Villa Giotto | Tuscan Views, Pool & Private Garden near Volterra
Escape to Villa Giotto, a beautiful semi-detached Tuscan villa set high in the rolling countryside near Volterra, with breathtaking 360° views, a large private garden, sun-filled terraces and a panoramic saltwater swimming pool just 20 metres away.
With two bedrooms, two bathrooms, full air conditioning and generous indoor and outdoor living space, Villa Giotto is ideal for couples, friends and families looking for a peaceful base from which to experience the very best of Tuscany.
Wake to views across the Tuscan hills, spend the day relaxing by the pool or exploring nearby medieval towns, then return to the villa for dinner and a glass of wine as the sun sets across the countryside.
THE VILLA
Villa Giotto is arranged entirely on one level and comfortably accommodates up to four guests.
The villa has two comfortable bedrooms. The first bedroom has a double bed, while the second bedroom has two single beds and its own en-suite bathroom. There is also a separate main bathroom.
The bright living and dining area opens directly onto the garden and terraces, while the fully equipped kitchen provides everything needed for relaxed meals at home.
The villa is fully air-conditioned for comfort during the warmer Tuscan months.
PRIVATE GARDEN & OUTDOOR LIVING
One of Villa Giotto's greatest features is its large private garden and wonderful outdoor living space.
Attached directly to the villa is a spacious covered pergola and terrace of approximately 55 m², creating a natural extension of the indoor living space. It provides a beautiful setting for outdoor dining, relaxing in the shade or enjoying a glass of local wine while taking in the surrounding Tuscan countryside.
There are several sunny terraces and seating areas around the villa, allowing you to enjoy the views and Tuscan sunshine throughout the day.
From the front of the villa you can watch the sun rise over the hills, while the rear garden and terrace are perfect for enjoying spectacular Tuscan sunsets.
THE POOL
The panoramic saltwater swimming pool is approximately 20 metres from Villa Giotto and enjoys wonderful views across the surrounding countryside.
The pool is shared with the other properties within the small borgo and is normally open from 1 May until 30 September.
Sun loungers and areas for relaxing around the pool make it an ideal place to cool off after a day exploring Tuscany.
BORGO COLLEVICCHI
Villa Giotto forms part of Borgo Collevicchi, a peaceful development of just ten privately owned villas and apartments surrounded by beautiful Tuscan countryside.
Although part of the borgo, Villa Giotto benefits from its own large private garden extending around three sides of the villa, together with several terraces, giving guests plenty of private outdoor space to relax and enjoy the Tuscan surroundings.
The setting offers the best of both worlds: peace, space and countryside views while remaining within easy reach of Volterra and many of Tuscany's most beautiful towns and attractions.
LOCATION
The historic hilltop town of Volterra is approximately 15 minutes away by car, with its beautiful medieval streets, Etruscan history, restaurants, cafés, shops and spectacular views.
San Gimignano, one of Tuscany's most famous medieval towns, is also within easy reach, together with numerous smaller villages, vineyards and restaurants throughout the surrounding countryside.
The world-famous Teatro del Silenzio, created by Andrea Bocelli near his home town of Lajatico, is approximately 10–15 minutes away by car and can even be seen in the distance from the area around the villa.
The location also makes Villa Giotto an excellent base for exploring further afield, with Pisa, Siena, Florence and the Tuscan coast all accessible for memorable day trips.
There are several excellent restaurants and traditional Tuscan agriturismi within a short drive. Even better, Agriturismo Santa Vittoria is just a short walk from the Borgo gates, making it possible to enjoy a relaxed Tuscan meal and wine without having to drive.
A PEACEFUL TUSCAN ESCAPE
Villa Giotto is particularly suited to guests looking for somewhere peaceful and relaxing while still being well positioned for exploring Tuscany.
Whether you spend your days discovering medieval hill towns, visiting vineyards, relaxing beside the pool or simply enjoying the privacy of the garden, Villa Giotto offers a wonderful place to experience the landscape, food and atmosphere that make Tuscany so special.

About the host
Hosted by Robert Jackson
We are a family of four from England. We have travelled extensively throughout Europe and the world, but Tuscany has always been special to us. The incredible landscapes surrounding the villa (and Volterra) change from season to season, from rich greens to golden browns.
The people of Tuscany are so friendly, the food and wine are excellent and there are so many things to do and see around the area. We purchased the villa in 2015 and are making changes with every visit to help make our home an incredible experience for our guests.
Why they chose this property
While looking for a property to purchase in Tuscany, we viewed many properties in several different areas before we decided that "Villa Giotto" was to be our “home away from home.”. We loved the properties on Borgo Collevicchi as soon as we visited and have stayed in some of the other apartments too (on separate occasions in summer and autumn), but we felt at home as soon as we stayed at Villa Giotto. Every room, especially the lounge and dining area, benefits from the stunning views through the large patio doors throughout the villa.
All the major towns and cities are within easy reach of the villa, and we love exploring the area, so it was perfect!
What makes this property unique
The views from all sides of the villa's large private garden are amazing, and the large south-facing patio creates a fantastic extension to the very sociable living area.
The nearest restaurant is the Agriturismo Santa Vittoria, which is 150 metres away from the Borgo's front gates. The owner of the agriturismo (Luigi) looks after our villa for us and is very helpful to our guests and is knowledgeable about the area.
The villa is located in the centre of Tuscany, so it is perfect for exploring, and most cities, towns and attractions can be reached within an hour's drive. It is easy to set off in the morning to explore a new area for the whole day and still arrive back home at a reasonable time to enjoy the late sun around the pool with an aperitif.
A panoramic terrace surrounds the lovely saltwater swimming pool, and the Borgo's landscaped grounds are meticulously maintained.
