As specialists in villa holidays for two, we spent months on the road cherry-picking the very best locations for your Italian holiday. Tuscany offers stunning scenery – including the wine-growing area of Chianti – plus a choice of villas for couples within driving distance of many fascinating hilltop towns and villages.

Alternatively, couples can find a villa for two amidst the hills and valleys of Umbria, Lazio to the south or Liguria in the north west, where you’ll also be within easy reach of the Italian Riviera. But wherever you go, Simpson Travel caters for couples who want to indulge a taste for the finer things in life.

Discover Italy’s famous cities

While much of Tuscany has art galleries and museums to admire, Florence is the birthplace of the Renaissance and staying in one of our Tuscany villas means you’ll be close enough to visit. A living, breathing art gallery both inside and out, the countless churches and grand squares rub shoulders with designer stores and upmarket restaurants to accommodate devotion in all its forms.

And then there’s Venice – one of the world’s most iconic backdrops for a couples’ holiday. Few places are quite so atmospheric and although all our villas for two promise a wonderful time away, this famous city is guaranteed to send hearts a-fluttering.
