Set in a hamlet among vine-covered hills, this home is one of eleven houses, with origins dating back to 1400. There’s a flower and plant-filled private garden and shaded terrace perfect for alfresco meals, while the beautiful large pool is shared – it’s located a short stroll from the home and has incredible views. Inside the cottage, it’s quite traditionally styled, as you’d expect and there’s a fireplace, for when the weather turns cold. With all the wonderful vistas, you may be happy staying put, but that would be a shame, as the charming town of Radda with its narrow cobbled streets, is just a few kilometres away.

Home truths:
*The pool area is a short stroll away from the home and it is shared with ten other properties on the estate.
*The decor here is traditional, so if you like modern, it may not suit you.
*The swimming pool is only available between 15 May and 30 September.
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high for a small fee. You'll need to request them in advance.
*Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. There's communal parking adjacent to this home, but please note the access road is steep, unpaved and uneven, so we recommend a high clearance vehicle and the general area may only appeal to experienced drivers.
