This elegant country house lies just outside Rome, with bus links into the city. Separated into two apartments, we think it's a great choice for families. The inside of the home is quite dated and won't be to everyone's taste, and at full capacity, two guests will sleep on a sofa bed in one of the living areas. That said, kids will love the large garden and playground and your host can provide a cot and high chair for an additional fee. Outdoors you'll find a kitchen and bathroom in a separate building, along with the barbecue grill and alfresco dining area under the pergola for some extra protection from the sun.

Just over a five-minute drive from the centre of the picturesque town Rocca Di Papa, this lovely villa is ideal for a large family looking to explore Lazio’s medieval towns. 

Sip a Limoncello from a deck chair on the patio, taking in views of Lake Albano and the surrounding emerald green hills. Later, swim a few laps in the private pool or get the barbecue going for lunch in the picnic area surrounded by lush greenery. There are lots of shaded nooks and rustic hideaways across the sprawling grounds. 

Inside, vintage furnishings (think clawfoot bathtubs and wrought iron beds), wooden ceiling beams and huge oil paintings lend the home an old-world charm. We love the intricately sculpted fireplace in the grand living room – it’s a real joy. After a day in the Mediterranean sun, challenge your family to a game in the billiards room, or gather around the table football in the annex by the pool, which has its own kitchenette for late-night snacks and drinks.

Set within two hectares of land, this charming country home offers some peace and tranquility just outside of Rome. Showcasing a little rustic style, you can expect wooden floors, ceiling beams and stone walls, creating a cosy ambiance throughout. The most impressive part of this home is perhaps the garden, which has fragrant flowers and plenty of green space for the whole family to stretch out. Relax on a sun lounger with a cup of coffee or play with the kids on the playground and trampoline, there's something for everyone here. If you fancy getting out and about, there are some beautiful hiking and biking trails in the area, plus the town of Rocca di Papa itself which houses many beautiful churches.

However you spend your time, you'll always have a relaxing retreat to return to. Whip up rustic Italian feasts in the outdoor kitchen, thanks to a wood-burning oven and barbecue. The pergola is the perfect place to dine alfresco on warm evenings, before heading back indoors to get comfy by the open fireplace.

Lazio might not get the plaudits of Tuscany or Umbria, but it's still a beautiful region of Italy – just look at the hilltop views from this home's excellent outdoor space, which offers both a dining terrace and swimming pool to keep visitors happy during the warmer months. The home itself used to be a stable and while there's none of the period charm you often find with restored buildings, we think that it's a solid – if slightly unremarkable – place to rest your head for a week or two.

Dating back to the early 1900s, you can see the turn-of-the-century architecture in the stone steps between terraces and wooden-shuttered windows. It’s a veritable playground for those that seek relaxation in the terraced gardens, where succulents fill the perfectly positioned flower beds. Spend days floating in the sleek, modern swimming pool with its integrated Jacuzzi. Lunch can be taken at the round table on the lower terrace, while dinner can be set up on the upper terrace at the more formal spot. Sun loungers are shaded by parasols and there are two hanging egg chairs for reading in the sun. From here, you can catch a glimpse of the sea with the Pontine islands floating in the deep blue.

Inside, it’s an ode to grandeur as rooms are filled with gallery-worthy sculptures and striking paintings. Art deco chandeliers in the luxe living room hark back to the villa’s origins and you can take in that sea view from the comfort of plush sofas. Parquet flooring intersects with the original salvaged mosaic. We love the light-filled kitchen with its green splashes of trailing botanica. Or, perhaps, the original vaulted ceiling in the basement bedroom with its baby grand piano in the corner. 

Location-wise, you’re in the coastal town of Circeo where a long stretch of beach is just a short walk away. In the other direction, the ancient, walled centre of town awaits with a handful of local trattoria in the shambling streets.

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.

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

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.

Step-Free Access

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.

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.

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 

This recently restored 19th-century farmhouse is all you could wish for from a stay in Umbria. We love the character features such as the Barberino stone walls, terracotta floors, and barrel vault ceilings with exposed chestnut beams. The large rooms and furnishings wonderfully evoke noble hunting lodges of the last century. 

The real highlights here, though, are the beautifully-kept garden with its lawns and fragrant rose, lavender and rosemary bushes. There are around 5 hectares to explore as well. Spend your days lounging by the gorgeous saltwater pool, admiring the views over the countryside, relax in the hammock or enjoy an alfresco lunch under the jasmine-covered pergola. An impressive centuries-old oak also provides pleasant natural shade – the perfect spot to read a book.

Out and about, explore the olive groves, hills and woods of Umbria on foot, mountain bike or horseback. Or head to medieval hill town Lugnano in Teverina, a twenty-five-minute drive away. The Marmore Falls, a man-made waterfall created by the ancient Romans, is thirty minutes in the car and well worth a trip.


Heirloom Roses

Rain Shower

Tennis Court

Wooden shutters and a lush green garden give away the game as you approach this former farmhouse. Just half an hour's drive north of Rome, it's a rural retreat straight out of a romance novel. 

Push open French doors and step into pretty rooms, complete with antique furnishings, beamed ceilings and open-hearth fireplaces. Bedrooms are similarly old school, with oil paintings, terracotta floors and wooden bedframes. And for a true taste of the rustic, the old open cooking fire still remains in the kitchen. 

The stunning gardens are where we bet you'll spend most of your days, whether lounging by the pool, swinging in a hammock chair, or sipping tea underneath a towering tree. Come evening, an outdoor kitchen is on hand for you to cook up some fresh local ingredients. 

Ivy's Place

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. 

Blue Sky Vines

Hammock

Breakfast Included

This Italian farmhouse stands amid 30 hectares of private fields, woodlands, and landscaped gardens. You’ll share this space with nine retired racehorses, who graze freely on the grounds – you can even bring your own horses to share their stables. The home is grand yet tasteful, with curios in every corner – some of the decor has been used in Valentino campaigns. With a shallow fountain pool, an 1800-metre running track, and a vegetable patch the private chefs use for your meals, this home is bound to impress.

The Italian town of Viterbo – sandwiched between Rome and Tuscany – has been renowned for its thermal baths since the Romans were around. With this centrally located apartment, you don't even need to step out your front door for some restorative me-time. The home's wellness area comes with a Finnish sauna and is set up for Chromotherapy. It’s a peaceful space that gives this home real wow-factor.  

Aside from the wellness room, there are plenty of other striking design choices that vie for your attention. We love the spiral staircase that leads to the mezzanine, as well as the bold lime-green and blue kitchen. The clever reinvention of the fireplace to hold an artfully arranged source of illumination adds warmth and is yet another talking point. What's perhaps most impressive is that this isn't all found within a newly built block of apartments, but is instead hidden away behind the walls of a fifteenth-century palazzo building. 

The palazzo is in a small square typical of this part of Italy, with a church and fountain. The town of Viterbo is lovely to stroll around with a gelato, and there’s lots of history to take in. The Palazzo dei Papi is just fourteen minutes away, and is the former seat of the papacy. When you’ve had your fill of history, hop in the car and drive seven minutes to the hot springs. Soak away your troubles before returning to the apartment for another evening of blissful R&R. 

Where else could you find a property that merges history, cutting-edge design and wellness like this?


Healing Waters

The building may be old, but there’s nothing dated about this medieval home. Complete with its tower, it’s a must for history buffs or those with a penchant for Italian antiquity. This home blends comfort with old-school elegance, evidenced by the sumptuously decorated living room. The kitchen is brimming with antique casks and oil-making equipment – you’ll even find an old millstone originally used to produce olive oil, which makes for a fun conversation piece around the dinner table. 

The lush gardens are yours to explore, so why not sit for a spell in the hammock with a good book to keep you company? But be warned, it’ll be hard to look away from the views of the lush Umbrian hillside. Here, you can live life at your leisure, whether that’s taking a dip in the private pool, playing a game of table tennis or walking down to the ruins of the ancient town of Ocriculum. Only an hour’s drive from the capital city, it combines the best of country living with city access, and sleepy villages with restaurants, bars and shops are at your doorstep.

While Lazio has Rome as its regional capital, this bustling metropolis is only one face of this diverse district. Its natural landscapes feature an incredible array of lush fields, glistening lakes, and fertile farmlands. Just a seventeen-minute drive from Lake Vico, set in five thousand square feet of private grounds, this villa is right in the heart of the natural world.

Upon arrival, its red roof tiles stand out against the verdant green backdrop. Countryside views stretch out for miles from any angle, making it feel like a real retreat – but not without some luxury touches. We love the private pool at the rustic paved courtyard, and one level up you’ve got a cosy, outdoor dining terrace to shade you from the Italian sun.

Step inside to top up your glass of local wine, where you’ll find a kitchen and living space with original wooden beams propping up the sloped ceilings. Despite this rustic feel, with a chunky timber dining table to match, some of the furniture is surprisingly minimalist and modern. This is especially true of the floating staircase, a 21st-century update to this traditional country villa. Follow the steps up to the mezzanine for a relaxing slumber.

Elegance is at the fore of this breath-taking home. The villa sits in the grounds of a premium health resort, so you’ll have access to the world-class spa, library, and swimming pool. You may find, however, that you’re perfectly content to stay in the villa – you’re guaranteed luxury, grandeur and refinement here. 

The home is spread over four floors so there’s always a peaceful spot for you to escape to. If you’re hoping to unwind on your break, you’re in luck – this wonderful villa has a private spa with a sauna, steam room and Turkish bath, as well as a treatment room for two. There’s a state-of-the-art gym too, so if you prefer a more active pace, you’re all set. 

When you’re not relaxing, you might be planning impressive feasts in the dining room. Arrange for a private chef to whip up a celebratory meal, and dine together beneath a spectacular chandelier. After dinner, retire to the private garden. Sip cocktails as you soak up the luxurious ambience, and take in the view from this hillside haven. 

The villa has been designed with the Liberty period style in mind. You’ll find opulent features like the Carrara marble staircase, which is a beauty to behold. Truly, this villa needs to be seen to be believed. 


Piccolo Palazzo

Picture the setting of your perfect Italian getaway and it’ll probably look something like this. Sure, it may not be tucked away in the Tuscan hills, but this stretch of countryside is nothing to scoff at. Not only is it steeped in charm, but it’s situated within easy reach of Rome and Lake Bracciano, one of the cleanest swimming spots this side of the Mediterranean. Set off for a day of sightseeing, enjoy an action-packed day in the great outdoors or settle in for an afternoon of sunbathing by the private pool. Bliss.

Of course, the outside space is the star of the show here – how could it not be? – but there are plenty of pleasant surprises waiting for you indoors. From a hydromassage shower to a dedicated games room, your host has thought of everything – so why not treat yourself to a relaxing evening in? You’ve earnt it.

Casa Nocciola

This bright, contemporary apartment drops you right in the heart of Rome and is tailor-made for two. You’ll need to climb stairs to this third-floor home, and there’s no oven here, but with Italian eateries on your doorstep, dining out is sure to be high on the agenda. What really caught our eye though is the location. Within five minutes you can be marvelling at the impressive dome of the Pantheon, or strolling amongst Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi, Fontana del Moro and Fontana di Nettuno – the three iconic fountains dotted throughout Piazza Navona.
