For the final cherry on top of a dream holiday and the perfect atmosphere for a getaway in Tuscany, read on to some of our most amazing vacation rentals in Tuscany with stunning views…
Torretta Penthouse Luxury Apartment
This luxury apartment, located right in the historic core of Florence boasts a truly beautiful view of the city’s wonderful Duomo and Brunelleschi’s soaring dome, in particular, framed by the charming terracotta roofs of the surrounding buildings. Not only will you be right at the heart of things, a short walk from some of the city’s most beloved attractions, but at Toretta you will have a direct view of one of the most iconic landmarks along the beautiful Florentine skyline. Sleeping up to four guests in two bedrooms, with two bathrooms, this apartment offers an unbeatable experience of the birthplace of the Renaissance.
Casa Farfalla, meanwhile, is a stunning six-bedroom, five-bathroom modern villa perched on a hillside high above the medieval walled town of Lucca. Boasting sweeping panoramic views over the stunning and famous town and the iconic lush landscape of the Tuscan countryside, this wonderful architectural feat is made up large expanses of glass, allowing guests to enjoy the remarkable surroundings from rooms all throughout the house. Plus, the pool, lounging, and dining areas are all also positioned to keep those views always right in front of you.
Surrounded by the thick foliage of mature trees and old walls, the impossibly pretty Villa Vorno is a historic villa dating back to the 17th century that is located on a vast estate in the Tuscan Countryside, also near Lucca. Throughout the seven-bedroom, seven-bathroom (sleeping up to fourteen guests in total) villa, you can admire gorgeous views through the windows and doors, from the balcony and terrace, out onto the lakes, lawns, statuary, paths, trees, and flowers of the gorgeous classic Italian gardens. Live the good life of the Italian aristocracy and enjoy the sweet surroundings of these lush and beautiful grounds.
One of the most famously scenic parts in all of Tuscany (which really is saying something in a region that is so lovely) is the Orcia Valley. Here you will find many of the places where the most iconic and commonly shared images of the region where taken – the winding, cypress-lined roads, the foggy hills and valleys, the patchwork of fields. Villa Della Regina is perfectly positioned within the Orcia Valley, on a hill 1km from the town of Fonte Della Regina, and taking in a wide and unspoiled view over this scenery. Sleeping up to fifteen guests in seven bedrooms and with seven bathrooms, this villa is a perfect escape in peaceful and pastoral surroundings. Get away from it all and wake up to postcard-perfect views every morning at Villa Della Regina.
This six-bedroom, five-bathroom historic farmhouse sleeps up to twelve guests and is nestled into the hills overlooking Florence, the lush greenery all around, and a pretty little lake right by the property. Offering guests both easy access to the city and all of her delights as well as gorgeous surroundings that allow for all sorts of wonderful outdoor pursuits from hiking to horseback-riding to golf, Ricavoli is the best of both worlds. Made up of three parts, with the oldest dating all the way back to the 13th century, the villa has endless character but has also been perfectly restored for your comfort and convenience. The outdoor spaces of the villa and her estate have also been beautifully established to make the most of the astounding setting and scenery and it boasts neatly manicured gardens bursting with life and plants and blooms, a gorgeous veranda in front of the villa for al fresco meals that takes in the charming vista, and a saltwater pool equipped with lovely lounging areas as well as a changing room and shower room at the most panoramic point of the estate.
Ambrogetta, meanwhile, is not perched so high above the stunning Tuscan landscape as to offer the same sorts of sweeping views as many other entries on this list but, rather, amongst the impossibly pretty pastoral surroundings of an impossibly picture-perfect swathe of the Tuscan countryside, 1 km from the centre of San Casciano In Val Di Pesa. The scenery here is made up of gently rolling little hills punctuated by tall and proud cypresses, neatly laid out fields, winding little roads, and the town in the backdrop. From many of the rooms and the grounds, therefore, you get these perfectly framed views of the surroundings that look like delightful little landscape paintings. For a peaceful getaway for up to eight guests in four bedrooms and three bathrooms, this sweet stone villa with its neat rose-filled garden and pretty and elegant interiors is just the thing!
