Run away from the pressures of everyday life at this traditional stone farmhouse dating back to the 13th-century. Sitting peacefully atop the Tuscan hills, this home is a picture of quintessential Italian living, with expansive views over the unspoilt Mugello valley, from whichever away you look.

Rustle up some Tuscany treats in the country-style kitchen fitted with elegant marble countertops that will make cooking a breeze. If you don't feel like self-catering, why not take a trip to the majestic Renaissance city of Florence for a bite to eat, just 23 kilometres away.
