You’ll agree this place looks like it’s been plucked from the pages of a storybook. So, if you’re sitting comfortably, we’ll begin. Deep in the wooded Romagna hills, where dappled trees give way to the picture-perfect town of Santa Sofia, winding backroads lead to a large rustic gate. Behind it, you’ll find a lovingly restored and painstakingly renovated Byzantine church. And this is just the introduction. Inside, stand in reverence as you absorb the cavernous living space where towering columns support thick stone walls and vaulted ceilings. Up in the rafters, you’ll find the bedrooms, with antique beds that are ‘just right’ – waking up in them feels like another lifetime. Outside, enchanting gardens await – there's an old wishing well, luxurious infinity pool with waterfall features and a romantic alfresco dining nook – perfect for twilight meals. Settle into the hammock during balmy afternoons or find a spot overlooking the immaculate landscape. There’s nothing but the sound of the wind dancing through the trees and bees humming in fragrant petunias, where you can stay, happily ever after.

Nice to haves

This elegant home in Tuscany is in a dreamy spot in a valley, in a countryside setting that leads to absolute relaxation. The villa is full of character, with antique furniture and wooden beams, in addition to mesmerising views. 

The outside space is lush and pretty. Roses and lavender have been planted alongside a wealth of trees, making the garden feel like an oasis. In the morning, sip coffee at the table under the gazebo, admiring the views and planning your day. If you’re anything like us, you won’t be able to resist a dip in the hedge-lined swimming pool for long. Dry off on a sun lounger with a good book, or start a table tennis tournament with your friends. 

In the evening, set up outside at the long dining table. You might like to arrange for a local chef to come and cook for you – that way you can enjoy a cocktail hour on the terrace before dining as the sun sets beyond the valley. 

The villa is only a short walk along the river to the centre of peaceful Poggibonsi, so you can easily dine out in the local restaurants or grab a gelato. Montemorli vineyard is just a twenty-minute walk up the hill, while the medieval beauty of San Gimignano is a mere twenty-one-minute drive away. Slightly further afield, you can be in Siena in thirty minutes, and Florence in an hour.

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.

In a sleepy town in Tuscany, this breathtaking apartment is a unique find. Set in a former palazzo, it boasts classical Tuscan features like high ceilings, traditional archways, and a grand red brick exterior. Neutral colours inside contrast with the spectacular frescoed walls. We love the Rococo-style cherub fresco above the bed, lending the room a celestial aura. There is plenty of space to relax in the large open plan living area, and the fully stocked kitchen is perfect for practising your Italian home cooking. 

Certaldo Alto is a charming walled Medieval town, home to winding cobbled streets, picturesque churches, family run restaurants, and sprawling views of the verdant Tuscan countryside. It is 35km from Florence, making a day trip to the city easy. While you are there, be sure to sample some of the excellent wines from the region. After a day of exploring, kick back on the sofa in your opulent living room, before retreating to the serene calm of the bedroom for a perfect night’s sleep. With its romantic setting and unbeatable location, this would be the perfect getaway for couples.

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.

Child Friendly

Overlooking the Tuscan countryside from its hillside position, this rustic villa boasts some incredible views – best celebrated from the outside dining area and elegant infinity pool. We think it's a great fit for families with a lovely private garden as well as flexible sleeping arrangements – the twin beds can be converted into doubles upon request. Keen cooks will love the modern chef's kitchen for preparing alfresco suppers – though if you feel like dining out, the nearby village of Volpaia and the market town of Radda are both just a short drive away. You will need to hire a car to get around here, and the drive will often be hilly and uneven. 

The Olive Tint

If you’re in search of a rustic getaway, this 18th-century home ticks all the right boxes. Surrounded by trees, the garden offers beautiful views, as well as a swimming pool (open seasonally), a barbecue and a wood-burning pizza oven. You’ll find the main house consists of two independent apartments, while the garden cottage has an additional two bedrooms – providing plenty of space for groups to spread out and enjoy quality time together. Some of the furnishings are a little dated, but there’s plenty of charm and character. It’s also just a short drive from the picturesque hilltop town of Cortona (2.5 kilometres away), while the nearest amenities are also just a short drive away.

The Valley of Angels

Surrounded by olive groves and ancient woods, this traditional farmhouse welcomes you to an authentic stay in the heart of Tuscany. 

Located on Pomaio hill with sweeping views across the countryside, this is a wonderful setting to retreat into the heart of nature. And from the moment you arrive, you’ll want to savour the rustic simplicity and charm of this home – it’s the perfect place to connect with the timeless beauty of Italy. 

Families and friends will love gathering here – the communal spaces feel warm and intimate, inviting you to slow down and enjoy quality time together. And whether you’re drinking your morning coffee in the garden, swimming in the pool or cooking in the cosy kitchen, this is the kind of home that enriches daily living. 

Outside, follow the garden path out into the surrounding countryside for an inspiring stroll, or make the short drive into the majestic city of Arezzo – just ten–minutes away. Whether you’re admiring 15th century frescoes and abbeys, or olive trees and vineyards, this home is the perfect setting to celebrate the authentic taste of Tuscany. 

The Terracotta Sun

Fenced Property

Amidst the vineyards and olive groves of Tuscany, this winery estate perfectly embodies the magic of its location. Enjoy idyllic views and slow days relaxing by the private pool. There’s an outdoor kitchen with a pizza oven for memorable evenings under the stars. Inside, the rooms are set across the main house and the adjoining cottage – making this a great option for groups and families looking to stretch out and spend quality time together. You’ll also be perfectly placed for adventures across the Chianti Classico region. It's also just a twenty-minute walk into the heart of Greve in Chianti, where you’ll find a great selection of artisan shops, restaurants and patisseries.  

The Vineyard Dreams

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.

The views at this Umbrian home are truly spectacular. The villa stands in vast private grounds just a ten-minute drive from the hilltop town of Montone, looking out over the hills and valleys of the Umbrian countryside. It’s a secluded retreat, but still within easy access to all that Umbria has to offer. The villa is rustic, with a simple and comfortable decor – expect cotto floors, beamed ceilings and exposed original stonework, plus a few antiques. 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. 

Drink in the Serenity

Workplace

This marvellous Tuscan villa is perfect for groups eager to sample the unique delights of the Chianti region. Set back from civilisation in the region's rolling hills, up to eight guests can rest comfortably across four en-suite bedrooms, or wander the expansive grounds dotted with trees and surrounded by olive groves. Inside the villa's stone walls you'll also find an abundance of regional charm, including terracotta floors, exposed beam ceilings, a pizza oven, and elegant living areas. However, arguably the jewel in its crown lies outside, in the form of a dazzling hillside infinity pool. And with the town of Gaiole in Chianti close by and the city of Florence around an hour away, local delights go far beyond wine.

The Chianti Hills

Tucked into the vine-covered Tuscan hills, this home promises an idyllic escape from day-to-day life. Sure, the traditional interiors may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but you’ll find everything needed for a comfortable stay here and plenty of room to spread out and relax. The outdoor space is sure to become a favourite for the whole group, with sun beds, alfresco dining spots, and a private pool to enjoy. Ready to explore the local area? We recommend a trip to Certaldo. Here, you can take the funicular up to the old walled settlement or dine out on authentic Italian cuisine to your heart’s content.

This Tuscan farmhouse is in a peaceful spot, nestled among olive groves and vineyards. The home consists of two apartments, each with its own entrance, garden, and patio, so is a great choice for a group – you can holiday together and still enjoy your own space. Carefully restored, the farmhouse retains many original features and is filled with antiques. Also, who could fail to be impressed by those countryside views? We think they're best enjoyed from the two private pools. When it comes to exploring, you’ve got Colle Val d'Elsa and San Gimignano within easy driving distance, and if you want to get off the tourist trail, your host is happy to suggest some hidden gems.

This 400-year-old luxury farmhouse sits in the Chianti hills between Florence and Siena. Up on a hilltop, the view over the forest-clad countryside is simply sublime, from secluded seating nooks around the garden and from the 12-person dining table on the patio. Alfresco dining is a cinch thanks to a wood-fired pizza oven and barbecue area. An infinity pool invites you for a cooling dip and there’s a dedicated games room inside for evenings at the pool table. The group can spread out between two sitting rooms inside where the traditional farmhouse aesthetic blends with modern features. Wine-tasting sessions are on offer in the private wine cellar, arranged through your host.

Chianti Breeze

Jacuzzi

High up in the hills of Chianti sits this magnificent eighteenth-century residence, flanked by olive groves, rose gardens and lemon trees. The sublime archway structures harken back to the traditional Italian palazzo, and the interiors – prizing terracotta tiles and antique furniture – have a distinctly regal feel. With grounds that sprawl out over multiple hectares and rolling hills surrounding you, you’ll feel like royalty staying here. The dining room is prime for opulent banquets, while the arched patio and the poolside area will answer all of your relaxation needs. When the sun heats up, head down the terracotta steps for a cool swim under the Mediterranean sun. Even better, you’ll be surrounded by the lush vineyards and beautiful food of the Chianti region. What more could you want?


Chianti Classico

Outdoor Shower

In the green hills of Mugello, this villa offers the peace and tranquillity of the countryside but is just a forty-minute drive from Florence. Head to Italy’s capital of culture to explore the endless collections of the Ufizzi and dine overlooking the Ponte Vecchio. 

The home itself is traditionally stone-built, with the wooden ceilings on show, an old hearth in the dining room and the farm’s well still on display. Sprawling grounds house a swimming pool with a view over the rolling hills beyond, and a rustic-style loggia for outdoor dining – perfect when you're serving something cooked with fresh vegetables straight from the home's veggie patch. The stone-built, wood-fired barbecue is ideal for summer evenings. 

Apart from Tuscan farmhouse tradition, inside you’ll find some vintage touches like a wireless radio from the early 20th century, and antique furnishings. The old kitchen has been preserved with museum-like care (with a traditional bread over that still works), but the modern kitchen is a sleek, professional affair with slate-grey units and a huge island at its core. 

The town of Scarperia e San Piero is a four-minute drive away to stock up on supplies and there’s even a country restaurant just behind this home if you don’t fancy driving.


Gates of Paradise

What could be more idyllic than waking up in a plush bed under the wooden beams of an ancient Tuscan home, only to step outside and be greeted by the sun-kissed hills of the countryside sprawling before you as far as the eye can see? This is exactly what awaits you at this magnificent villa lost in the stunning heart of Tuscany. 

Arrive to be wowed by its stone exterior and lush gardens which surround it. And then of course there are the views – whether you’re enjoying a sunset supper on the terrace in the company of your loved ones or lounging comfortably by the pool, the breathtaking vistas are all around you. 

The inside will greet you with a warm and welcoming ambience – while this home has been recently renovated to feature all the modern comforts it also retains all of its original features, such as the wood beams on the ceiling and the stone walls, along with buckets of rustic charm. There’s also plenty of room to kick off your shoes and relax on the sofas and enjoy evenings of wine and movies with your friends and family. The large country-style kitchen will inspire you to create delicious feasts which you can share with the entire party either at the grand indoor dining table or outside on the terrace. 

Nighttime brings about the promise of blissful sleep, courtesy of the comfy bedrooms – awake refreshed and enjoy a cup of freshly brewed Italian coffee outside. You can easily pass entire days without ever leaving this country oasis, but in case you feel like exploring there is plenty to see in these parts. From scenic walks to visiting the nearby village of Civitella val di Chiana, one of the best-kept Longobardic fortresses. For a memorable day trip, why not take the one-hour drive over to the beautiful city of Siena. 

Forever Views

Free Parking

The quintessential Tuscan villa, this hillside four bedroom home looks out over the verdant Val d'Orcia. Ideal for families or friend groups seeking an authentic taste of Italian country life, the house sleeps eight and offers plenty of space for work, rest and play. More active guests can explore the sweeping grounds, play table tennis in the second living area, or cool off in the shared pool. Meanwhile, those seeking tranquillity can settle on a sun lounger, dine out on the terrace, or refine their cooking in the eye-catching wooden kitchen. The historic city of Siena lies 10km away, where the hectic Il Palio horse race turns the streets into a bustling festival twice a summer.

Siena Charm

If forest bathing is your thing, this converted riverside mill is just the ticket. Slap bang in the beautiful Tuscan countryside, the abode is surrounded by mature trees, olive groves and rambling woodland trails that lead to a secret waterfall. Inside the main house, there’s a rustic yet refined approach. Expect exposed stone and timber beams with plenty of modern conveniences to ensure your stay as fuss-free as possible. Plus, there’s a private apartment with a bedroom, kitchen and en-suite bathroom – ideal for holidays with extended family or friends. There are village restaurants and shops a short drive away in the Montalbano hills and Florence is only 20 kilometres away, so you can get your culture fix in the morning and be back by the pool in time for an afternoon swim followed by a glass of something chilled on the expansive terrace. 

Verdant Possibilities

Nestled on a hilltop estate surrounded by vineyards, this home is one of six on the site of a former medieval castle. You'll share access to the grounds and swimming pool with other guests, but there's a private patio where you can enjoy an alfresco glass of wine. It's also got plenty of character inside – think arched doorways, terracotta floors, and beamed ceilings. Location-wise, you're just a quick car ride from Radda and Gaiole. Whether you're keen to visit the local wineries or venture further afield to Siena or Florence, this is a prime spot to explore the Chianti countryside.

Florence and Pisa steal the limelight for Tuscan cities, yet Cortona is a hidden gem brimming with character. Authentically Italian and undoubtedly pretty, the sleepy streets and welcoming ambiance is the perfect immersion into the local lifestyle. For true convenience, you're expertly placed to explore every part of the town.

The town centre is just three minutes away, giving you instantly access to the charming cafes, restaurants and shops. Spend leisurely afternoons moseying around the quaint streets, finding chic clothing in the aisles and delicious food in the eating spots.

If you wanted to keep things private and intimate, your host can arrange a private chef to rustle up some top-notch dishes at home. When the weather is warm, you can enjoy each sumptuous bite on the cute outdoor table in the garden. 

Even if you're not eating, the garden is a dreamy spot to spend the evening. Pick up a bottle of wine from town and share a glass or two with the beautiful view as your background.

This charming apartment is in the old town of Colle di Val d'Elsa, a typically medieval region of Tuscany famous for crystal glass production. It’s a ten-minute stroll into the centre where you’ll find restaurants, cafés and archaeological museums beyond the ancient town walls. Further afield, the city of Siena is a half-hour drive away, ideal for a day trip.

The apartment itself is housed in a striking 16th-century building just outside the bridge that leads to il Castello. Wood beams on display hark back to the building’s roots, but the decor is decidedly modern. Vibrant modern art is displayed above the plush, L-shaped sofa and the kitchen is a sleek space of white cabinets. The best bit is the view from French-style windows, which shows off golden fields and hills, even though you’re a short walk from the town centre.

Sitting atop the Chianti hills overlooking the Vignamaggio Valley, this stone estate blends traditional Tuscan charm with modern comforts. It’s perfect for a large group, with a main villa and a renovated barn offering three apartments. While the apartments suit guests seeking privacy, the outdoor terrace is ideal for sharing Tuscan meals together. Relaxation is a priority here, with an outdoor pool, an indoor pool with a hydromassage tub, plus a chromotherapy and infrared sauna. The villa is just 800m from Panzano, with archaeological sites, medieval castles, and monasteries in nearby villages. This is the perfect spot for hiking the Tuscan hills or visiting one of the many vineyards that this region is known for.

Tuscan Hues

Escape to the beautiful Tuscan countryside, with a stay in this traditional Italian home. You’ll be welcomed by a serene garden with a pool and a covered veranda with an outdoor kitchen for alfresco dining. There’s also a wellness area with a sauna and a hot tub to ensure optimum relaxation. Inside, you’ll find tradition and contemporary comfort with all five bedrooms featuring en-site bathrooms for privacy. We recommend hiring a car to get around here, but it’s just a short drive to Ambra where you’ll find the nearest restaurants and shops. You can also drive to Arezzo, Florence and Siena for inspiring day trips.  


Peaceful Love 

Heated Towel Rail

Traditional and romantic, this charming Tuscan home is in wine country, and we can practically smell the freshly uncorked Chianti from here. Beautiful to look at, both inside and out, and surrounded by lovely gardens, this is the kind of place where everything can just slow right down. Stroll to the pool for a morning swim, laze in the hammock in the shade of the trees, and casually put together delightful meals using the finest local ingredients. Inside, there are tiled floors, shuttered windows and exposed timbers, making for a rustic feel. There's a country kitchen for dining inside, but we're guessing you'll make the most of the covered terrace and eat alfresco each and every day. There’s nothing better than a wine tasting experience in these parts, so we recommend you sample the product at the Castello di Albola winery, just a ten-minute drive away. And if you're tempted to head off for a cultural day out, the stunning Renaissance city of Siena is just fifty minutes away.

Stepping inside, you’ll find an uplifting space designed to enrich your stay with the simple pleasures of Italian living. From luminous mornings watching the sun rise over the valley to cosy evenings curled up by the fire, this is the kind of space that adapts to suit the needs of the moment. And for the ultimate sense of relaxation, the swimming pool is perfectly poised for refreshing swims and lazy afternoons reading under a tree.

This incredible eighteenth-century villa in the heart of Tuscany is a wonderful setting for a wedding or just a gathering of your nearest and dearest. With views out over the Tuscan hills, the spectacularly sited pool, waterlily-filled ponds and courtyards make it worth the stay alone. The gravelled terrace overlooking the undulating countryside can be set up for special events, and there’s a built-in barbecue for a more casual alfresco feast. Exploring the grounds, spread over a hectare, you'll find tennis courts, secluded terraces and woodland walks.

Step inside to find wooden beams, traditional shuttered windows, arched alcoves and soaring high ceilings, all of which were designed by the architect Massimiliano Soldani, who created the residence as his private home. The dining room can host the whole group, and several lounges and sitting rooms come adorned with bold modern artworks and chandeliers beneath the wooden ceilings. There are two kitchens to choose from, one in holiday-cheery canary yellow, with an old brick fireplace still ensconced in the wall. 

You’re in the heart of the countryside here, with Arezzo and Siena within day-tripping distance. Those that like a walk will appreciate the hike up to Torre di Galatrona, which starts just beyond the villa’s boundary, or perhaps a day at the winery next door. 

Eighteenth-Century Splendour

Parking On Premises

Nestled in the heart of the Tuscan countryside, this charming cottage offers a tranquil retreat for families or small groups. Set on a resort, if you’re not enjoying the privacy of the cottage garden or hot tub, you can take a refreshing dip in the shared pool, just a short stroll away, or challenge your friends to a game on the tennis court. With walking trails including the Dievole Natural Path on your doorstep, wine tasting, and nearby villages to explore, you’ll find the perfect blend of relaxation and adventure.

Tuscan Flow

If you’re looking for an escape from it all, this could be the home for you. Set on a private road deep in the woods, this Chianti villa has tranquillity running through its core. We love the seamless blend of modern furniture with the traditional building here, but the outdoor space is our biggest winner. Sun-kissed terraces, a hot tub, a private pool, alfresco dining areas – what’s not to love? If you can tear yourself away, it’s a mere ten-minute drive to the wine-making town of Gaiole, which is well worth a visit.

Situated a short drive outside the bustling medieval city of Siena, this villa offers a true escape in the Tuscan countryside. Originally constructed as a watchtower, its 12th-century exterior has been updated with a stunning glass pavilion that offers 270-degree views of rolling Tuscan hills covered in cypress trees and olive groves. Beyond the sliding doors, an oxygen-cleaned pool offers a relaxing spot to while away your days, with a counter-current swim machine if you're feeling active. And though it's technically capable of accommodating up to four people, it makes for a perfect romantic retreat for two.
