VAL D’ORCIA, 3 nights at La Locanda del Loggiato
Backdrop to some of the heart-achingly lovely landscapes in The English Patient, the gently rolling hills and golden fields of the UNESCO-listed Val d’Orcia, are guaranteed to capture the imagination and stir the soul. And your base in Bagno Vignoni offers something a little different. The Piazza d’Acqua at the heart of the village is home to a pool of warm volcanic waters, famed for their healing properties and attracting visitors since medieval times. Though bathing is no longer permitted in the picturesque central square, a few minutes’ walk will take you to one of the delightful hot springs nearby where you can soothe away those aches and pains with impunity.

THE AREZZO PROVINCE, 4 nights at La Madonnina
Bordered by the Apennines to the east, the Arezzo province is a fairy tale land of forests and castles stretching down to the Umbrian border in the south. Arezzo itself is one of the wealthiest towns in Italy thanks to its long history as a magnet for goldsmiths and there are an abundance of stylish boutiques and elegant restaurants here as a result. Anghiari, widely considered to be among the most beautiful villages in Italy, is well worth a visit to catch one of the many impromptu music concerts that spring up amongst the cobbled streets in summer and a visit to the chic hilltop town of Cortona is a must. Just across the border in Umbria, Lake Trasimeno is a delightful place to spend a day by the water and the region’s vibrant capital Perugia is bursting with life and drivable in just under an hour.
