Set among the rolling hills of Tuscany, this traditional villa is the ideal getaway for a family reunion or large group. Start relaxing on the winding drive up to the home as you take in the native foliage and beautiful vistas. Spread across four floors, there is more than enough room for everyone to unwind in whatever way they see fit – whether that’s in front of the fire in the living space, or by trying to roll out dough for homemade pasta in the kitchen. Head down to the pool for a dip or to sunbathe in the manicured garden, or admire the impeccable job mother nature did from up on the terrace. Out here you can sip wines of the region as you nibble on figs, or dine alfresco, watch the sunrise or sunset as you nurse a fresh cup of coffee or simply sit out late night admiring the beautiful night sky. When you’re not out barbecuing, venture to the nearest restaurant under a mile away. Explore Tuscany and Umbria – the Trasimeno lake is especially beautiful.
