Nestled in the rolling Tuscan hills not far from Siena, this six-bedroom villa is packed with rustic character. The timber beams, exposed stonework, and other original features make staying here feel a little like stepping back in time – and we think that adds to the charm of the place. There’s lots of space to get comfortable, whether you’re on a family holiday or group getaway, but our favourite feature has to be the scenic swimming pool. With picturesque views over the surrounding countryside, it’s an extra-special spot to relax in the sunshine, whether you’re swimming leisurely laps or lounging poolside. Bellissimo.

About Siena
The sound of hooves clattering along stone paths, flags flying the crests of ancient contrade, and fierce rivalries that date back hundreds of years – visit Siena during Il Palio to experience one of Italy’s most chaotic yet atmospheric traditions. The Piazza del Campo, where the race ends, is also the focal point of the city – a vast, fan-shaped square towards which everything seems to lead. Around the piazza...
