Renting a villa in Italy is the surest way to savour 'la dolce vita'. Focussing on areas of great natural beauty and cultural wealth, we have a selection of properties on the beautiful island of Sicily in addition to our core programme covering the central part of mainland Italy, encompassing the vineyards of Tuscany and the rolling hills of Umbria, the blue-flagged beaches of Le Marche, the shoreline of lakes Trasimeno and Bolsena, and the glory of the Eternal City, Rome.
The artistic and historical significance of the capital, as well as such cities as Florence, Siena, Perugia, Palermo and Catania, cannot be overstated. Yet we feel equal enjoyment can be had from simply becoming immersed in the Italian way of life: sipping a morning cappuccino in the square and watching the world go by, buying fresh market produce and tasting delicious homemade gelato, and joining the locals on their 'passeggiata' – evening stroll through the streets.
