Monteverde, Tuscany

Encouraging you to live ‘fully, deeply and richly’, Monteverdi is remarkable hotel that focuses on the simple pleasures of life. In the Tuscan countryside, in the dreamy medieval hilltop villages, this boutique hotel is the place to be to ignite the sense, with sight, sounds, smells and especially tastes. An unrivalled cultural programme where world class artists, singers, painter and sculptors come together to present their work. Lectures are delivered by some of the world’s brightest minds and the cuisine uses the local produce to create exceptional menus. All this played out in the grand setting of the Monteverdi aesthetic. Bedrooms are lovingly restored to bring you suites that are contemporary and comfortable. The hotel even has its own Villas where you can experience the Monteverde life in seclusion and privacy. The best part of this hotel, though, is undoubtedly the Spa. So popular that is set to expand over the coming year, it is a tranquil sanctuary where treatments are aplenty. Their underground heated swimming pool is our favourite, with is peaceful waterfalls and invigorating massage jets in a room that feels like a little cave.
