With grand hallways and ancient features dating back to 1300, this stately Tuscan villa caught our eye for its historic charm. Split over four levels, the house itself can easily host a large group, making it ideal for family getaways. Plus, the tower has been converted into a suite – perfect for a couple seeking a little privacy. When you aren’t taking day trips to Florence or exploring Impruneta, head down to the basement for wine tasting in the cellar, a relaxing sauna session or a workout in the gym.

Host
This home is managed by Oliver
This home is managed directly by a business. A member of their staff will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Nearly twenty years ago, Oliver and his friend began curating the world's most unique and rustic getaways. Driven by their own unforgettable experience at a chateau, they have grown remarkably since then. Much like Plum, they believe in hand-picked luxury that doesn't break the bank.
