Not only are the rural surroundings rather easy on the eye, but there's a dazzling array of amenities to be found at the address that'll make your stay unforgettable. When it comes to enjoying the region's famously agreeable climate, you're spoilt for choice. There are almost enough alfresco dining tables to sit somewhere different for every meal of your stay and there's both a pizza oven and barbecue to whip up lavish feasts. To work up an appetite, head over to one of the two swimming pools – one in the middle of the verdant grounds and the other hidden away among stone walls and vaulted ceilings on the home's lower floors. The hot tub on the terrace adds another welcome option. Inside, there's a traditional flavour to the home, with wooden ceiling beams and exposed patches of stonework lending a rustic charm.
