Borgo Iesolana: A Rustic Paradise in Tuscany Between Florence and Siena

Borgo Iesolana is your own exclusive slice of Tuscany, tucked away in a rustic oasis. The agriturismo has a collection of luxurious apartments, each overlooking a scenery so splendid and untouched it'll leave you lost for words.

A oasis in a panorama that is unbelievably wild and natural, Borgo Iesolana is an extraordinarily beautiful location, with no noise for kilometres to bother you while you're soaking up the charm of the Tuscan scenery, the olive groves and vineyards. And while Borgo Iesolana may seem like an island amongst a sea of breathtaking natural beauty, it's actually only a short distance from Arezzo, Siena and Florence, allowing you to soak up the splendour of Italy's heritage without having to travel endlessly.

The apartments themselves have extremely old foundations, as the property was once a family farm. Beautifully preserved, they have kept the old-fashioned sand-coloured brick external surfaces and red, terracotta roofs that are so synonymous with the Tuscan countryside, which stretches out in front of each apartment.

Inside the apartments are earthy, comfortable and effortlessly sumptuous all at the same time. Oak floors and serena stone transport you to the Tuscan farm countryside and each room is infused with a comfortable feel that will make you want to throw everything in and move to Tuscany. Each item of furnishing is a hand-crafted antique collectible, chosen to celebrate the artisan feeling of the district, and modern conveniences are not neglected either, with a phone, plasma television and internet access added to each apartment to ensure you don't lose touch with the rest of the world.

And what holiday in Tuscany is complete without the food? Guests can cook their own Italian feasts in the lovely furnished kitchens in their apartments or they can take advantage of Borgo Iesolana's fantastic chef. Rise to a beautifully prepared breakfast of lovingly made cakes and bread just out of the oven and smothered with homemade marmalade and honey or filled with cold cuts and eggs, all collected that day from local producers

Guests can continue to enjoy 'spuntini' during the day in Borgo Iesolana's wine bar, where delicious homemade dishes like lasagna and pizza are served with wines produced on the villa. Guests can also try their hand at making these Tuscan dishes by themselves at a cooking class set up just for them.

After and light or heavy snack, there's nothing like an afternoon spent enjoying the natural splendours of Tuscany. Guests can go it alone on foot or horseback or soak up the spectacular surrounds with the help of an expert guide. But if walking or horse riding isn't in your idea of relaxation, then take a seat on one of the deckchairs by the pool and embrace the magnificent panorama... or try your hand at some ping pong.

Borgo Iesolana is the epitome of modern sophistication and country-style. It so perfectly captures the essence of the Tuscan countryside, becoming an absolute extension of the landscape from its essentially rustic country atmosphere to its chic pool and stone-paved courtyard. A true slice of paradise, Borgo Iesolana goes beyond just a place to leave your luggage. And it's also ideal for business meetings and events with an ample conference room and elegant area perfect for weddings.

Elisa Scarton is an Australian journalist who stumbled across the Tuscan countryside. I loved it so much that wasn't content with a holiday in Tuscany, but made it my home. Borgo Iesolana is one of my favourite holiday villas when I want to just get away from it all and be pampered in the Tuscan countryside
