Stunning countryside views. A lush garden. A swimming pool. Even a private bowls court. This Tuscan mansion sets the scene for la dolce vita. Inside, traditional charm meets a touch of eccentricity – think vaulted ceilings, eclectic furnishings, and unexpected pops of colour. And when it comes to space? There’s more than enough to go around – two kitchens and generous communal areas make it ideal for large groups of friends or family get-togethers. Cortona, Siena and Florence are all within driving distance – though with a base like this, you might be tempted to stay put.
