful Maremma countryside, this charming home has tranquillity running through its core. With contemporary interiors, it’s made up of the main villa, sleeping eight, and a separate annexe that gives one guest some extra privacy. But for us, the star of the show is the outdoor space. Including the family vineyard, there’s an impressive amount of room to spread out here and soak up the Tuscan sun. With views of the hills surrounding you, it’s just the spot to relax, and the private pool and sun-drenched terraces are just the place to do so.

It’s all about the good life at this Italian villa. We’re not just talking la dolce vita, but the full, sustainable package. It’s on an enchanting eco lavender farm, so the fields around you are fragrant as perfume and the villa has its own orto (vegetable garden) which you’re welcome to harvest. Perhaps cook fresh-veg-topped pizzas in the antique pizza oven outdoors, and enjoy at one of two terraces, overlooking the rolling countryside. For days at home, there’s a sparkling swimming pool to cool off in, a petanque court and ping pong too. 

We’re impressed by this villa’s eco-credentials, supplied by renewable energy and with natural aromatherapy oils on offer from the lavender farm. Inside, it’s a calming medley of Japanese zen and Scandi-chic touches. The living room is set around a big fireplace and raw-wood tables and wicker lampshades are a nod to your natural surroundings. The kitchen could be the envy of any professional chef, with a huge, range-style cooker perfect for the fresh produce on your doorstep.

Getting out and exploring, you’ve got Italian countryside all around you and the village of Marsiliana is less than ten minutes drive away for supermarkets and pizzerias. Twenty minutes away you are spoiled for choice – from the charming medieval villages of Capalbio and Pitigliano to the glamorous beaches, bars and restaurants of the Silver Coast.

The Lavender Harvest

Built in the 19th century, this stunning Italian country home sits in the WWF Oasis of Pian Sant'Angelo, adorned with greenery, an abundance of natural wildlife, and endless tranquillity. 

Outside, the scent of chestnuts, hazelnuts and olive trees fragrance the air with blissful aroma, while vast grassy lawns colour the landscape and gardens green in every direction you look. Serve up authentic Italian meals in the romantic setting of the alfresco dining area – lunch times out here are particualrly special. Then, spend your days whiling away amid the surrounding mosaic of nature upon relaxing by the private pool. 

Inside, the home embodies the quintessential Italian country home dressed with exposed chestnut-wooden beams, stone walls, terracotta flooring, furnishings, and upholstery in warm colours. You'll find the annexe just twenty metres from the main house, boasting its own living room, kitchenette and bedroom-bathroom suite – the ideal set-up for grandparents joining you on a family getaway or those travelling with a nanny. 

Located in an area of 254 hectares, you'll be within direct access to nature walks, trails, cycling and horseback riding here – and with every possibility of bumping into the local wildlife, including wild boars, foxes, porcupines, badgers and ducks, to name a few. Meanwhile, by car, you'll also be well-positioned to go on excursions and visit some of the most beautiful places in northern Lazio (a land of volcanic lakes and centuries-old woods). Finally, for a slice of civilisation, head out to the local town of Corchiano, just a few kilometres away, to discover its independent shops and restaurants. 



Mosaic of Nature 

Situated on an estate dedicated to organic farming, this villa is surrounded by the Umbrian countryside. In the summer, take advantage of the private pool. Come dinnertime, tuck into an alfresco meal on the terrace, made using homegrown produce straight from the farm. The interior design blends the old with the new. It's a little dated, but it doesn't lack charm – or, for that matter, space, thanks to a collection of cosy en-suite bedrooms. When you're ready to venture out, the cliff-top city of Orvieto is a short drive away. Your host also provides complimentary bikes for you to explore the area.

Harvest Hideaway

We think this unique home has the wow factor in spades, offering you a taste of traditional Italian style combined with elegant accents and mod-cons – not to mention its own distinctive character which really sets it apart. Clearly, we're not alone in our thinking, as the tower was recently used for the filming of the James Bond film 'Quantum of Solace' — well, if it's good enough for Mr Bond, it's certainly enough to get us shaken and stirred. 

Boasting an unforgettable location perched atop a dramatically descending cliff that overlooks the Maremma, this one-time watch tower has been tastefully restored in such a way that is sensitive and appreciative of its past, creating an atmosphere that feels both special and timeless. You need only to set foot on its beautiful terraces to feel the true magic of this place. 

Gaze out over the glittering waters, admiring the islands of Argentario, Giglio & Montecristo or take the short stroll down the semi-private walkway that leads directly to the shoreline and a rock platform beach shared with just one other villa. We loved nothing more than ambling along the path toward the clear waters before finding a comfortable spot to sit with a packed lunch of Italian meats and cheeses – the perfect accompaniment to the idyllic setting.

From alfresco dining to coastal walks and irresistible gastronomical experiences in the picturesque towns and villages that dot the landscape, this home is perfect for those in search of the real 'dolce vita'.  

Atop a Tuscan Tower

Not far from Porto Ercole, this home makes the most of its coastal scenery. You'll be just 900 metres from the beach, and the views are downright blissful – they stretch across the sea to the island of Formiche di Burano. Everyone will appreciate the swimming pool, and the terrace makes the perfect spot for a nightcap as the sun goes down. Each bedroom has its own entrance, and the one on the lower ground floor is ideal for those who don't mind steps. When you're ready to explore, you'll find the small village of Ansedonia nearby, as well as Orbetello, which is a ten-minute drive away.

Nestled within a historic building in the centre of Rome, this apartment will tick a lot of boxes if you’re in the city for sightseeing. With the Piazza Navona and the Pantheon within walking distance, you can soak up the Eternal City’s beauty with ease. The apartment itself is contemporary and a comfortable place to stay, though just bear in mind there’s no oven here. That said, with a range of eateries on your doorstep offering authentic Italian cuisine, dining out is a must.  

Roman Blush

Only forty-five minutes away from the ancient city of Rome, this tranquil, wild location feels like a million miles away. This home is secluded, in beautiful lush countryside and surrounded by olive, persimmon and pomegranate trees. You can soak in the picture-perfect views from the private swimming pool, the dining room, or even from the bedroom. The flexible sleeping options (double rooms to twin rooms, plus optional sofa beds in the shared open space) make it a great home for family holidays. It’s also the perfect place to explore the Umbrian and Tuscan countryside with olive groves, vineyards and medieval castles waiting to be discovered. 

Sample delectable local delicacies from the restaurants and tavernas of nearby villages, as well as some of the best wine the region has to offer, and pick up cute little souvenirs to take home as a memento of a truly unforgettable holiday. Turano Lake is a scenic twenty-minute drive from home and offers guests the chance really reconnect with nature with outdoor activities such as fishing, canoeing and hiking. And of course, the Eternal City of Rome can be reached in a forty-five-minute drive from the villa, and promises days full of sightseeing, sumptuous dining, and shopping extravaganzas.

Turn off the small orchard-lined road down a dusty track and lay your eyes on this exquisite house that will transport you back in time. The owners have lovingly restored this farmhouse to its former glory, taking great care to create a spectacular home from home that's set to exceed all your expectations.

First impressions count, and they don't get much better than this. But what might not be immediately apparent on arrival is how the villa's old-world charm will slowly unveil itself to you throughout your stay here. From the fact that there's always a shaded spot by the pool to escape the heat, to the way the breeze picks up in the afternoon just as you're questioning whether you might have to retreat inside and how the sun settles on the seating area by the house each evening – these factors combine to create a stay that's sure to live long in the memory.

Inside, you'll find all the mod cons you'd expect sitting beneath elegant vaulted ceilings and surrounded by antique furniture. The spacious rooms provide plenty of space to socialise, as well as secluded spots to claim as your own when you want to lose yourself in the pages of a good book. The lush grounds don't disappoint either. Immaculately tended between guest visits, they're filled with centuries-old oaks, mature pine trees and luxuriant lawns. There's also a fenced-off pool, ideal for relaxing days by the pool.

While you might be off the beaten track, the villa is only sixty-five kilometres from Rome, so you can spend the morning enjoying your rural idyll before heading into the city for lunch and a chance to explore the capital's headline-grabbing sights.

Querce d’Orlando

Sauna

A marigold marvel against the sapphire sky and green lawn that surrounds it, this home in Italy’s Lazio region looks portrait-perfect in all its colourful glory. Inside, arched stained glass doorways combine with an effusion of art, artisanal ceramics, exposed beam ceilings and terracotta tiles to create a kaleidoscope of colours and textures that dazzle as the sunlight pours through the chestnut wood windows and French doors on each side. Wake up in the comfortable bedrooms, enjoy your morning coffee on the terrace or catch up on some work – if you must – in the elegant, book-lined office. Spend the afternoon taking cool dips in the pool, soaking up the sun in the hammock and letting your competitive side out in a game or two of ping pong. With a playhouse and slide in the large garden too, there’s more than enough to keep all ages entertained. After a day of lounging in your own private oasis or driving ten minutes to Civita Castellana, known for its beautiful ceramics, come back home for drinks by the flower-filled stone fountain. Then fire up the wood-burning oven and the brick-built barbecue for a memorable alfresco dinner. 

Living In Colour

If you long to spend your holiday gazing out onto undisturbed views of the Tuscan countryside, this might be the home for you. This beautiful traditional villa looks out over Tuscan hills and is only a four-minute drive from the medieval town of Scansano. Here you have peace and quiet with easy access to gelaterias and restaurants – perfetto. 

The stone villa sits on acres of lush land, with far-reaching views and the outside space from which to enjoy them. In the morning, get out of bed and head straight outside to dive into the pool. Dry off in the sun before taking a seat on the terrace – that’s where we’d be tucking into a breakfast of local bread and fruit. The terrace is covered, making it the perfect place to dine out of the sun. 

This home merges the outside and inside spaces – you’ll find huge windows in the living room that look out onto the gardens and pool, creating an open feel and giving the space plenty of light. This also means that you can admire the countryside views whether you’re swimming in the pool or playing cards inside. 

The countryside setting means it’s easy to relax here, far away from the hustle and bustle of busy towns. To take your relaxation to the next level, drive thirty-three minutes to Cascate del Mulino. This thermal spa is a real hidden treasure. On your way back, call in at Vignaioli del Morellino di Scansano for a wine tour. This vineyard is just five minutes from the villa and produces the best-loved wine in the region. Pick up a bottle or two to sip on the terrace as the sun sets – it’s the perfect way to end the day. 


Under Tuscan Skies

This beautiful home is located in Nepi, just thirty minutes from Rome. It’s tucked away in the countryside but you can easily see the sights of the city and dine in some of Italy’s best restaurants – you get the best of both worlds here. We love the private pool and the garden, and the veranda is the perfect spot for alfresco dining. The home is located on an organic family farm – this is a rustic base that’s full of charm.
