Decadent in every sense of the word, this villa in the Tuscan countryside is a dream come true, as far as we're concerned. Owned by a bespoke interior designer, it should come as no surprise that every room is a treasure trove, filled with plush furniture, eclectic knick-knacks, antique furniture and that unique designer touch that makes it sing. Historic character is around every corner – we're particularly fond of the wooden beams and brick ceilings – but all the mod-cons are accounted for, including a stunning chef's kitchen perfect for meal prepping and small, luxurious bathrooms complete with rainfall showers.

But there's no denying that the garden is the best part of all. Romantic and magical, we'd happily spend all our time out here, admiring the medieval architecture of the 10th-century church next door. While away lazy afternoons swimming in the private pool, sunbathing on the lounge chairs and reading in the gazebo. Come dinnertime, share an Italian feast and a bottle of Tuscan wine under the leafy pergola as the night falls, surrounded by twinkling fairy lights. When you're ready to venture out, Tuscany's main sights are all reachable by car – including Florence, Lucca and Pistoia – but we're just as happy to stay local and discover Montecarlo's traditional eateries, wineries and medieval fortress.

The Magic Before

Private Parking

Child Friendly

This rustic farmhouse surrounded by picturesque hills makes for a restful Tuscan retreat. The interiors are a little dated in parts, but perfectly comfortable for a rural stay – the dining room with panoramic windows is a highlight. Outside, the terrace offers swing seats, loungers and a dining area, so you can maximise every moment with those country views. The unpaved track to this house is a little tricky to navigate, so it’s not the best for low-suspension cars. Nearby you’ll find Pescia’s authentic restaurants and shops, while Lucca lies less than 25km away should you feel like a day in the city.

Pescia Paradise

Espresso Machine

Cypress trees and olive groves perfume the air around this stunning Tuscan farmhouse, located just a five-minute drive from the village of Pescia. A truly romantic getaway, you’ll fall in love with its blend of rustic charm and elegant decor that seamlessly flows through each room. Food enthusiasts will fall head over heels for the farm-style kitchen, which after a local cooking class, is sure to inspire plenty of feasts. The calming white conservatory is the perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee before heading out to the pool for a swim and some sunbathing. With plenty of outdoor seating and stunning views of the lush, green grounds, this secluded spot is an oasis. When the sun starts to set, mix yourself some cocktails to have out on the veranda before sitting down for a lantern-lit alfresco dinner. For truly memorable nights, book a private chef to serve you an Italian banquet, or if a more casual night is on the table, fire up the barbecue. When it’s time for bed, you’ll find a luxurious bed waiting to cradle you into a restful night’s sleep.

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

Watch the glorious sunset over the Tuscan countryside and beautiful Lucca from the terrace of this romantic apartment. Or enjoy a candlelit supper of acquacotta, surrounded by lush greenery and twinkling lights – we adore the outside space here. Inside, there are character features aplenty, thanks to its farmhouse heritage. Think wooden beams, terracotta floor tiles and a large elegant fireplace. Another highlight is the bedroom, with its large painting and views over the Tuscan countryside.

Lucca and its many attractions, such as the Guinigi Tower and the Puccini Museum, are a few miles away. Or the village of Tofori is nearby, while if you like gardens, the Giardino di Villa Garzoni is a must-see.

If you’re looking for a relaxing escape in Tuscany, then this renovated stone house is sure to fit the bill. Not only does this home have amazing valley views, but there’s an outdoor pool and terrace as well as an indoor swimming pool and sauna. The living space and kitchen are packed with character features such as beams. And the bedrooms have more wonderful vistas of the Tuscan countryside and the towns of the Svizzera Pesciatina, such as Sorana which can easily be explored. Other places worth visiting within driving distance include Montecarlo, Montecatini Alto and Lucca.

Whereas most homes give you a single terrace if you're lucky, this Tuscan property spoils you with outdoor spaces. As well as a lounge given some shade by a large parasol, there's also a separate deck with an alfresco dining table and a stone barbecue, plus another area that holds a swimming pool.

Although we're betting you'll be spending most of your time in the open air, the interior is also pleasing to the eye as well. Through the arched doorways, guests will be greeted by a rustic interior, complete with cooling tiles on the floor, patterned walls in the kitchen and lots of botanical-themed artwork dotted about the place.

The local village of Vellano can be reached in around ten minutes' stroll and has a couple of restaurants for when you get peckish. Further afield, there are Tuscan towns that can be reached in under an hour's drive, such as Montecatini Terme, Lucca and Pistoia. If you're up for a slightly longer journey, Florence is only an hour and twenty minutes' drive from the home.

Nice to haves

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. 

Vineyard Dream

This rural palace, tucked away in a quiet hamlet half an hour from Lucca, is like two homes in one. Such is the contacting styles between the authentic basement and the modern luxury of the ground floor, you'll feel like you've wandered into a new home. 

The idyllic outdoor space is the perfect blend of the two, providing a rustic vibe tinged with deluxe furnishings. Where you spend most of your time depends on your mood and the weather. 

During sunny, summer days, while away the hours in the dreamy space around the pool. Tropical plant life faces into fresh water, creating an exotic oasis, kissed by the summer rays. 

When the months turn cold and you fancy a snug setting, the basement is a restful haven. Rustic, wooden furniture is encompassed by stone walls and a tiled floor. It's an intimate spot to gather for meal times, sharing homemade spaghetti in your secret bunker.

If you fancied exploring beyond your tranquil abode, the cobbled streets of Lucca are just half an hour away. Find cute cafes, vintage wine stores and traditional restaurants.

This magnificent sixteenth-century villa, set amidst the green countryside, under the Tuscan sun, is a dream spot for a large family get together, or an escape for a group of friends. 

Opulence is the name of the game here, and we were immediately seduced by this home’s charm. Firstly, its setting is truly idyllic, with stunning vistas of rolling green hills, punctuated by dark and majestic cypress trees. Evenings are particularly enchanting, and you’ll no doubt find yourself organising elegant suppers and aperitivos, with the glow of the setting sun as your backdrop. The covered, outdoor dining area invites those communal feasts, with the laid-back, dolce-far-niente vibe. In the heat of the afternoon sun, you can cool yourself in the lovely swimming pool, and work on your tan on one of the sun loungers dotted around. 

The inside of the villa is a stunning mélange of classic Italian style with modern comfort. We love the incredible attention to detail with which the interior has been decorated, and you’ll find yourself wandering around these rooms, admiring the art and the unique pieces scattered about. There is more than enough space to lounge about, with comfy sofas and chairs, and you can also enjoy sumptuous indoor feasts in the large dining room. 

The luxurious feeling continues into the bedrooms, which are plush, spacious, and stylishly decorated, with comfy beds carrying the promise of restful sleep. 
Wake up to the sound of the birds outside, and plan your day of exploring the countryside while enjoying a cup of freshly brewed Italian coffee on your terrace. 


Mascarpone

If you’re looking for local immersion in a quintessentially Tuscan home, you've found it. Once the lowly hayloft of a country retreat for nobles, it’s been elevated to something wonderful. It’s rustic – think exposed brick, cooling stone floors and original wood beams – but with the kind of luxe touches that wouldn’t look out of place in a Renaissance townhouse. We love the juxtaposition of homely vibes with ornate flourishes. Who knew chandeliers could look so good in a barn? Set on a private estate, with lush gardens all around, the owners are your only neighbours. Signora Rosa will welcome you with open arms (and maybe even a slice of homemade torta), and the whole family is on hand to help, while also respecting your privacy. There are two complimentary bicycles available for guests, making the five-minute walk to the local town even quicker. Here you can pick up groceries to cook up an alfresco feast; you’ll want to make use of the pretty, shaded outdoor dining area with views over the immaculate grounds. There’s even a wood-fired pizza oven, so you’d better start practising your dough spinning. We’d happily hole up in this place for a week or two, but with a car, it’s the perfect base for exploring Tuscany. 

Homespun Renaissance

Not only does this villa come with the most heavenly outdoor space, but it's rich with 16th-century character and country elegance. It's set at the top of a hill with awe-inspiring views, best appreciated from the heated indoor jetted pool or through the grand windows. Wake up in regal bedrooms that exude vintage, country-style luxury and throw open the lofty French windows and doors for views of the rolling hills all around you. After breakfast in one of the many glamorous dining areas, have a soak or a sweat in your private spa, sauna and gym before heading to the spectacular outdoor swimming pool. Sunny days will pass in a blur of lounging, chatting and snacking on produce from local stores, while evenings are destined for homemade pizza in the wood oven, drinking local wine and living la dolce vita in your paradisiacal surrounds. If you can tear yourself away from this dream home, we recommend taking a drive to the village of Collodi with its Pinocchio’s Park – Collodi is the hometown of the writer that created the character. The medieval city of Lucca is also a short drive away, offering incredible architecture, food and rich history.

Apollo's Seat

Shared Pool

Underfloor Heating

With this apartment, you can live the Tuscan dream in this restored 14th-century farmhouse set amid olive groves in the hills above Lucca. Okay, the pool is communal, so you’ll be sharing this idyll with other guests. But the views looking up to the medieval village of San Gennaro are beautiful and more than make up for this. The apartment itself is on the upper floor, so benefits from views over the Tuscan countryside. The bathrooms are a little dated perhaps, but the rest of the home has a cosy, traditional feel. When you fancy exploring, nearby Lucca has a whole host of treasures to discover or take a twenty-minute hike up the hill to San Gennaro.

Bells of San Gennaro

Umbrellas

This magnificent yellow house sits in the rolling countryside between Lucca and Tuscany, offering incredible views of this lush, green part of Italy. The home is elegant and unique, with ceiling frescoes in the bedrooms and even a consecrated chapel in the grounds – this would be a magical setting for a wedding. 

Special events aside, this is a wonderful holiday home whether you’re travelling with friends or family. There’s plenty of room, including a spacious traditional kitchen – why not hire a private chef and enjoy an alfresco feast on the terrace? The outdoor space is marvellous, set over several terraced levels. The result is incredible views of the Tuscan countryside from every angle. The swimming pool is sheltered from view by a row of trees on one side, and open to sweeping views on the other – it’s glorious at any time of day, but we’re particularly fond of a sunset swim. 

The villa is only a thirty-minute drive from Lucca, and within easy reach of Florence too – the train to Florence takes an hour and eleven minutes. Spend a morning in Lucca admiring the architecture from a picturesque square, then stroll around the medieval centre with a gelato. For some top-notch relaxation, we recommend driving fourteen minutes to Montecatini Terme. This gem of a town boasts nine thermal spas housed in historic buildings – it feels like stepping back in time in the best way. 

There’s so much to see and do in this beautiful part of Italy, and this spectacular home is the ideal base from which to explore. When you’ve taken in all the sights you can manage, recline on the terrace with a glass of Chianti. Bliss. 


You Are My Sunshine

Ping Pong Table

Mosquito Net

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  

In the hills east of Lucca, this luxury villa promises an unforgettable stay. Outside, a panoramic terrace and a seasonal swimming pool invite you to lounge in the Tuscan sun all day. More surprises await indoors, our favourite being the spa area with a Finnish sauna, steam bath, and multi-sensory hydrotherapy shower. The decor is timeless and elegant, mixing classic Italian design with contemporary touches. Seven comfortable bedrooms mean you'll have plenty of room to spread out. For an upscale getaway in the heart of Tuscany, you can't go wrong.

Timeless Delights

Boasting noble origins and surrounded by 10 hectares of land, this villa guarantees a stay to remember. Inside, you'll find 19th-century antiques and ceiling frescoes – and while this may not appeal to the modernists among you, the place has that quintessential Tuscan charm that we can’t get enough of. Taking advantage of the glorious weather couldn’t be easier thanks to the alfresco dining terrace and seating area, and when you need to cool off, there’s a private pool. Location-wise, Montecatini Terme is within easy driving distance, but if you fancy exploring further afield, Pisa is our day-trip destination of choice.

Tuscany Oasis

Ceiling Fans

This Italian home boasts panoramic views of the Pistoia hills from the poolside. Comprising a main house and barn rented as one, you’ll have four living rooms to spill out into here. With a pool table, table football, and archery, there’s plenty to keep the kids happy, and outdoor meals will be easy thanks to two alfresco dining tables, a barbecue, and an outdoor oven. The layout here won’t suit everyone – the home is spread over several floors and one of the staircases is open – and the traditional decor won’t be to everyone’s tastes, but it’s a great option for those seeking a house with personality. Location-wise, you’re in the village of Massa e Cozzile, with Lucca, Pisa, and Versilia within driving distance for day trips. 

Home and Garden

Just a short drive from Lucca, this traditional farmhouse opens its doors to the simple pleasures of Italian living. Consisting of a main house and an adjoining hayloft (with its own kitchen) which also has A/C, this is a great option for groups in search of peace, privacy and a beautiful setting. The private pool is ideal for afternoon dips, and there's a large garden and plenty to explore in the surroundings. Outside you can follow hiking trails straight from the door, while cities like Pisa and Florence are also within driving distance. 



Beauty of Tuscany 

EV Charger

In the hills between Lucca and Florence, this homely apartment is the perfect spot for an Italian holiday. Butter yellow walls and sheer white curtains that let the sun shine through make the bedrooms a cheerful place to wake up. Have some breakfast on the terrace to take in sprawling views of Tuscany’s rolling hills, before heading down to spend the day in the lush garden. Swim a few laps of the shared pool, or just relax under the pergola, surrounded by olive groves and grapevines. In the evening, head back to your cosy abode, where wooden ceiling beams, exposed stone walls and antique furnishings lend an old-world charm – there's even a classic cherub fresco in the main bedroom. To end the day, open a bottle of local wine and have a family-style meal in the kitchen, where a six-seater dining table ensures there’s plenty of space for sous-chefs to hang out. 

Sunflowers and Grapevines

Prepare to be in awe as you step inside this majestic Renaissance villa. Dating back to the 1600s, every detail of this home evokes the timeless magic of Tuscany. You’ll be surrounded by vineyards and meticulously manicured gardens. There’s a swimming pool and a Jacuzzi as well as an expansive terrace for unforgettable evenings meals under the stars. Inside, there’s a historic wine cellar, elegant rooms, a gym, traditional kitchens and authentic fireplaces for cosy winter days. You will need a car to get around here, but it’s just a short drive to Lucca, while iconic destinations like Florence, Pisa and San Gimignano are all within driving distance. 

Let the Love in

Heated Pool

Safe

Blessed with an isolated spot in the Tuscan hills, there's something rather tranquil about this home and you're sure to find it easy to relax, whether you're splashing about in the swimming pool, cooking up dinner in the summer kitchen or simply admiring the beautiful views.

There's a lot to like about the home itself, too. Dating back to the 17th century and spending much of its life as a farmhouse, the living quarters are understandably a little traditional – note the stone archways, wooden ceiling beams and terracotta tiling underfoot. There are some more contemporary aspects though, including the recently renovated kitchen and Jacuzzi bathtub.

When it comes to getting to know Tuscany a little better, the town of Montecatini Terme is only 10km and has nine thermal spas to visit. A little further afield, the Renaissance-era architecture of Lucca is 30km away, while Viareggio's beach is 55km from the home – close enough for a day trip or two, we'd say.

A Little Bit of Me-Time

Buzzer / Wireless Intercom

Breakfast Included

First Aid Kit

This charming apartment is located in perfect tranquillity inside a converted ancient palace, where the environment has been impeccably refurbished whilst respecting the original structure. We love how much greenery surrounds this home, and how it can make you appreciate the simple things in life as you take a long walk through the flora, breathing in the fresh air and listening to the bird's chirp. The wooden beams definitely give this home the character it deserves, as do the shutters that can be opened to let in light as you gaze out over the trees of an ancient noble villa.
 
When you want to be a part of the city's hustle and bustle, take the sixteen-minute drive to Lucca and bike along the city walls, losing yourself in the history of what would've been, before indulging in some retail therapy in the Old Town. Admire Piazza dell'Anfiteatro, a magnificent square constructed on the ruins of the ancient Roman amphitheatre that spreads a mix of historical beauty and true Italian flavour – stop for a bite to eat in the courtyard with innumerable cafes and restaurants.


Upon the Pathway

Fit for royalty, this beautiful home sits in an estate once owned by Elisa Bonaparte, the former princess of Lucca and sister of Napoleon. It boasts panoramic views of the Tuscan countryside and a lush garden. You’ll have a pool with a Jacuzzi corner to unwind in, and if you fancy stretching your legs, you can set off on walking trails amid the vineyards. We love the Tuscan charm of the villa, with its beamed ceilings and terracotta floors – though there are plenty of modern amenities to ensure that your stay is a comfortable one, including a sauna. 


The Royal Estate

This dreamy Tuscan home is special. It boasts original details dating back to the 17th century, with a traditional farmhouse aesthetic blended with modern features – and views to die for. The terrace runs along the front of the house, offering various charming spots for sunbathing, dining alfresco, and splashing about in the petite private pool. We adore the authentic Tuscan feel here, with its stone walls, lush greenery, and beams inside. There’s a rustic elegance that makes this villa memorable for all the right reasons. 

Little Red Hen

Surrounded by olive-dappled hills, this Tuscan home – just a five-minute drive from Pescia – is a green oasis of calm. Housed in an old stone farmhouse, it’s full of rustic charm and traditional character, from its beamed ceilings to its tiled floor and wood-burning stove in the kitchen. 

Wake up in the canopy bed to sunlight pouring through the large windows. Then enjoy your morning coffee on the terrace before heading to the pool for an afternoon of pure relaxation. When you’re not refreshing yourself in the pool’s cool waters, stroll around the lush grounds or drive to Pescia, also known as the 'Capital of Flowers'. 

With thermal baths in Montecatini Terme just twenty minutes away by car and Collodi’s Villa Garzoni Garden and Butterfly House a fifteen-minute drive away, there’s plenty to see and do. After a day of relaxing and sightseeing, come back home for cocktails in the garden followed by an intimate al fresco barbecue.

Oasi Verde

Hot Tub

Parking On Premises

Nestled between Lucca and Florence, this resorted villa will immediately make you feel at home. We love the contemporary kitchen, where family feasts will be lovingly prepared with the freshest Italian ingredients. The bedrooms offer a peaceful spot away from the group, and each has its own en-suite for ultimate convenience. However, there's no denying that the real pièce de résistance is the outdoor space. The garden is dotted with olive trees and fun-filled activities for little ones, while the swimming pool calls for an afternoon dip. Topping it off is the six-seater hot tub overlooking the vineyard – pure bliss.

Beyond the Vine

Playstation

Games Console

Private Dryer

The thoughtful restoration of two farmhouses brought this beautiful villa to life. Encircled by forests, olive groves, flowerbeds, and manicured hedges, it’s the picture of a Tuscan countryside home. From the bedrooms to the poolside loungers, the lush, green views will follow.

Stepping inside, you’ll find a charming interior that’s perfectly set up for family getaways. It’s welcoming and homely, with distinctly Tuscan touches that set the tone for a special stay. But we imagine you’ll be spending most of your time in the garden. Let the blissful hours roll by while you sip coffee beneath the fairytale-like pergola, take long swims in the pool, get lost in a good book, and explore the gorgeous gardens.

By night, the green and blue landscape comes alight with gold, the warm-toned solar lights casting a regal glow across the home. Prepare zingy salads in the farmhouse-style kitchen and get the barbecue going for a grilled feast, before tucking in alfresco beneath the sloping canopy. 

When it’s time to explore, the historic town of Lucca is just 5 miles away. Walk along the famous walls, take a bike ride through its hills, explore the many piazzas, and pop into elegant galleries. 

Be Enchanted

Surrounded by the rolling green hills of the Valdinievole, this imposing villa has been fully restored to offer the perfect mix of period character, classical elegance and modern convenience. Standing in newly landscaped grounds, it's the perfect picture of a Tuscan villa – with white walls, terracotta tiles and tall cypress trees. And we love the tower room that tops it all off with its arched windows.

Inside, the space is beautifully decorated with bold colours and frescoes. Exposed beamed ceilings and wood floors to many of the rooms add charm, while a practical, modern kitchen comes with all the equipment you could need to cook at home and the bathrooms are all stylish and individual. The living room has a particularly cosy feel, with a fireplace for winter escapes and striking red walls. A similar room on the top floor serves as a second lounge and has a sofa bed for two guests – ideal for children.

Spend your days by the private pool, which boasts incredible views, or drive less than ten minutes into the town and its famous spas. And for a day out, it's easy to drive to any of the area's main attractions – Florence, Pistoia, Lucca and Pisa. 

Verde Vista

Tranquil doesn’t even begin to describe this wonderful apartment. It’s tucked away in the hills above Bagni di Lucca, in a tiny village that’s quiet even in the height of summer. You’ll share the grounds and outdoor pool with four villas, but there’s plenty of space. Stunning views can be admired from almost every angle here, with far-reaching vistas of the surrounding hills and forests. The apartment is rustic in style, with exposed stone walls and terracotta floor tiles. It’s the perfect retreat for a romantic getaway. 

Italian Stone

Immersed in the natural beauty of Tuscany, this home invites you to kick off your shoes and embrace the magic of Italian living. Outside, you can enjoy peaceful days by the private pool. There’s a shaded gazebo and a barbecue for alfresco dining, while the indoor bar sets the tone for celebratory gatherings. Special events can be held here and there are a range of extra services available for an additional fee. Plus, you’ll be treated to luxurious amenities and cosy bedrooms – one of which is located in an independent annexe. You will need a car to get around here, but it’s a great base for exploring Tuscany – Pistoia and Lucca are both within driving distance. 

Song of Love

Looking for a little slice of Tuscany all to yourself? Allora, here it is. This beautiful Tuscan farmhouse splits the hillside in two, surrounding itself with greenery on all fronts. Get your vitamin D on one of several terraces dotted around the old stone walls, before cooling off in the glorious infinity pool with views over the verdant valley below. Poolside there’s your very own infrared sauna and an undercover (shh) hidden grotto that doubles up as a massive hot tub. You can keep up the alfresco living come evening on the covered dining terrace with its waney-edged wooden table and mountain views. This area is a fresh air extension of the timber and stone-built interior, where natural materials are complemented by subtley luxurious furnishings. Despite feeling utterly remote, you’re just a 10-minute drive from the centre of Pescia, with its ancient streets full of shops and restaurants. Travel a bit further afield and bike on the old fortress walls of Lucca, or sprawl out on one of Tuscany’s gorgeous beaches. 

Under the Rose

This traditional stone villa surrounded by olive groves and vineyards is where to go if you want to embrace la dolce vita. Not only are the rural surroundings rather easy on the eye, but there's a dazzling array of amenities to be found at the address that'll make your stay unforgettable.

When it comes to enjoying the region's famously agreeable climate, you're spoilt for choice. There are almost enough alfresco dining tables to sit somewhere different for every meal of your stay and there's both a pizza oven and barbecue to whip up lavish feasts. To work up an appetite, head over to one of the two swimming pools – one in the middle of the verdant grounds and the other hidden away among stone walls and vaulted ceilings on the home's lower floors. The hot tub on the terrace adds another welcome option.

Inside, there's a traditional flavour to the home, with wooden ceiling beams and exposed patches of stonework lending a rustic charm. At the same time, chandeliers in many of the rooms and gilded mirrors bring a sprinkling of glamour to proceedings, too. We defy anybody not to be wowed by the regal bedrooms, as well.

In the local area, carefree days can be spent walking through the Tuscan countryside and stopping off at pretty villages. There are larger cities well within reach, too – Lucca is only 11km to the east, for example, and Pisa is 28km away.

A Touch of the Extraordinary

Exercise Equipment

Perched on the rolling Tuscan hills outside the Medieval city of Lucca sits this grandiose home – a memory of a bygone age of Italian opulence. The breathtaking gardens are a particular highlight of the home, with the well-tended green grass lawns surrounded by Mediterranean herb bushes, cypress and cedar trees, and various specimens of exotic palm trees. Enjoy an afternoon cocktail, sitting in the sunshine in one of the wicker armchairs, or challenge a friend to a game of table tennis on the lawn. Alternatively, sit down with the family to enjoy an alfresco meal around the shaded outdoor dinner table, perhaps with food cooked on the mobile barbecue. Take a dip in the pool to cool off from the midday Tuscan sun. Inside the villa, the theme of elegant opulence continues with the beautiful living room, and four unique bedrooms. The master bedroom even boasts an en-suite bathroom with both a shower and a jacuzzi jet bath for unwinding and relaxing after a day of seeing the sights. In the kitchen, the traditional wood-fired oven is perfect for cooking handmade pizza. Finally, there's a children’s playroom for the little ones, as well as a home gym with a running treadmill and a weights bench to keep in shape.

Cedar Serenity

If you’re a wine connoisseur, then this elegant Tuscan home, set on a winery, could be for you. There are beautiful views over the private vineyards and countryside from the infinity swimming pool. Inside, we love the conservatory – the perfect place to dine under the stars. The main bedroom suite is another highlight of this home, as you can see. You may not want to leave this luxurious farmhouse, but if you do there are many charming towns nearby to explore – we’d recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay.

Tuscan Winery

In the beautiful Tuscan countryside outside Lucca (a twenty-minute drive away), this villa epitomises la dolce vita. From your vantage point atop a verdant hill, you can gaze out over vineyards and olive groves – explore the local area by car for tastings at local wineries and olive farms. Perhaps bring back some spoils for a spot of aperitivo on the terrace. There are plenty of patios, balconies and shaded leafy nooks to choose from in the garden. Day beds and loungers line the poolside and the view from here, over the misty Tuscan hills all the way to Lucca, is particularly magnificent at sunset. 

The villa itself is a traditional medley of thick stone walls and a terracotta roof; just like the Tuscan farmhouses of old. The decor leans into the rustic vibe with wooden ceilings and stone walls on display, alongside ancient stone hearths in the living room and dining room. A mish-mash of dark wood antique furniture and floral sofas feel straight from the 19th century and a brickwork floor keeps things cool underfoot. Bedrooms are a delight to wake up to, with panoramic countryside views from the wood-shuttered windows. 

Vines & Olive Trees

With hosts who actually produce their own virgin olive oil, this stately villa simply radiates authenticity. The home is comprised of three individual stone cottages perched on the Tuscan hillside, located in the pretty village of Ciciana. You’ll be surrounded by the vast, untouched countryside – hiking trails nearby will acquaint you with local farm animals and horses. At the centre of the home is a pristine saltwater infinity pool, benefitting from panoramic views of the surrounding green plains and the medieval town of Lucca below. This home encourages outdoor living, with charming dining areas dotted around the garden – our favourite being the idyllic little lavender-draped corner, boasting stunning views down the hill. Dine al fresco long into the balmy summer evenings with a much larger eating space on the shaded terrace, equipped with reclining wooden chairs, an outdoor kitchen, and a barbecue. Tear apart the focaccia and devour a chilled glass of vino, socialising and playing games while the meat sizzles away. When you’re not indulging in the local delicacies, explore the cobblestone streets of Lucca at your feet, just a short drive down.

A Dash Of Olive Oil

On the outskirts of Lucca, hidden in the Tuscan hills, this villa is the perfect place for a tranquil break with family or friends. The main villa dates back to the 18th century but has been renovated to accommodate modern amenities, without losing its historic charm. Original wooden beams are present in each room and there are plenty of places to unwind, whether you want to curl up in front of the fireplace or settle down in the lounge set outside. We bet you'll spend most of your time in the gardens, swimming in the pool or just sunbathing while admiring the views over the surrounding countryside. The adjoining building makes this home ideal for two sets of families, though both buildings share the gardens where you can gather during the day. It's just a 30-minute drive into historic Lucca, making it a perfect day trip. Wander the medieval city walls and explore the elegant squares, making sure to stock up on local produce from a market. Back at your villa, set the table outside for an Italian feast, and settle back with a glass of wine as the sun sets over the hills. 

Madame Butterfly

Sitting pretty in the Tuscan Hills, this charmingly rustic villa offers a glimpse at what feels like a traditional Italian home – think ceiling beams, exposed brick walls and a sweet little kitchen that has just the things you need. The brightly coloured walls will add energy and Italian-style verve to your day, while the views make getting out of bed each morning a treat. The gardens are lush and sprawling and provide plenty of space to roam about or play games. Come evening, be sure to light up the barbecue, enjoy a few poolside drinks and end with a drawn-out dinner on the terrace.

Terracotta Paintbrush

Stylish and sophisticated, this apartment is a comfortable base for friends and families. It's got all the essentials you'll need – a well-appointed kitchen, two cosy bedrooms, and two convenient bathrooms. Speaking of convenience, the location is a big plus. Right in the heart of Montecarlo, you'll be treated to sweeping views of rolling hills and the area's vineyards. The charming main street is right on your doorstep – as is a prestigious Michelin-starred restaurant. Lucca is slightly further afield, yet still within easy driving distance – perfect for a day trip.
