Rolling & Sweeping Lucignano, Tuscany

Property Description

This grand palace stands proud at the top of one of Tuscany's rolling hills, and affords one of the most beautiful sweeping views in the region. It's an authentic taste of the true Tuscan experience.

When you're sitting by the pool on the sun beds, refreshed by a glass of something cold, you'll feel like the only people in Tuscany. The only sounds you'll hear are the gentle breeze flowing through the leaves and the birds singing in the sky.

If you're visiting during the colder months of autumn and winter, the home caters to your every need. A quaint living is formed of low-vaulted ceilings and exposed wooden beams, facing down on voguish furniture.

The aesthetic of the kitchen exudes a more contemporary vibe – deluxe fittings and high-quality equipment bring us into the modern day, though a rustic dining table resembles traditional Italian style. Gather here for mealtimes, passing round plates of penne and bottles of crisp, white wine.

If the weather is warm enough, you can move into the bricked outhouse in the evenings. Snuggle up on the comfy sofas, sheltered by the rugged walls, and bask in the serenity of your surroundings.
