Live your own fairytale in this enchanting Italian tower, fit for Rapunzel, in a beguiling and secluded valley setting in Tuscany. Over a thousand years old, this recently restored torre is magical inside too. You can picture Snow White or Cinderella sitting by the ornate fireplace in the rustic living space. Climbing up the stone stairs, we love the bedroom with incredible brick vaulted ceilings and sumptuous antiques – perfect for any sleeping beauty. Outside, have lunch under the pergola in the enthralling gardens full of flowers or take a swim in the inviting swimming pool. If you fancy exploring this fabled region, the medieval village of Lucignano is around a ten-minute drive away. As you wander its narrow streets, you can almost imagine Gepetto carving Pinocchio in one of its old workshops. All sort of treasures await, from sublime frescoes, to the sparkling masterpiece, the Tree of Life, housed in the Museo Comunale di Lucignano. This home and region is ideal for a family or a romantic break – spend some time here and you'll never want this chapter of your story to end.

About Tuscany

Perhaps the first region to come to mind when you think of holidays in Italy, there’s no denying Tuscany’s beauty. The term “Rolling hills” could have been coined here, where grapes ripen on vines in the folds of the valleys and ancient towns crown hilltops.
