While those decorative floor tiles, stone archways, and white-washed vaulted ceilings remind you this home is firmly planted in Tuscany. But it's the suntrap balcony leading off from the bedroom that's getting us hot under the collar here – the views over the emblematic terracotta rooftops are magnificent.

When it's time to soak up the local culture, lose yourself to its ancient, winding streets packed with museums, farm-to-table restaurants serving Tuscan fare, and cosy wine bars for an evening tipple. And be sure to make a beeline for Arezzo's central square – it's just as beautiful as it appears in Roberto Benigni's classic film La vita è...
