With an enviable location in one of the most beautiful parts of Tuscany, the sumptuous Villa Artina melds a bohemian aesthetic with stunning scenery to create a unique destination. Perched on a hillside with a breathtaking vista over the Lucca valley, this impressive seven-bedroom pool villa lets families and small groups relax amidst the backdrop of a blue sky, luscious olive groves and gently rolling hills.

Whether you prefer the art at Galleria degli Uffizi, the historical artefacts at Museo di San Marco, or Basilica di Santa Maria Novella’s striking architecture, this authentic Tuscan farmhouse is the perfect base for exploring the magnificent Renaissance city of Florence. Enjoy the area’s local cuisine, which is famed for using fresh local produce and eschewing fussy execution. Try traditional dishes of wild boar pasta, chargrilled steak Fiorentina rubbed with olive oil, thick-crusted bread and biscotti in one of the nearby restaurants during your stay.

Sleeping up to 14 guests, Villa Artina boasts a spacious living room with a fireplace, dining room and fully equipped kitchen. The charming mix of double and twin bedrooms with ensuites occupy the first and second floors, while the airy TV room and a games area in the mezzanine provide a separate space for the children to play. Wellness aficionados are sure to appreciate the art studio, meditation and yoga terrace, while everyone will love getting together for a friendly match of table tennis. For the ultimate convenience, the villa comes with parking for up to five cars.

This delightful villa’s showpiece is its spectacular outdoor space. The various garden seating areas are set across multiple levels with a greenhouse, wood pizza oven, and BBQ - perfect for refined outdoor entertaining. Spend long sun-drenched days splashing in the stylish infinity pool or simply unwinding in the shade of the pergola - it’s a delightful way to escape the rat race at any time of year.
