We can’t imagine a holiday more serene than a stay in a seaside villa. Gifted with rooftop views of a scenic landscape, a pool right by the water (you can see the masts of bright white yachts while swimming laps) and a furnished terrace where you can eat your favourite meals and unwind with a drink or two, it’s all about the outdoor living here. After tucking into dinner under the pergola, you’ll be eager to head up to the roof for a soothing soak in the Jacuzzi. There are lounges all over the house so you can snuggle up on the sofa and watch a classic on Netflix, sit outside in the breeze as you sip some red wine and escape to a cosy living room for some alone time with a good read. When you’re looking for some family fun in the sand, Portoverde Beach is just a fifteen-minute walk from home.

Spend the afternoon enjoying the cool soak of the pool’s waterfall or head to the umbrella striped beach, less than five minutes away on foot. Rimini, with its lively nightclubs and golden beaches, is also just over thirty minutes away by car. In the evenings, gather around the home's outdoor dining table for a barbecue, then head inside for a night of musical fun in the games room, ready to host a jam session with its piano and guitar.

This stunning villa perched on a hillside along the Adriatic coast is home to picturesque vistas of the Italian seaside framed by an array of towering pines.

Here, you can rise in the morning to soft light slipping beneath the villa eaves, step outside onto your bedroom’s balcony and sit with your coffee as birds flit through the garden’s trees. Perhaps you’ll choose to head down to the local beach for a day of sand and sun, or drive north to the city of Ravenna with its rich history of art, architecture, and literature.

While there is plenty more to see and do throughout the region, we recommend you also take full advantage of this villa’s wonderfully social setting. Whether you’re sunbathing by the pool, sipping cocktails on the patio, or settling down for a home-cooked meal in the elegant dining room, we’re certain you’ll find more than enough to fill your open days.

At night, the surrounding gardens are lit with the amber glow of the garden lights and the warmth of the glowing sunset. Dine alfresco for a romantic ambience, as the spectacular views across the Romagna hills and the Adriatic Sea disappear into dusk.

The gardens have been designed to make the most of the wraparound views, so you’ll find many a terrace and quiet corner to enjoy. We love the fig tree by the pool – time your visit right and you can pick sun-warmed fruit straight from the tree for breakfast.

This home is a true haven nestled right in the heart of Arezzo. With its luscious garden and rustic interior, it's the perfect place to kick back and relax away from the hustle and bustle. 

Step inside, and you'll be enchanted by the traditional touches, from the terracotta tiles to the original fireplace and wooden ceiling beams. Budding chefs can whip up their favourite dishes in the kitchen, using the fresh Italian herbs provided. And, the leafy garden provides the ideal spot for a sundowner – open a bottle of Pinot Grigio and relax on the patio as you make some plans for the following day. 

The hilltop Arezzo Cathedral is not to be missed – admire the painted ceilings before strolling through the medieval town, gelato in hand. The nearby Piazza Grande is one of the most beautiful in the region, and is an awe-inspiring setting for a coffee or something stronger. And, if you want to explore more of eastern Tuscany then there's plenty to see just a short drive away – from vineyards to castles, there's something for everyone. 

Pistachio Pesto

On Italy’s verdant Adriatic coast, this villa is set in the quiet countryside, a short drive from crystalline beaches. There are a handful of beaches to choose from; it’s a seven-minute drive to the long stretch of sand at Marcelli, or perhaps the craggy coves of Numana are more your style, also a seven-minute drive.

The villa itself sits in a small, private complex, with the use of a shared swimming pool for hot days and a private patio and shaded veranda. Inside, you’ve got the classic wooden ceilings of Italian farmhouses and a brick-style floor reminiscent of rustic country villas. A cosy wood-burner awaits in the living room for cooler evenings and bedrooms come with pretty countryside views out the window.

Make yourself at home on the living room’s sofa – a good book and a coffee in hand – or retreat to the small private balcony for a sundowner after a day of exploring. The dining table beckons sociable soirées when you’re not out sampling the local trattorias, while the two bedrooms – with their beamed ceilings and rooftop views – are a treat to come back to after a day of sightseeing, or enjoying one of the many tours and cooking classes on offer through your host. 

Outside of your home, you’ll find Piazza della Repubblica a one-minute walk away, Porta Sant'Agostino a seven-minute stroll and the ​​Diocesan Museum three minutes away on foot. 


Sunflower Beams

Nestled in the rolling hills of Marche, this home is the definition of rural charm. The 200-year-old farmhouse is now a charming, four-bedroom villa showcasing both modern amenities and traditional style. Admire the exposed wooden beams and fireplace in the living space, and take in the views from the master bedroom's private balcony – whoever takes this room is very lucky indeed. The garden is an attraction in its own right, with flourishing flowers and shaded dining areas where you can enjoy breakfast in the morning. Relax by the pool with a book and soak up the views, returning to the house only to rustle up lunch in the kitchen to enjout in the conservatory, one of our favourite spots. If it's even possible, the gardens perhaps look more charming after the sun goes down, when the pool lights up and lamps cast the trees in a warm glow. Gather out here for a barbecue, and afterwards curl up in the historic living room for a nightcap. While this home's charm comes from its rural location, you're just a twenty-minute drive from Pesaro, a coastal city where you can visit palaces and take to the many cycling trails.

The Valley of Angels 

Bicycles

Surrounded by scenery straight out of an oil painting, it comes as no surprise that the variety of landscape in the Valdarno area is believed to have been portrayed by the great da Vinci himself. The so-called balze that characterise the region and numerous artworks, rural structures, and Romanesque churches provide the perfect backdrop to this stunning, Tuscan palace. By no means out of place amongst such grandeur and history, an aristocratic elegance floods this home. From its turreted bedrooms, wooden beam ceilings, and formal dining room, to its private drive and panoramic veranda that looks out onto twenty-hectares of land and bordering vineyards. Large groups and families will have no struggle for space here, with a main house and two annexes to spread out over.

Villa da Vinci

Carbon Monoxide Detector

View From The Evening

With white marble, dark stained woods, and rough-hewn stone, this villa feels like an extension of the Italian hillside rather than anything made by man. Overlooking the countryside of the quiet province of Pesaro and Urbino, this home is made for relaxation; float in the crystal waters of the pool, swing in the huge hammock on the deck while the kids entertain themselves in the little playhouse, and admire the panoramic views of the poplars, cypresses and oaks that surround the home. If you can rouse yourself to explore further, you’ll discover a whole host of delights within five minutes of your home. The country’s truffle capital, Acqualagna, is just a few minutes drive away, so you can dine on the delicacy at every meal, and a short stroll will bring you to your very own private beach on the shores of the Candigliano River – perfect for picnics, fishing expeditions, and swimming beneath the high Italian sun. 

Tartufo Bianco

This charming holiday apartment lies in the heart of Cortona, ideal for a romantic getaway. The terrace boasts lovely views of the surrounding landscape, though the outdoor space is overlooked by nearby buildings, so it doesn't feel the most private. Your host can provide a free high chair here and little ones will love the garden, though the interior decor is quite traditional and won't be for everyone. You'll find public parking a short walk away, but Cortona's mouth-watering restaurants and picturesque churches are reached easily on foot, so you won't need a car.

Garden Oasis Retreat

Outdoor Shower

Set in a 17th-century hamlet in the Umbrian countryside, this home has an idyllic location. Take in the views from the garden with its private pool or the variety of terraces. The accommodation is split between two stone-built farmhouses, so this place is ideal for extended families or friends. Each house is set over two floors and has a kitchen, dining area and lounge and has traditional decor. The area is perfect for hiking or explore the picturesque Medieval village of Monte Santa Maria Tiberina, which is a short drive away.

Perfect Gem

Tennis Court

There’s even a consecrated chapel on the grounds, making this villa an excellent choice for events. 

The Italian Villa

Rain Shower

Built as a farm at the end of the 19th century, this rural home has oodles of charm and Tuscan character. We're swooning over the original terracotta-vaulted ceilings, the exposed cork beams and the huge fireplace, which is the perfect spot to snuggle up with a cup of tea on wintery nights. Every room captures the essence of old-world Tuscany – warm, cosy and pastoral – but there are modern conveniences too, like rainfall showers and a ping-pong table in the garden.

Surrounded by a sea of olive trees and with vistas of the mountains, the garden is utterly enchanting. Start the morning off with an espresso on the outdoor sofa, cool off on sunny afternoons with a swim in the pool, then fire up the stone barbecue and dine under the wisteria-covered pergola on summer evenings. 

If you fancy exploring, there are plenty of places to discover. Just down the road is artsy Cortona, an Etruscan town with views across the Chiana Valley. Want to stretch your legs? Lace up your walking shoes and go for a hike through the hilly countryside – there are many scenic outlooks and trails within easy reach. Or really pick up the pace with a visit to Arezzo or Perugia, both about forty-five minutes by car and excellent spots for day trips. 

The Softest Crimson

Located in Sirolo, an area known as the ‘pearl of the Adriatic’, this home is perfect for your next family holiday or getaway with your friends. Spend many hours soaking up the sunshine on the rooftop terrace as you recline on a sunbed and enjoy a great holiday read.

This home is in a medieval town in the Marche region, situated in the Conero Regional Park, home to some of the most beautiful beaches in the whole region, so why not spend time on the beach – which is reachable in just twenty minutes on foot? Then, in the evening, we would love to dine alfresco on authentic pizza and pasta – accompanied by a bottle of local Italian wine – under the shade of the trees.

Stepping inside, you’ll find an uplifting space designed to enrich your stay with the simple pleasures of Italian living.

The Ancient Stone

Espresso Machine

Giving way to sweeping views of the Arezzo hills, this villa's outdoor space is undoubtedly the main draw. With a swimming pool and ample seating for everything from alfresco dining to sunbathing, it's made for sun worshippers. Little ones will also adore the green back garden where they can let their imaginations and legs run free. Though it feels hard to beat the panoramic landscape, it does try. Starting with the indoors hot tub and sauna, where a large bi-fold door connects you to the outdoors. We also like the mix of modern and rustic elements here. As for location, you're a short drive from Arezzo. 

The Whispering Hills

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.

La Favola

Nestled quietly in the countryside, this beautiful home will enchant you from the moment you first set eyes on it. With views over the Val di Chiana and Cortona, this home has it all – stunning stonework, exposed beams, comfortable furnishings and rich gardens. Spend your days swimming in the panoramic infinity pool which is unique, thanks to its telescopic closure system – close the walls and roof and you can access the pool directly from the living room. 

Combining traditional Italian rustic charm with elegance and class, it won't just be the terracotta accents helping you feel the warmth of this home. Dine with loved ones in the wonderfully open-plan space or even share a pizza at the outdoor wood oven, before snuggling around the fireplace to enjoy a bottle of wine and good conversation. With the main villa alongside two annexes, there’s space for privacy but enough to keep the whole family entertained, making this home the perfect backdrop to an Italian adventure. 

Just a few kilometres from Castiglion Fiorentino and delightful Cortona, explore their beauty by meandering through the streets, following the scent of the most divine local cuisine, before returning to your charming rural retreat.

Each suite has its own bedroom, bathroom and sitting area, making it perfect for couples and teenagers craving their own space.

Go for a dip in the private pool overlooking sunflower fields in summer, sit in the garden under one of the ancient trees with a good book, or just let yourself be inspired by the surrounding scenery. Whether you're keen to explore the countryside on bike or horseback, or fancying a home-cooked meal in one of the alfresco dining areas under the sun, there's no shortage of ways to spend your days.

You'll be well-placed to discover a number of nearby villages and towns, not to mention beaches. Enjoy an authentically Italian experience – Le Marche is one of the lesser visited provinces, so it's quite the hidden gem. Whether you're lacing up your boots for a scenic walk through the lush landscapes or finding your new favourite restaurant, this home puts you in one of the best spots possible for making the most of your holiday.

Sunflower Hills

A seven-minute drive from two of the Adriatic coast’s glorious beaches, this Italian country villa sits in a blissfully quiet location. You’re overlooking rolling vineyards here, verdant green in summer and burnt orange and sunshine yellow in autumn. The perfect shores of Marcelli Beach and Numama Beach are each a seven-minute drive away, where loungers line the sand and the sea is crystal clear.

Back at the villa, you’ve got a shared swimming pool should you fancy a cooling dip in summer. Open up the double doors in the living room to the private brick patio, or the shaded veranda on the other side of the house. Inside, you’ve got the staples of Italian rusticana keeping things on theme; wooden ceilings and thick exposed stone walls. The kitchen is decidedly sleek and modern, and there are pops of character courtesy of gilded mirrors and Chinese dressers. 

Vine Leaves on the Horizon

The owner of this glorious villa surrounded by rolling Tuscan countryside is an author and it might not be a surprise to learn that she's heavily inspired by the stunning landscape. In fact, one of her books uses this very address as a location within the plot.

Recently renovated, many of the traditional architectural features have been retained, including the wooden ceiling beams, stone archways and antique marble bathtubs, but contemporary flourishes can also be spotted quite easily, such as the vast collection of decorative items and artwork.

Given the glorious climate that this part of the country enjoys, you'll probably want to spend as much time outdoors as possible and you're presented with plenty of ways to do just that. The oak dining table on the loggia is a sophisticated spot for alfresco meals, while there's also a heated swimming pool surrounded by olive trees and a tennis court elsewhere on the grounds that will help you work up an appetite.

A quick glance at the landscape will let you know that you're in a truly isolated position here. In the locale, there are plenty of scenic walks, medieval castles and historic hilltop towns to visit, while the city of Perugia takes about forty-five minutes in the car to reach.

DVD Library

Hidden away in deepest Tuscany, this home is ideal for anybody eager to escape the stresses of modern life and embrace la dolce vita instead – even if only for a week or two.

The villa is a real rustic gem, with character galore in the stone walls, wooden ceiling beams and the feature wood-burning fireplace in the living room. Those fond of the latest interior design trends might not be too happy with some of the dated elements, but those not so committed to aesthetics should find no cause for complaint.

Especially when the marvellous outdoor space is taken into consideration. Across the 100 hectares of grounds, there's a long swimming pool in which to cool off during the height of summer, plus vineyards, olive groves and vegetable gardens to please the foodies in the group. The wood oven and barbecue will help you whip up lavish feasts, which can be enjoyed in the open air.

As even the most cursory of glances at the surroundings will show, the home really is isolated and quite tranquil for it. That being said, there are options for day trips only a short drive away. The town of Cortona is only 15km away and is worth a trip for the Renaissance-era architecture alone. Watersports fans might also want to head over to Lake Trasimeno, 36km away.

Rural Dreamscape

A short drive from the medieval village of Arcevia, this historic country house offers a peaceful retreat in the gentle hills of Le Marche. Set across six self-contained apartments, it’s well suited to larger groups or families travelling together, with plenty of privacy when needed. The interiors lean rustic – think exposed beams, stone walls and sturdy wooden furniture, offering plenty of Italian charm. Outside, there’s a pool, two hot tubs and various garden spots for al fresco dining or sunset aperitifs. You’re also within easy reach of walking trails, castles and local wineries – making it a sublime setting for exploring.

A Rustic Vision

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

Set in 30,000 square metres of grounds, this home is the Tuscan dream. There’s a turquoise swimming pool for hot summer days, a volleyball and football pitch, and a well-tended orto (vegetable garden) where you can help yourself to seasonal sun-ripened produce and cook just like a local. If the weather is fine a barbecue might be in order – there are plenty of places to sit and enjoy a meal around the garden – plus an annex with a fully-equipped gym for burning off the feast the night before. Inside the traditional villa, there’s a luxuriously modern feel, yet the old Tuscan charm has been retained. Uplighting illuminates exposed brick archways and vaulted ceilings as though proudly displayed in a museum, and antique furniture sits alongside modern, comfy sofas. The sleek, minimalist kitchen has everything you need for an Italian feast from the orto and dinner can be accompanied by a bottle of local red from the stocked wine cellar (wine is not included in the rental price). This home is split between the main villa and a garden cottage. The garden cottage houses a full spa with massage rooms, a sauna and a Jacuzzi – just ask your host to make a booking. You’re in the Valdichiana hills here, looking out over olive groves and the rolling scenery Tuscany is famous for, and it’s a twenty-minute drive to the beautiful Etruscan town of Cortona.

Ten Green Bottles

If you're a frequent visitor to Tuscany and looking for somewhere that's slightly off the beaten track for your next trip, the medieval town of Cortona is a lovely choice and this apartment on the outer edges will help you see the best of it.

Spread across two floors, the interior is a distinctive mix of period features, such as the flagstone floors and wooden ceiling beams, and modern touches, like the monochrome kitchen and smart grey bathroom. Compared to a lot of other apartments for two, there's a pleasing amount of space inside and nothing feels cramped.

The local town is one that's easy to explore on foot and you'll discover plenty of restaurants and ice cream parlours, plus a couple of museums, during your wanderings. The Basilica of Saint Margaret of Cortona and Fortress of Girifalco are both only twenty minutes away on foot, too.

Back in the 19th century, you would have caught farm animals seeking shelter in this stone building in rural Marche. Today, however, you're more likely to spot holiday-makers with some of the biggest grins you've ever seen.

Why the happiness? Well, it's very easy to fall in love with this home. The recent restoration work has managed to both retain characterful period features – such as the fireplaces and wooden ceiling beams – while adding a contemporary sheen that wouldn't be out of place in Italy's biggest cities. The layout is quite unique too, with the home now composed of two independent apartments, each with a wealth of living space and kitchens – ideal for two families travelling together.

Whenever you want to gather everybody together, there's ample space in the beautiful grounds filled with fragrant plants and trees. On warm afternoons, the natural-style swimming pool is sure to be popular, as will the leafy pergola ready and waiting for indulgent alfresco banquets.

If you're in the mood for sightseeing, the historic centre of Urbino – a UNESCO World Heritage Site, no less – is a good place to start and is only 23km away by car. The beaches of Fano are only half an hour's drive, too.

Relaxation is the order of the day at this 19th-century farmhouse in Tuscany's Ranchetto region. Located within its own natural park, lined by tall oak and chestnut trees, it's perfect for those after unwavering peace and privacy. 

Upon arrival, the home's stone exterior, wooden shutters and juniper roofing hark back to the place's history, and we can't help but swoon over the warm and inviting living space inside. Beamed ceilings and terracotta floors add plenty of visual interest, while the very earthy and natural colour palette will soon have you feeling right at home. Cook up a storm in the country-style kitchen, then spill out into the beautiful communal outdoor areas. 

With a completely-fenced garden of about 3000 sq/m, full of green foliage and potted flowers, you'll have no choice but to slow right down, adopt the pace of nature and unwind. Whether you're tucking into a lazy alfresco lunch on the terrace, cooling off with a few up and downs in your glistening pool or enjoying an apéritif under the pergola, you're sure to feel completely at ease. 

If you can muster up the energy to leave this beautiful home, there's so much exploring to do nearby. Start with a visit to the traditional neighbouring town of Castiglion Fiorentino, where age-old buildings, museums and artwork make for a great historical trip, just a twenty-eight-minute drive away. You'll also find the popular hilltop town of Cortona and the attractive city of Arezzo in less than thirty minutes by car.
