Woodland Borgo

Step back in time at this medieval hamlet set within dense woodland, overlooking the Val di Chiana. Between the ancient watchtower and traditional Tuscan interiors – think wooden beams, stone floors and antique furnishings – you'll feel as if you've entered another era. Bedrooms are split between the main house and an annex, with an additional living space in a second annex, giving everyone plenty of room to stretch out. Days are best spent wandering through the olive groves, picnicking beneath the trees, or lounging by the swimming pool. Location-wise, you're deep in the Tuscan countryside here, surrounded by wineries and hilltop villages famed for their historic sights and cuisine.

Home truths:
*Bedrooms are split between the main house and an annex. A second annex features an additional living room and bathroom.

*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.

*Due to this home's rural location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay.
