Villa Malatesta is a beautifully restored Tuscan retreat set within expansive private grounds, offering a peaceful stay surrounded by nature just outside Volterra. Designed for relaxed countryside living, this elegant home blends contemporary comfort with authentic character, creating a welcoming base for families or small groups.

Inside, the villa features three spacious double bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, alongside bright and thoughtfully designed living spaces. A fully equipped kitchen, stylish dining area and comfortable lounge open out towards the gardens, encouraging an easy indoor-outdoor flow. There is also a dedicated fitness area and practical touches such as air conditioning, underfloor heating and a home office, making longer stays effortless.

The outdoor spaces are a highlight. The estate spans approximately 8,000 sqm and is entirely enclosed, offering privacy and a strong connection to the surrounding landscape. A newly created secret garden adds an extra layer of charm, with aromatic plants, quiet corners and a natural setting that attracts butterflies and bees. Guests can enjoy the infinity swimming pool, heated jacuzzi, shaded dining areas and relaxed lounge spaces, all designed for slow days under the Tuscan sun.

With thoughtful sustainability features and welcoming hosts nearby, Villa Malatesta offers an authentic yet refined escape in the heart of Tuscany.

  • Once a small, rustic dwelling, Villa Malatesta has been extended and updated to the highest of standards, transforming it in to a modern and luxurious home.
  • The villa can sleep six guests across three beautifully decorated bedrooms with chic en-suite bathrooms.
  • The stunning garden offers guests an infinity pool, a hot tub and al-fresco seating where you can look out over the woodlands, valleys and the Mediterranean Sea beyond.
  • Guests can enjoy a peaceful holiday here in the Tuscan countryside, walking, hiking and cycling in the breath-taking landscape. You can also easily reach the historic, walled town of Volterra which is just a short distance away.
  • One of the villa's ground floor bedrooms includes a wheelchair-adapted bathroom, making the villa a thoughtful and accessible choice for guests with reduced mobility
