Immersed in the Tuscan countryside away from the crowds, Villa Lucy is a luxury country villa nestled in the beautiful Val d’Orcia, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in the heart of central Italy. The sprawling resort is surrounded by rolling plains and offers a truly harmonious stay for those who wish to restore calmness in their lives.

The Tuscan landscape is considered among the best that Italy has to offer. Full of spectacular hills, elegant architecture, sun-kissed vineyards and gnarly olive groves, it lures travellers in search of fine art, cuisine as well as history and nature.

Stone arches, wooden-beamed ceilings and cool flagstones underfoot make this traditional Tuscan farmhouse a wonderful example of the area’s distinctive architecture. Featuring nine bedrooms hosting up to 24 guests, the ample property is ideal for big group getaways as well as weddings and honeymoon stays. Inside each carefully decorated bedroom, you can find old elements such as exposed brick walls, wooden beams and clawfoot bathtubs mixed with contemporary touches to create a unique rustic feel.

The home is enveloped by manicured gardens with green bushes and citrus trees throughout – but the star of the show is the panoramic pool offering scenic views over the pristine landscape. Perfect for a wholesome morning swim or an afternoon splash, it lets you breathe in the fresh countryside air. On a balmy evening, the outdoor veranda is the best spot to curl up with a lightweight blanket and watch the orange-slice sunset linger in the distance with a side of your favourite aperitif. If you decide to stay for stargazing, the handy firepit is sure to keep you warm until the early morning hours.

It's best to hire a car to explore the surrounding towns and natural wonders and the closest village is 10km from the villa.
 
To further soak up the region’s wholesome atmosphere, the Riserva naturale Lucciola Bella is a green paradise displaying the region’s stunning nature with roads snaking through the endless countryside, walking trails and abundant plant species. There are amazing vantage points along the way from where to admire the valley as well as many authentic picnic spots if you need to stretch your legs and refuel.

More nature awaits at the Lago Trasimeno, a 90-minute drive away. Here you can relax on the pebbled shores, admire the water from the comfort of a paddle board and rowing boat or wine and dine in characterful trattorias dotted all around.

The closest bigger city is Grosseto, located a comfortable 80-minute drive away. It has a pretty central square and 2900 meter long city walls that have been turned into a tree-line walkway, inviting you for a picturesque stroll after a hearty lunch. Stop to admire the Cathedral of San Lorenzo or visit the Archeological Museum filled with well-preserved Etruscan artefacts to catch up on some history lessons.

Just over a 90-minute drive away, Perugia is a city known for its defensive walls built around the historic centre and a Priori Palace that exhibits regional art from the 13th century onward, making it a wonderful option for a relaxed day trip.
