This fairytale villa, nestled in the Italian countryside, offers a true escape from everyday life. And, with two self-contained apartments inside, it's perfect for groups who want to spend some quality time together while still having their own space. The crisp white walls create a sense of calm, and there are some gorgeous traditional touches like the exposed stone archways and bay windows framing the beautiful views outside. Step out onto the patio, and you can breathe in the fresh air as you enjoy a lavish breakfast and make plans for the day. When the temperature rises, head for the pool deck to make a splash in the water, or simply stretch out on a lounger to catch some rays.
