Nestled amid Florentine mountains in the pretty town of Reggello, this traditional Tuscan home offers your own slice of the Italian countryside. Boasting a lush green garden full of Mediterranean plants and trees, at this home you can wake up each morning and step out into the fresh air to enjoy the private pool and plush sun loungers. If you're keen to soak up some of the local culture and scenery, take a stroll through the rolling hills or head to one of the nearby villages. Reggello has some iconic landmarks to discover, such as the majestic Sammezzano Castle and its colorful Peacock Room. A trip to Arezzo is also highly recommended, where you can explore hilltop cathedrals, browse high-end boutiques and admire the city's exquisite architecture.

When you return home after a busy day, have some fun in the kitchen and have a go at recreating some of your favourite Italian dishes. Dine alfresco on the patio then share a bottle of local wine as the sun sets. If the weather turns a little chilly, get cosy in the living room in front of the roaring fire.
