Breathtaking views, a private pool and a wonderful sense of tradition – this home sets the tone for a magical stay in Tuscany. Outside, you can soak it all in from the terrace or while sipping drinks in the pool house. There’s also an indoor bar, a professional kitchen, a cosy living room with a piano and five thoughtfully designed bedrooms. It might be hard to leave this sanctuary, but it’s just a short drive to the medieval village of San Miniato, while Florence and Lucca are also within driving distance. 

The White Sun

Nestled in the Tuscan countryside, this pet-friendly villa offers a peaceful retreat into nature. Inside, it’s bright and homely with two double bedrooms and three triples – ideal for families. The large, fenced garden encloses a private swimming pool, shaded spots for dining alfresco, swings, and a table tennis setup. Fancy sampling some local produce? The main farmhouse hosts dining experiences by reservation. And when you’re ready for a change of pace, Pisa is just forty-five minutes away and Florence only an hour.

Fine Tuscany

Enjoying a panoramic position in the rolling Tuscan hills, this traditional villa is surrounded by beautiful countryside. Having undergone careful restoration, many of this home's original features are still intact, so you can expect terracotta floor tiles, vaulted ceilings and a working fireplace. Head up the stairs to the mezzanine level and you'll find a cosy living room beneath rustic wooden beams. Outside, you'll have your own private garden, complete with a pretty patio where you can sip coffee and enjoy a home-cooked breakfast. Spend the day chilling out by the infinity pool or jump in the car and head out to explore, the choice is yours.

A trip to Montelupo Fiorentino is highly recommended. The Medieval hilltop town has an air of old-world ambiance, thanks to castles and churches that date back to the Middle Ages. Wander around the colourful streets lined with pastel-stuccoed buildings or pay a visit to the archeological museum to learn more about the area's rich past.

When you get home after a busy day, fire up the barbecue and tuck into an alfresco feast on the patio. Be sure to pick up a bottle of local wine (Montelupo is known for its quality Chianti wine) and then jump in the hot tub to relax and watch a spectacular Tuscan sunset. 

Tuscan Craft

Picture this scene: olive trees sway in the breeze as you stretch out on a sun lounger beneath a towering cream parasol. You’ve just enjoyed a delicious lunch of fresh tomatoes, bread, mozzarella and cured meats (with plenty of wine, of course), and now your biggest dilemma is when exactly to jump into the glittering pool for that leisurely swim. It sounds like a dream, but it’s a day in the life at this Tuscan villa, nestled on a hill within easy reach of Florence, Pisa and Siena. Set over two floors with elegant, traditional detailing (think terracotta floors, exposed wooden beams, stone arches, and a beautiful sandstone fireplace), this home is a spectacular stay for a family holiday. There’s a pool table, expansive lawn, playground, and inviting L-shaped pool, not to mention plenty of alfresco dining areas. Fire up the grill and admire the lush Mediterranean garden as the colors of the day shift to warmer hues. Don’t get too relaxed though, there’s a rematch at the pool table after dinner. 

Bella Vita

Perfect for family gatherings, this home is nestled between Florence and Pisa, just outside the village of Palaia. Surrounded by green hills and rolling Tuscan countryside, you'll be treated to fantastic views and plenty of space to roam. It consists of a main villa and a separate two-bedroom annexe ideal for teens or older relatives. Despite its traditional style, the interiors are cosy, although the garden is certainly the highlight. The seasonal pool takes centre stage, while the terrace has ample room for dining alfresco. If you're after a typical Tuscan pad emphasising outdoor living, this is just the ticket.

Palaia Paradise

This home is a haven of tranquillity in Tuscany. It’s surrounded by vineyards, olive groves, and forested hills, with beautiful valley views at every turn thanks to its hilltop setting. The villa – comprising two apartments – has been thoughtfully restored to bring together traditional Tuscan charm, character, and modern convenience. Look forward to original terracotta floors and exposed wood beams inside, and a beautiful swimming pool outside. Ask your host to arrange a private chef and enjoy alfresco feasts on the terrace. 

Tuscany Terracotta

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

White Whale

Pack your bags and make your way to this beautiful hideaway in the San Miniato region in Italy. Enter through the gates and up the grand, stone-paved driveway to a peach-orange typically Tuscan villa with wooden shutters. You’ll immediately want to drop everything to explore the green expanse, jump straight into the infinity pool and stretch out to catch some rays on the plush outdoor armchairs. High-beamed ceilings, arched entryways, terracotta floors and tiled bathrooms give the sense of traditional Italy. This is the kind of home where chandeliers light the formal dining room, baths come with claw feet, and fireplaces are crowned with antique trinkets. This is the perfect opportunity to try your hand at pizza making with the kitchen’s wood-burning oven, and there’s an old-fashioned pasta maker in the alcove for an Italian feast like nonna used to make. Show off your culinary skills as you gather around for a meal at the long, wooden table under the shaded terrace, where views over the rolling Tuscan countryside pair perfectly with a bottle of local red.

Tales of Tuscany

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

Tuscan Grove

Fusing Tuscan charm with contemporary design, this apartment nestled in a resort makes a fantastic base in the countryside. It's minimal, modern, and, most importantly, flooded with natural light. Pad out to the private terrace for drinks in the sunshine or stroll through the communal gardens to reach the shared swimming pool. Further afield, the towns of San Gimignano and Volterra provide plenty of opportunities for sightseeing, while the beaches of the Etruscan Coast are easily reachable within an hour's drive.

Stone & Linen

Nestled among the vineyards and olive groves of Chianti, this canary-hued 13th-century villa offers sweeping views as far as San Gimignano. Once a noble hunting lodge, it’s been lovingly restored with vaulted ceilings, terracotta floors and gilded paintings – plus modern comforts like air conditioning and daily maid service. One bedroom is named after Julia Roberts, a former guest, but the standout is the tower room with its own rooftop terrace. Outside, lush gardens surround a private pool and shaded terraces perfect for summer lunches. You’re on a working estate with wine, olive oil and honey for sale. And with Florence, Siena and hilltop villages all within easy reach, this is your gateway to the best of Tuscany.

Lady Julia

Tuscan living at its finest, this home has generations of family life at its core. The owner's relatives were sharecroppers, and what once was a farmhouse is now a contemporary sanctuary steeped in character and charm. Our favourite spot is the grand living area – with its wooden beams, large windows and breezy layout, it's the perfect place to come together. The garden boasts even more spots for unwinding, as well as a private pool with views of the surrounding hills. Whether you're splashing in the water, dining alfresco, or taking a day trip to nearby Lucca, we think this home offers the perfect backdrop for your stay.
