Private Villa
Houses that are on their own - some magnificently isolated, others simply private. These range from large renaissance villas close to Siena or Florence to beautifully converted farmhouses in rolling landscape.

Romantic Retreat
Properties that we feel are particularly suited to finding time to yourselves. This do not always mean they are isolated, or separate - some of the nicest places are small apartments in medieval hill villages, with everything on your doorstep, when you do decide to pop out for another bottle of Prosecco...

Village home
More and more people are coming to Tuscany for the village life, which is wonderful. Small shops, local sights, restaurants and bars within walking distance, all make village living a very enjoyable experience. Some of our village properties even have gardens and swimming pools, so you can have the best of both choices!

Ideal for families with children
Groups of houses in old hamlets, rambling farmhouses, there are just some of our properties that families with children come back to year after year. Places like Montestigliano or Linari are favourites as there are often other families with children there too, so they can even make new friends.

Apartment in a hamlet
Difficult to get in a short description, these are often small hamlets, or 'fattorias', in which a number of old farmhouses have been converted -

Luxurious or special house
Some houses are simply a step above, whether because they are grand old family 'palazzi' or because they have been impeccably restored and outfitted. Amongst these houses you will find a medieval castle, luxuriously restored farmhouses and elegant fifteenth century villas.

Apartment in farmhouse or villa
The old tuscan farmhouses are often enormous rambling buildings - many of these have been converted into a number of apartments. You can still enjoy your privacy - there are generally private outside areas for each apartment, but you also get to meet other people - often great for families with children!

Walk to restaurants and shops
Places you can arrive at and throw the car keys away! Sometimes because they are within villages, other times they are on their own but within walking distance - i.e. about fifteen minutes walk - of a restaurant or bar.
