A truly idyllic escape to rural Tuscany requires rolling hills, a rustic farmhouse and panoramic views across olive groves and vineyards. And you'll have all of this and more at this beautiful home deep in the countryside between Arezzo and Cortona. Surrounded by its own lush, terraced gardens, it's a stone-built gem with flexible accommodation to suit a large group. Packed with character features, you'll be welcomed by tiled floors, ancient wooden beams and traditional shuttered windows. The main house is divided into two apartments, each boasting its own kitchen and cosy living room, and with two bedrooms on each of the two floors. Allowing for as much or as little socialising as you require, there's also a stunning dining room with a table big enough to seat up to ten guests. And it has its own kitchenette to make life easier. Elsewhere in the garden, you'll find an additional one-bed guesthouse with its own bathroom – perfect if you really value your privacy. Spend your days swimming in the private pool on a lower level of the garden and eating outside on the huge terrace, pouring local wine and admiring the incredible views. If you want to do some... shopping, Arezzo is just half an hour away by car, with Cortona and the Valdichiana Outlet Village around the same.
