Holiday Rental Description

With a simply dreamy location in the middle of the Tuscan Hills, this villa treats guests to glorious views of verdant countryside and an uninterrupted skyline.

The question that arises, therefore, is from which spot to enjoy this beautiful panorama. The table on the covered balcony is a lovely spot for an alfresco dinner, perhaps cooked on the stone barbecue and pizza oven found on the storey below. If that sounds a little too sedate, you can just as easily enjoy the scenery from the swimming pool complete with a slide, or while playing a few matches on the tennis court.

When you finally head inside, you'll find a home that's rather traditional in style, with a grand fireplace, terracotta tiling underfoot and chandeliers hanging on the ceiling. The villa itself is actually two independent apartments, which offers an extra degree of privacy and flexibility for large groups.

Although the address feels wonderfully isolated, there are plenty of small towns that sit nearby, including Loro Ciuffenna ten minutes' drive away. The cities of Arezzo and Florence take fifty minutes and just over an hour to reach by car respectively, too.

Home truths:
*There's free parking available, although the home is reached by a 900m dirt road that needs to be walked
*Only one of the kitchens is suitable for cooking
*Well-behaved dogs are welcome to accompany you during your stay
*The home is spread over a single floor, but there's a short flight of steps before reaching the door
