With views over the Chiana Valley, this Tuscan farmhouse is surrounded by picturesque scenery in every direction. Featuring a main cottage alongside a small pool-house (equipped with an independent kitchen, living area and bathroom), the space is perfect for a family or group of friends. The serene setting of the garden here puts this home in a league of its own – and you'll find plenty of perching spots to enjoy a glass of local wine. The private swimming pool, too, overlooks the Tuscan landscape, and a covered alfresco dining area calls for home-cooked Italian meals in the sunshine. While the traditional designs inside feel a little dated, they don't seem out of place, given the home's rural Italian countryside location.
