Each apartment features a spacious open-plan living and dining area with a fireplace and fully equipped kitchen, creating welcoming spaces for long, relaxed meals and sociable evenings indoors.

A covered portico with dining space for the whole group overlooks the gardens and countryside beyond, while the infinity swimming pool offers panoramic views across the surrounding hills. Days can be spent enjoying leisurely lunches by the barbecue, trying homemade pizzas in the wood-fired oven, or simply relaxing on the sun loungers beside the pool.Though wonderfully secluded, the villa is within easy reach of Tuscany’s coastline, historic hill towns and renowned wine villages including Bolgheri, Volterra and San Gimignano.
