Halfway between Arezzo and Siena, this 18th-century farmhouse makes a fantastic base for exploring Tuscany. The garden will surely be a hit, featuring a private pool (open seasonally), a loggia with a brick barbecue, and a terrace where you can tuck into alfresco meals – not to mention plenty of lawn space where kids and pets can let off some steam. Inside, though dated, certainly doesn't lack charm. We love all the character features, from the timber beams on the ceiling down to the terracotta floors. With seven en-suite bedrooms (including two on the ground floor), it’s a great option for extended families and large friend groups.

About Val di Chiani
Situated in the southeast of Tuscany, stretching all the way from Arezzo to the province of Orvieto in Umbria, Val di Chiani is a patchwork of olive groves, grassy plains and thick forests. Ochre villages and towns fleck the landscape – Montepulciano is a particular favourite, famed for its Vino Nobile wine that pairs perfectly with a plate of Tuscan wild boar pasta.
