Top 5 Gorgeous Tuscany Villas You Can Rent For Vacation
Beloved by Americans, Brits are paying freedom to the beautiful land of Tuscany in derision of Chiantishire, as from here travelers stream away from the drabness of England and into the purchase of a villa for a summer spent in sightseeing, swimming, and socializing. But Tuscany is large, and there are many hidden little places worth a visit. The landscape is a beautiful blend between the common and the uncommon, the known and the lesser-known, all in its own splendor and memory-bringing farmhouses, beautifully restored-turned-villas and boutique Tuscan hotels.
Keeping this scenario under consideration, we are presenting to you the list of top 5 gorgeous Tuscany Villas you can rent on for vacation.
First up is Borgo Santo Pietro
If one does not have the guts to seize an entire villa, one will know that the 13th-century Tuscan villa is run as a boutique hotel. You will have your pick of joining in one or the other traditional rooms, where the walls are decorated with murals and antique furniture fills up the space, or some garden suites, where crystal chandeliers hover over four-poster beds beside doors that open to a lavender-filled courtyard. Breakfast is served in an oversized farmhouse-style kitchen or outdoors on a terrace, under the lemon trees, with views of the rolling green hills beyond.
Thermae
Dating from the sixth century, the villa full of character has seen varied lives as a house for a stable and a nightclub. As of now, the villa registers as an extraordinary two-bedroom-two-bathroom Plum Guidehouse. The antique honey brick walls provide an excellent contrast for the mid-century modern decor and sleek chrome kitchen. There is home cinema setup, space for the artist’s studio, and an arrestingly designed rainfall shower set that lacks an arched alcove. The true diva here is the underground plunge pool, situated in the old vaults, accessible only through a trapdoor.
Tuscan Castle
Unique among Italian residences, this immense Tuscan retreat offers a seriously stylish stay in an 11th-century castle, exquisitely poised between Rome and Florence. Much history has been kept intact—the vast kitchen with exposed stone walls and ceiling is certainly a highlight—whilst modern comfort works subtlety throughout. Each of the nine bedrooms comes with in suites, while the others range from four-poster beds with terraces hot tubs to lounge rooms with minibars and kitchenettes. The glass-walled dining room provides everyone with a place to get together and enjoy the garden view. For a better one, lunch can also be served outside from the elevated al-fresco dining area, overlooking farmland, vineyards, olive groves, and towering cypress trees. After lunch, choose either of the two infinity pools for a refreshing dip.
Villa Cetinale, Tuscany
Of all the beautiful addresses in Tuscany, few can lay their claim on history with quite the grandiose weight of Villa Cetinale. And, grandiose it is in every sense creation of 1680 for Pope Alexander VII, it has witnessed entries such as that of royalty (Princess Margaret) and rock stars (Mick Jagger) among many illustrious others over time. The gardens of Cetinale, with climbing roses, lemon trees, statues, and vine-draped pergolas, were praised by Edith Wharton as an exemplar of Tuscan beauty. From the villa, you will have private access to the gardens, the heated swimming pool, and a tennis court. Each of the 13 bedrooms is named after a different color. All are luxuriously decorated, but the red room, with its scarlet velvet four-poster, is the one to die for. Naturally, staying here comes with the services of a full staff, including a chef, waiter, daily housekeeper, and porter.
La Regina
Every luxury has been thought of, from the badminton court to the infrared sauna in this gorgeous 14th-century Tuscan house. Six bedrooms in the old convent are styled like those in a boutique hotel, each with smart seating areas, exposed beams, and air conditioning. The kitchen was originally a literal pigsty; however, it has now been outfitted with marble countertops, an Aga stove, and more cookbooks than any one chef can use. Outside, there is a vegetable garden and orchids for picking fresh ingredients. Much of the house is built around a courtyard where one can gather with the outdoor lounge and dining area set under the stars. The other cool hangout area is the magnesium infinity pool, lined with sun loungers and an outdoor hot tub, with the views falling gently away onto the beautiful rolling hills of Tuscany.
