Tuscany (or Toscana in Italian) is a region in central Italy celebrated for its landscapes, history, and artistic legacy. As of 2025, Tuscany has a population of 3,660,834 inhabitants and an area of about 23,000 square kilometres (8,900 square miles). 
Villa Ardore, a 500-year-old restored farmhouse, is now a luxurious private estate in Tuscany, offering curated experiences that celebrate the essence of Italian living. Located in the Chianti Classico wine region, the property invites guests to live the Tuscan dream, experiencing the land, its people, and its stories through a variety of activities. The owners, Christian Scali and Stephen Lewis, aim to create a sanctuary that celebrates authenticity, elegance, and the soul of Tuscany.

This summer, Villa Ardore is offering a Season of Discovery and Delight Summer 2025, featuring exclusive activities and experiences. Guests can visit the private studios of painters, ceramicists, calligraphers, and jewellery makers, gain insight into their craft and inspiration, and create their own artisan pieces. They can also enjoy sunset aperitivos and alfresco dining by the infinity pool, while enjoying fresh, organic ingredients sourced from the villa's garden. Pizza workshops with a Master Pizzaiolo teach the secrets of perfect dough and regional toppings using the villa's traditional wood-fired oven.

Guests can also enjoy open-air yoga sessions or bespoke treatments in the Roman Spa or by the heated infinity pool, offering breathtaking views. Villa Ardore's exclusive partner, Worth Avenue Yachts, offers a new adventure to discover the Italian Riviera by Yacht.
