Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Surrounded by lush gardens and typically Tuscan views, this villa is the definition of bliss. It's packed with character – think brick archways, beamed ceilings, and antique furniture. Between the main house and guest annexe, there's plenty of space for all twenty of you to sprawl out, though a couple of the bedrooms sleep three people. Outside, you can gather on the terrace for alfresco meals, laze by the pool with a cocktail, or just sit back and admire the panoramas. Fancy a change of scenery? Hop in the car and head to Bucine, Siena, or Arezzo – they're all within easy driving distance.

Ochre villages and towns fleck the landscape – Montepulciano is a particular favourite, famed for its Vino Nobile wine that pairs perfectly with a plate of Tuscan wild boar pasta.
