Old collides with new at this secluded villa in the middle of the south Tuscan hills. Days can be spent hopping between the vineyards of the Val d’Orcia or day-tipping to the UNESCO village of Castiglione d'Orcia, a short drive away. This Tuscan farmhouse is surrounded by forest-clad hills, creating a beautiful view from the myriad terraces and patios where you can dine and recline. A private pool awaits for hot days and there’s a barbecue with a view. Oodles of space inside allows big groups to spread out – across the cosy farmhouse living room, the family snug and a vast chill-out room with a teepee and boho-style lounge areas.
