This rustic stone villa is located just a short stroll from the historic centre of Gaiole, surrounded by world-class vineyards and sun-drenched olive groves. The traditional building has been thoughtfully restored and now boasts contemporary decor alongside many of its original features. And outside you’ll find plenty of serene spots to soak up the countryside views, from a private pool to an alfresco dining terrace. Because of the layout of this home and garden, we think it’s best suited to groups of friends or families with older children.
