This charming villa, which is built around a medieval chapel, is the perfect blend of character and comfort. There are still hints of history here, like the carefully-preserved original frescoes in the chapel, alongside all the modern touches you need for a relaxing stay. The rooms are cosy and inviting, with plenty of space to stretch out, but the real highlight of this home is waiting outside. The house is on a hill, so the grounds offer glorious, 360-degree views of the surrounding countryside – views you can soak up while swimming in the pool or lounging in the sunshine. If shopping or sightseeing are on the agenda, jump in the car and discover the delights of Bologna, one of Italy’s most beautiful cities.
