Picture a villa in Tuscany, and you probably picture something a little like this. There’s a scenic swimming pool surrounded by gorgeous greenery, shaded spots to lounge or share a leisurely lunch, and comfortable rooms full of rustic character. The location is lovely too – nestled in the countryside, not far from the ancient spa village of San Casciano dei Bagni, where the thermal baths have soothed weary travellers for centuries. If winding down is very much on your holiday wish list, this charming home is the perfect place to embrace a slower pace of life – Tuscan style.

Home truths

    Alongside the main villa, there's a separate cottage for hosting staff or extra guests on request. A third building is available to use for cooking classes, food experiences, and private dinners.

    The swimming pool isn't fenced. If you're bringing little ones, they'll need to be supervised at all times.

    Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay.

    There’s free parking for up to ten cars on the driveway.

    Upon request, one well-behaved dog is welcome to accompany you during your stay.

    While not all of the bathrooms are photographed, expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home.
