Overlooking the Tuscan countryside from its hillside position, this rustic villa boasts some incredible views – best celebrated from the outside dining area and elegant infinity pool. We think it's a great fit for families with a lovely private garden as well as flexible sleeping arrangements – the twin beds can be converted into doubles upon request. Keen cooks will love the modern chef's kitchen for preparing alfresco suppers – though if you feel like dining out, the nearby village of Volpaia and the market town of Radda are both just a short drive away. You will need to hire a car to get around here, and the drive will often be hilly and uneven. *Due to this home's location, you'll need a car to get the most out of your stay. There’s free parking on-site parking. Be prepared for hilly and often uneven roads. *The twin beds can be configured as double if required – you’ll need to request this in advance. *The swimming pool ...
This Tuscan villa offers breathtaking views of the surrounding vineyards from its hilltop position. And while the traditional interiors here may not be everyone’s cup of tea, the multiple living spaces mean there’s always a quiet nook to have some time to yourself. For us, though, the outdoor area really caught our eye. Generous gardens offer plenty of room for little ones to run around and burn off some energy. Meanwhile, the rest of the family can sit poolside, a glass of Chianti in hand, to drink in those vineyard views. *The twin beds cannot be joined up into double beds. *We recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. There's 300m of unpaved road to access this home. *The swimming pool is only available for use between April and October. *While your host accepts children under the age of 7 years, there's an unfenced pool and steep staircase to access the villa. If you're bringing children, they must be ...
Full of charm, we love this home’s history. It’s hard to imagine its olive press past, save for the very obvious reminder in the living area. But to add to its appeal, it’s flexible when it comes to sleeping arrangements, too. With a main house sleeping four and a cottage sleeping two, a stay here affords one couple a bit more privacy, with each home even boasting its own terrace. Ready to mingle? Sink into the warm waters of the hot tub or cool off in the pool, the choice is yours. *This home is made up of the main villa, sleeping four, and a separate cottage, sleeping two. The cottage has a kitchenette but doesn't have an oven and is only suitable for food preparation. *The twin bedroom in the main house can be set up as a double. You'll need to request this at the time of booking. *Well-behaved dogs up to 30kg are welcome to join you for your stay. *If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot an...
Nestled in the heart of Tuscany, this villa offers breathtaking views of the Val d'Elsa. A former barn dating back to 1620, expect to find plenty of character touches inside – we're talking 5-metre high ceilings, wooden beams, and even fossil shells contained in the external walls. Outside, the panoramic terrace is perfect for alfresco wining and dining. There's also a heated pool, where you can float the afternoon away and admire the scenery. Explore nearby medieval towns like San Gimignano, indulge in local delicacies with private chefs and cooking classes – your host can arrange them for a fee – and create unforgettable memories in this Tuscan paradise. *Not all the bedrooms and bathrooms are photographed but expect consistency in quality and style. *Upon request, two single bedrooms in the basement can be available instead of the fourth double bedroom. Your host can also provide a free cot and high chair. *This villa has ...
Once an old stone barn, this villa has been brought back to life and promises a serene stay in the heart of Tuscany. Sure, the traditional interiors may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but you’ll find all the key ingredients for a comfortable stay here. We love the outdoor space, with sun-kissed terraces, a private pool, and far-reaching views across the hills – what more could you want? Location-wise, San Gimignano is a mere stone’s throw away. A visit to this historic town, with its iconic towers, is a must. *There are steps leading up to the front door here and further steps down to the pool area. It might not be the best option for those with reduced mobility. *If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for free. You'll need to request them in advance. *The swimming pool, open from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday in October, isn't fenced. If you're bringing children, t...

A traditional Tuscan farm stay, surrounded by olive groves and truffle country, this stone villa is as practical as it is beautiful. With plenty of space for a large group to spread out, there are three living spaces, each with a kitchen, allowing for added flexibility. Here, the name of the game is relaxation, and it's not hard to do in such a peaceful setting. In a quiet, rural area with incredible views of the lush green hills, you'll have country walks and cycling routes on your doorstep, and pretty grounds to explore – plus it's just a walk through the woods to the nearby village. Inside, two entrances each lead to a living area and kitchen. Traditionally styled and oozing Tuscan charm, you'll have tiled floors, chestnut beams and fireplaces, along with archways and shuttered windows. Each section has a large dining table so you can all eat together and each of the five bedrooms upstairs boasts its own bathroom so nob...
After a day touring world-class vineyards, this home is the perfect place to unwind with a glass of Chianti. Sure, there’s no air conditioning here, and the traditional interiors may not be to everyone’s taste, but there’s no denying the beauty of the outdoor space. And, where better to cool off in the Tuscan heat, than the private pool? If you’re not dining alfresco and soaking up the countryside views, take the short drive to Quercegrossa for some authentic Italian food with the locals. *The owners live next door to the villa and have a dog and a cat, and there's an apartment that they occasionally use for family and guests. The apartment doesn't overlook the villa – it overlooks the pool slightly from a distance – they don't use the swimming pool and won't disturb you during your stay. *There's no air conditioning here. *The swimming pool, open between May and September weather permitting, isn't fenced. Children must be ...
