Spend your days being cradled by the nurturing Tuscan heat at this charming home less than an hour from Florance. Surrounded by olive trees and the region's famous undulating hills, you can properly switch off once you arrive at this traditional apartment. Fall in love with the original features, be it the thick wooden ceiling beams or the patches of exposed stone on the walls. Before you know it, living la dolce vita in this simple Italian setting will be second nature. When you're not luxuriating in the shared swimming pool or reclining on the terrace, challenge your fellow guests to a round of foosball on the shaded veranda. There's also a boules court, ideal for those who prefer a slower-paced sport that lets you soak up the sunshine as you play. Come evening, retreat into the sauna for a pre-dinner unwind, then gather around the dining table for a delicious sampling of the local produce. Buon appetito.
