Wild Primrose Seeds

Wild Primrose Seeds: Tuscany

Sweeping views of the Tuscan countryside from the terrace and nothing by nature surrounding you, this apartment is a romantic bolthole that embraces la dolce vita. Get to know Tuscan cuisine with a trip to the onsite deli, or an organised wine tasting in the little cellar. Or, simply enjoy a bottle of red with that awe-inspiring view from the pergola-covered private terrace. There’s an outdoor dining area and gardens galore shared with the other ancient stone buildings of this complex.

Your apartment is decked out with romantic rusticana in mind. Think exposed stone walls at every turn, wood-beamed ceilings and crisp white linen. The gnarled wooden worktops in the kitchen feel as though nonas have been hand-making pasta here for decades and the flagstone floor is cool underfoot. The bedroom sits beneath a centuries-old wooden ceiling, for fairytale dreams as you drift off.
