Tuscan Tapestries

Elegant and attractive, this home boasts a peaceful location in the green hills of the Valdera Valley, southeast of Pisa. It feels a million miles from the hustle and bustle, but it’s close to the restaurants and shops of the village of Palaia. You can also easily visit Volterra and San Gimignano – if you can tear yourselves away from the private pool, that is. The south-facing terrace is a real suntrap, and you can dine alfresco thanks to the barbecue and pizza oven. There’s a main house and a converted barn, making this home ideal for a couple of families travelling together.

Home truths:
*This home is spread between the main house and a converted barn so you won’t all be sleeping under the same roof.
*The swimming pool is open from May to October.
*There’s free parking for up to three cars at this home.
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a free cot and high chair upon request.
*There are stairs to climb at this home so it may not be suitable for those with reduced mobility.
*Bedroom three can be set up as a twin or a double; just let your host know which you’d prefer.
