Wine in Your Water Glass

With a spacious interior, plenty of period features and an inviting outdoor area – there's a lot to love about this recently renovated apartment, which is set within a traditional Tuscan farmhouse and purposely tucked out of the way in the gently rolling hills.

Thick stone walls, cool tiled floors, and exposed wooden ceilings lend this ground-floor residence a traditional vibe, while the gorgeous pool entices you to spend most of your days outside under the summer sun. In addition to the gorgeous shared spaces, the home also benefits from a private outdoor area where you're free to grill up gourmet offerings. Every meal here (except for breakfast... probably) will benefit from being accompanied by beautiful extra virgin olive oil and a mouthwatering medium-bodied chianti – all made by your host, Nicola.

Away from home, Montespertoli – one of Tuscany's renowned wine capitals – is just a five-minute drive, while the stunning Renaissance city of Florence is 35km away. No trip to Tuscany would be complete without at least one day spent exploring this bucket-list-topping destination.
