Perpoli Villa

Villa Perpoli is immersed in the Tuscan countryside, set on a hillside overlooking both the Apuan Alps and the Apennines from a privileged position.
The landscape accompanies every moment: from the pool you can watch the mountains shift in colour at sunset; in the garden, the only sound is silence.
Inside, classic lines blend with contemporary details, offering bright, refined and beautifully finished rooms. Outdoors, nature, greenery and shaded corners make the villa a secluded retreat where relaxation and beauty come together.

One of the most striking features of Villa Perpoli is its generous sense of space.
Although it offers just two double bedrooms and one single (large single bed - piazza e mezzo) , the interiors are spacious, airy and open, providing the comfort and feel of a much bigger property. This makes it ideal for guests who appreciate room to breathe - couples, small families, or anyone wanting a spacious, tranquil retreat.
