Holiday with friends in style in a private villa

Decrease Font Size Increase Font Size Text Size Print This Page

If you are planning to holiday with a large group of friends, hiring a luxury villa may prove more suitable for accommodating your needs than booking multiple hotel rooms. Italy has always been a popular destination for those seeking a couple of weeks away at a time and it has become even more fashionable in recent years.

Tuscany in particular is one of the most desirable regions to visit. It is home to Florence, which is the birthplace of the Renaissance and steeped in culture and history, as well as several other of Italy’s most beautiful cities. The region is well-known for producing high quality wine, excellent food and features beautiful countryside.

The Estate of Petroio accommodates up to 30 people

If you are looking for a villa, Tuscany Now offers many exquisite and highly exclusive rental properties and also provides guests with excellent customer service, which means you can add certain experiences to your stay. Tours of vineyards and viewings of the Sistine Chapel by moonlight are examples of what is offered and Tuscany Now can also advise on restaurant bookings.

Among villas within the portfolio include the Hamlet Casamora. Hamlet Casamora is an impressive structure that is situated in a very remote location. It is surrounded by peaceful Tuscan hills and pretty olive groves. The property embraces traditional influences but also has modern furnishings. There are suites located within the main building and several separate villas in adjoining buildings that complete the Hamlet.

The infinity pool at Hamlet Casamora

The interior design is particularly striking and includes a spectacular suspended library where guests can enjoy browsing famous literature. Another impressive feature is the enormous infinity swimming pool, which is framed at one end by an attractive pool veranda. It is possible to dine at Casamora in the owners restaurant; however, both Florence and Chianti are also only about half an hour away from this tranquil retreat.

Other properties of note that can be hired through Tuscany Now include ll Cornello. This is set on an exclusive estate within the Val d’Orcia region, which is classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and often said to be the most beautiful landscape in Tuscany. In true Tuscan style, this breath-taking villa is set on a hilltop with a private cypress lined road, offering spectacular views of the rolling countryside.
