Sartini

Just outside the charming village of Sarteano, this cosy villa is surrounded by woodland and rolling Tuscan countryside. We love the arched window looking out over the garden – the perfect spot to curl up on a plushy sofa with a good book. To cool down, take a long swim in the pool before drying off for an aperitif on the terrace, just one of the many outdoor lounging areas. Indulge in long lunches under the shade of the greenery before a round of table tennis on the lawn. If you’re looking to add a touch of luxury to your holiday, the spa resorts of Chianciano Terme, Bagno Vignoni, and Bagni San Filippo are just half an hour away. Wine connoisseurs might enjoy a trip to Montepulciano to wash down a cheese tasting in Pienza. Art lovers will no doubt take the hour’s drive to Siena or Arezzo for a day drip. No matter what little adventures you decide to go on, be sure to stop and smell the flowers in the garden and feel the soft grass between your toes.
