Villa Vivace - so aptly named, emanates liveliness, within the spirit of an authentic Tuscan stone-built home, overlooking vineyards. This chic retreat accommodates up to ten guests across 5 bedrooms, within stylish, yet understated living spaces and lovely gardens executed with outdoor living in mind.

Set in a tranquil spot, this home offers the best of rural Tuscan living, with abundant space, beautiful views at every turn and stylish courtyard-style outdoor spaces, infused with a natural, yet elegant, Italianate feel. Dining and reclining on pretty wrought-iron or wicker garden sets, adopting the local pace of life will set the tone of your stay at Villa Vivace. Indulgent long lunches in the dappled sunlight of the stone-paved terrace or a refreshing poolside breakfast, or perhaps an evening barbecue in the balmy summer air as the sun softens over the vineyards, will strike the right note.

Stepping inside, this understated abode is infused with authentic character and individual flair. With floor-to-ceiling glass, indoor and outdoor living interplay seamlessly. The living spaces hint at an old-world charm and Tuscan grandeur while retaining a rustic feel. Soft upholstery, porcelain lamps and the original fireplace jostle with flagstone flooring and antique carved timber furnishing.

With two reception rooms to choose from, guests have ample space to spread out as a family or group. Three of the bedrooms are in the main house and two are in a separate wing - perhaps two families holidaying in tandem will enjoy that privacy. The bedrooms are serene and sedate, finessed with that distinctive rustic Italian charm, quality bed linen, pretty pastel tones in pistachio and coral, while exposed timber beams, ornate styling and gilded framed artwork lends a characterful note.

Clusters of charming villages, churches and forestlands surround Villa Vivace, which is also no more than 20 minutes from the historically rich Siena, while Florence is an hour’s drive away. The iconic skylines of San Gimignano are just 50 minutes away. Known for its Etruscan and Medieval villages, vineyards, monuments and traditional way of life, this region offers a taste of authentic Tuscany.
