Just over an hour away by train from lively Bologna, Brisighella is a charming medieval village straight out of a storybook. With its hilltop clock tower, narrow alleyways and ancient walkway, it's the definition of picturesque. And this villa on the outskirts of town is the perfect place to take it all in. Consisting of the main house and a small annexe, everything here feels bright and welcoming. There's a touch of that rustic warmth you'd expect from a country home in the knotted beams and stone floor, but otherwise, the design is all old-world elegance – imagine wingback chairs, canopy beds and glittering chandeliers. Outside, the panoramic views of the Tuscan Apennines take centre stage. Whether you're sipping wine under the pergola, taking a dip in the pool or enjoying home-cooked meals in the fresh air, you'll have a front-row seat to spectacular sunsets and sweeping night skies. Trust us – you'll never want to leave.

The villa itself boasts spacious and stylish interiors spread over two floors (this may not suit those with limited mobility), complete with four charming bedrooms, each with an en-suite bathroom. Outdoors, you can relax in the garden with a glass of Sangiovese or indulge in the hot tub.

Found within a luxurious estate, this opulent villa has access to it all – you'll find a wellness spa, gym, tennis and basketball court and driving range at your disposal. And though those are shared, the private pool with a view of the rolling green landscape is all yours, and so is the vine-covered pergola, perfect for chef-prepared alfresco meals. Food lovers will find Bologna especially seductive, considering the many famous restaurants that sit amongst historic cathedrals, museums, and bars, but Modena can also be reached by car and motorsport enthusiasts can Imola Autodrome minutes away.

Lying within the verdant hillsides just outside of Bologna, this stone and plaster villa might look rustic on the outside but don't be deceived – this is a home for those that appreciate the finer things in life.

You only have to look at the large and colourful garden to see what we mean. Sitting in the middle is a swimming pool sure to be appreciated on hot summer afternoons, neighboured by loungers and not just one, but two hot tubs. Come dinner time, the alfresco table under the pergola is a wonderful spot for feasting while the sun goes down overhead.

The interior design lies on the contemporary side of things, with a soothingly bright colour palette, a chic taste in furnishings and a minimalist kitchen heavy on sleek surfaces. We have especially kind words for the bedroom suites, which have a refined elegance more typically seen in high-end hotels.

But wait, there's more. The villa sits within a large estate which has a wealth of communal amenities that guests can take advantage of, ranging from three restaurants and seven outdoor pools to opportunities for wine tasting in the cellar. The distinctive architecture and cultural institutions of Bologna are only 22km away, too.

What Fine Taste

Bicycles

Although this home is situated on an estate, just a ten-minute walk from communal amenities, including restaurants, bars and a spa, guests staying here have their own garden and infinity swimming pool with a hot tub. Daily housekeeping means you won’t have to lift a finger and if you’d like a professional to take care of mealtimes, a private chef service can be arranged. Should you fancy a change of scenery, Bologna is reached in around twenty minutes by car, while Modena is reached in about an hour.

It may be less than a thirty-minute drive from the spectacular Renaissance city of Florence, but this home feels like another world. Located up in the hills, you'll discover a spectacular villa – complete with a clock tower – just outside the small village of Cellai, where time seems to stand still. 

Pad across terracotta-tiled floors, with wood beam ceilings above, and discover rooms filled with character and charm, where period features and modern touches sit effortlessly alongside one another. Nowhere is this better displayed than in the contemporary kitchen and adjoining dining room with its antique stove. Each of the four bedrooms blends rustic charm with supreme comfort, while the bathrooms are fitted out with beautiful tiles and gleaming marble for a touch of luxury.

Step outside and you'll discover a lush landscape of terraced gardens, an inviting pool and breathtaking views over the Tuscan terrain. Your hosts recommend making the trip to Forno La Chiocciola, where you can stock up on Florentine speciality flatbread, schiaccata, each morning. Afterwards, place yourself poolside and settle in for a day of sunbathing, interrupted only by refreshing dips in the water and trips to the kitchen to get some more of that delicious bread. 

The Breadbasket

Ping Pong Table

Attractive and welcoming, this home was once a farmhouse. It’s been lovingly renovated, retaining the charm of the past while adding home comforts. Ideal for families, this home boasts a volleyball court, football pitch and ping pong table, along with a swimming pool. There’s a wood-fired oven outside, and a lovely outdoor dining set up. We recommend hiring a car so you can drive to nearby Ravenna and Forli, and admire the countryside on the way. 


The Renaissance Grand Tour

Whether you're after a peaceful holiday with friends or a spacious spot for a family gathering, this restored farmhouse is an excellent choice. It's situated on a private country estate in the charming village of Lamporecchio, Tuscany, and has well-tended secret gardens, as well as olive groves to explore. This breathtaking property is spread over two floors and benefits from a private patio and communal pool area – the latter of which is shared with four neighbouring properties. We love the master suite with its fireplace – a welcome feature during the cooler months. We suggest a car for ease –  there are restaurants less than 2km away and the pretty town of Montecatini is 15km from the home.

An open space in a sixteenth-century building, in the hilly outskirts of Florence that, at time at times, has been both a stables and a nightclub, Thermae is one of the most spectacular places we’ve seen in Italy. Its restoration has been a labour of love for the host, Giovanni, and the way that he’s incorporated technology into the original structure is simply impressive. There’s too much to describe here, but know that everything's been taken care of. And if we did have to choose one thing that stood out, it might have to be the pool, hidden away in the vaults, and only accessible through a trapdoor.

Elegant and unique, this home makes for an excellent base in Tuscany. It’s in the village of Impruneta on the outskirts of Florence, surrounded by countryside, olive groves and vineyards – it also borders the Chianti Classico region. The centre of Florence is only 13 kilometres away, making day trips a breeze. The decor is traditional, with antiques at every turn, so it may not suit everyone. But for a break to Italy that feels a little like stepping back in time, it’s a great choice. 

The Falling Stones

Head into the Tuscan hills just outside the charming village of Cellai and keep an eye out for an imposing villa with its own bell tower. Almost unbelievably, this stunning property will be your home from home for however long you decide to stay.

Step inside your apartment, and you'll discover a typically Tuscan scene, with tiled terracotta floors, exposed wooden ceilings and frescoes painted directly on the walls. Four individually decorated bedrooms, each as enchanting as the last, will serve as your soothing sanctuaries for you to unwind at the end of each day. The spacious interior includes not one but two seating areas, so you can always claim a secluded spot as your own for the afternoon if you want to get lost in the pages of a good book. Meanwhile, the kitchen and dining area are perfect for sociable meals with family and friends in true Italian style. 

Outside in the shared garden, you'll find yourself surrounded by pristine landscaped gardens with a vine-covered pergola, terraced seating and perhaps most importantly, a pool. 

Start each day by visiting Forno La Chiocciola, where you can stock up on fresh bread, including Florentine speciality flatbread, schiaccata. Then, when you're not laying out on poolside loungers and sipping wine in the sun, the stunning Renaissance city of Florence is less than half an hour away. Why not get to know the artistic, architectural and cultural history of Tuscany, spending an afternoon or three wandering its streets and taking it all in.

This pretty apartment sits in the estate of an 18th-century farmhouse, which has been lovingly restored into several attractive holiday homes. We love the lush communal gardens and the setting amid Tuscany’s scenic rolling countryside – cyclists will be particularly happy here, where bikes and e-bikes can be rented. The galleries and museums of Florence are only a thirty-minute drive away, and charming Scarperia is within easy reach too. The apartment is comfortable and cosy, equipped with everything you might need for a relaxing break in Italy.

This breathtaking villa is one of the oldest in the hamlet of Castelfranco Piandiscò, and it wears its history with pride. The traditional stone exterior gives way to a charmingly traditional living space – you'll be enchanted by the rustic wooden beams, collection of antique furniture and terracotta tiles. The ancient Valdarno fireplace is a beautiful centrepiece, and you'll find a second feature fireplace in the kitchen. The four bedrooms are wonderfully peaceful, and one even has access to the balcony, where you can sip your morning espresso in the fresh air. In, fact, you're spoilt for choice when it comes to outdoor space – from the beautiful garden, full of greenery and flowers, to the smart patio, you can't help but adopt an alfresco lifestyle here. Pick a book or magazine from the extensive home library, and bask in the Italian sunshine before taking a refreshing dip in the infinity pool. Adventurers can explore the stunning scenery surrounding the commune, wandering through olive groves and beech woods in true tranquility. And, if you fancy a day in the city, both Arezzo and Florence are only thirty kilometres away – their world-famous cultural relics have to be seen to be believed.

This stunning villa is hidden away in the secluded countryside of Tuscany, just thirty minutes from Florence. The Tuscan farmhouse boasts a private heated swimming pool, 4 acres of gardens, and striking views of the Schifanoia Valley. Just beyond the gardens, which are filled with centuries-old oaks, chestnut trees, and Mediterranean flowers, you’ll be able to admire the estate’s sunflowers. The idyllic setting makes this home perfect for relaxing holidays. There's even friendly staff on hand to ensure that your stay goes without a hitch, including daily chef's breakfast, daily housekeeping, on-site concierge, and linen changes twice a week.

Canopy of Elegance

For a relaxing stay in the pretty rolling countryside of Tuscany, you can’t do better than this charming apartment. It’s on the estate of a restored 18th-century farmhouse, sharing lush gardens and a heated plunge pool. The apartment boasts views of the surrounding scenery from large windows, and blends rustic charm with modern comfort – it’s a dreamy home-from-home. Florence is only thirty minutes away by car, and you’ll be even closer to the charming town of Scarperia. 

Terracotta & Sage

Just a stone's throw away from Leonardo da Vinci’s birthplace, you’ll find this villa, surrounded by a small garden and beautiful views of the Tuscan countryside. There’s a shaded terrace, private pool and sundeck here to enjoy the Italian sun. Inside, there are plenty of character features and a mix of antique and modern furnishings, as well as more vistas from the bedroom windows over the landscape. When you feel like exploring, the Casa Natale di Leonardo museum is within walking distance, while the medieval town of Vinci is a short drive away.

Leonardo's Place

This charming villa, nestled among the olive trees in Tuscany, is ideal for those looking for fuss-free comfort. Inside the home, you'll find an upside-down layout, while outside, there are two balconies overlooking the square and Pratomagno mountain, as well as a private garden to stroll around. There’s also a large, shared infinity swimming pool and games room with a billiards table. If you don't fancy cooking, guests have access to an on-site restaurant for meals, and the concierge can help organise tours, so it’s easy to explore cities such as Florence nearby.

Casa San Giorgio

This enchanting villa is situated in the understated and under-appreciated Tuscan town of Empoli. While it's not far from the heart of the town, you'd never believe it, given the cypress-lined drive that leads up to its stunning neoclassical facade.

Stark white dominates all areas of this home, leaving it gleaming under the glorious summer sun. Inside, relax beneath soaring moulded ceilings and enjoy the cool marble floors underfoot as you wander from room to room. Perhaps the most impressive aspect of all is the main bedroom, with its private sitting room, dressing room and gorgeous bathroom with pool views from the unique round tub, plus a dazzling terrace for exclusive use. 

For those who appreciate their privacy, the en-suite attic room can be completely cordoned off. It even has its own kitchen, living room and fully furnished pocket terrace. Meanwhile, the basement offers a relaxing wellness area at the bottom of the house and leads out to the inviting pool and adjacent outdoor dining area.

Step out onto the streets and you're just a ten-minute walk from the centre of town. It's well worth paying a visit to the fascinating Museum of Glass one afternoon before stopping off at Piazza della Vittoria for an aperitivo. If you're feeling adventurous, renowned restaurant Trippéria serves up lampredotto, a traditional dish made from the fourth and final stomach of a cow. Meanwhile, if you feel like exploring further afield, the stunning cities of Pisa and Florence are both a little over half an hour away.

White Whale

Natural beauty, wellbeing and stylish interiors combine in this hilltop Tuscan hideaway. Perfect for celebrating life’s special moments, every detail of this 19th-century home sings with the natural abundance of its surroundings. And with multiple living spaces, both inside and out, you’ll find it easy to sit back and savour up the laid-back pace of rural living. 

Wake up early and enjoy unforgettable sunrises, gather for Italian-inspired meals under the trees, embrace impromptu dips in the heated pool and find a wonderful sense of relaxation in the air-conditioned bedrooms. However you choose to spend your time here, every moment promises to be enriched by the unique charm of this location. 

From here, days can be spent sightseeing in Montecatini Alto, indulging the senses with spa treatments in Montecatini Terme (4 km away) or simply exploring the countryside on foot or by bike. And for explorations further afield, take day trips to the majestic cities of Florence, Pisa or Lucca (all within driving distance). 

Valley of Serenity  

This villa can be found in charming, medieval Palazzuolo sul Senio, just over an hour from Florence. It’s surrounded by dense forests, with hiking and trekking trails through the Apennines from nearby, though a restaurant and shops 100 metres away mean it’s not too remote. If you’re like us, you’ll spend most of your time outside, swimming in the pool, chilling in the hot tub, or feasting on the covered terrace – barbecue, anyone? The two one-bedroom apartments are ideal for couples seeking a bit of space, making this an excellent choice for a large family holiday. 

Vine & Sunlight

Set within an ancient hamlet and surrounded by the rolling hills of Tuscany, this farmhouse-style villa is a slice of la dolce vita indeed. The main villa is a vision of Tuscan charm with old hearths and a huge kitchen fit for rustic feasts. Myriad lounges and living rooms allow the group to spread out. Outside, a state-of-the-art barbecue is accompanied by a stone prep area and though there are many spots to dine outside, our favourite is poolside where curtains billow. And what a pool it is – the infinity edge overlooking the Tuscan countryside. Exploring the area, San Miniato is 10km away and day trips to Lucca and Pisa are on the cards, both 48km away. 

The Piazza Rose

This villa is one of six on a complex, nestled among olive trees with views of the Tuscan hills. You’ll have use of the large, communal infinity pool as well as your own private outdoor space here. While the home has a fully equipped kitchen if you want to cater for yourself, there’s also an on-site restaurant serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Location-wise, you’re perfectly placed for walks in the countryside and we suggest hiring a car to explore the vineyards and historic villages that the region is known for.

Tuscan Casa

Set amidst the Val di Nievole, this terracotta hideaway combines Tuscan charm with contemporary touches. Views of the countryside await outdoors, whether swimming in the private pool, snoozing on a sun lounger, or savouring a glass of Italian wine on the terrace. Head indoors, and you'll find cosy living spaces, a sleek kitchen, and four comfortable bedrooms. Keen to explore? Montecatini Terme, known for its healing spas, and Pescia, famous for flowers, are both a short drive away. A day trip to Lucca, just 16 kilometres by car, could also be on the cards.

Sing of Spring

Racing fans might know Mugello for its circuit, but away from the petrol and screeching tyres, the Mugello countryside is a truly serene Tuscan gem. Just a twenty-five-minute drive from this famous track, and an hour from Florence, this rustic villa is a charming escape to rural life. Set on sloped, landscaped gardens with leafy trees, trailing foliage, and bright Mediterranean flowers, its traditional airs give way to some playful features. Keep the kids entertained with football on the five-a-side pitch in the garden, or head inside via the basement for foosball and a vintage pinball machine (‘big kids’ also welcome). Some might prefer a swim in the private pool, or sipping a negroni on one of the multiple patios, the choice is yours. You’ll also have plenty of choice for indoor relaxation, with three living rooms – one for every floor – and a delightful terrace upstairs where you can sip your espresso every morning. After a day exploring the rolling hills of Tuscany in the hot sun, we can’t think of anything better than coming home to a chilled glass of prosecco in this rural manor.

Negroni Gardens

Playground

Hammock

With vistas over the surrounding vineyards, you couldn’t get a more Tuscan setting. The beautiful garden has a swimming pool and Jacuzzi, plenty of seating areas, a kids’ playground and there’s a barbeque for sociable meals with family and friends. Inside, rustic charm is blended perfectly with modern features and designer furnishings. The accommodation is split between the main house and an annexe with one bedroom and an en-suite. The location is fantastic too – this home is situated between Lucca and Florence, so there’s plenty to see and do.
