Italy for families
A villa week with a pool, day trips that end by lunchtime, and food every child will eat.
Italy is the easiest family holiday in Europe to make exceptional. A villa with a pool gives the children a base; a driver and a guide give the parents a way to see things without a convoy. The food does the rest.
Tell us the ages, the dates and whether you want sea or countryside. Both is possible with ten nights.
Where we go
A villa in Tuscany, Umbria or Puglia for a week, or on the Amalfi coast for a trip built around the sea. Rome or Florence for two or three nights at the start, with a guide who turns the Colosseum or the Uffizi into a treasure hunt.
How the week runs
A cook on some evenings, a driver for day trips, and a pattern of mornings out and afternoons in the pool. A pasta-making lesson, a boat day, a cycling route through the vines or a gelato tour give each day a shape without filling it.
Who it suits and when
Families with children of any age and multi-generational groups. June and September for warm sea and quieter towns; July and August for the long school holidays, with the heat planned around.
- Best time
