Villa Bocaccio is a centuries-old home sitting amidst the rolling countryside and woodlands of Tuscany. Looking out over the breathtaking Val d'Orcia, this traditional stone home is the perfect place for those wishing to explore Tuscany's countryside and towns. The home sleeps up to ten guests in its five en-suite bedrooms, making it well-suited to a large family or a group of friends.
The villa is a historic home built with the local Radicofani stone. The building has plenty of space as it is set over three floors. Within the last few years, the villa has been carefully and tastefully renovated to preserve the original features and materials. In addition, the home has been beautifully decorated throughout with a blend of contemporary interior design, high-quality furnishings, antiques and artworks, which have been collected by owners from around the world.
The ground floor has a large living room with sofas and armchairs around a fireplace. The dining room is a lovely space with a large scenic mural on the walls and wooden beams on the ceiling. You can prepare your meals in the country-style kitchen! Also, on this floor, one of the five bedrooms: a double room with an en-suite bathroom.
On the first floor is another living room with a sofa and a TV, followed by two more bedrooms. One bedroom has a double-sized bed and a bathroom with a bath, plus shower, while the other room has a double bed and an additional single bed, suited to those with a child; this room has an en-suite shower room. The second floor is also home to a living room and two bedrooms; one double and one room with two twin beds.
Outdoors, you can unwind on the 10 hectares of land. Gazing out from the garden, you can soak in the fantastic views over the Val d'Orcia while you dine al-fresco under the covered pergola or as you swim in the private swimming pool.
The centre of the village of Radicofani is just a short stroll away from the home. This gorgeous medieval centre has everything you could need on your break.
What you should know…
- As the feature staircase has no hand-rail, the home is not recommended for very young children.
- One of the bedrooms has an additional bed which would suit a child.
- Though the house is set in Radicofani, you will have plenty of amenities on your doorstep but you will need a car to visit other parts of Tuscany.
