Welcome to Idyllic Italy. We are your personal travel consultants for Italy. Our mission is simply to save you time & pair you with your perfect villa rental in Italy.

Whether that is a sprawling luxury estate in the Tuscan countryside or a contemporary bolt hole by the sea on the Amalfi coast – we are sure to have something to suit your requirements within our carefully selected portfolio of villa rentals in Tuscany & beyond.

Our story began in 1973 when our parents Barry and Christine Pearson began renting villas in Versilia, on Tuscany’s golden coast. Nearly 50 years on and we’re still very much a family run company with a passion for Italian travel and exceeding your expectations.

Tuscany was our first love & remains our specialist destination but we also offer villa rentals in other beautiful corners of Italy such as the Italian Lakes, Sicily & the Amalfi coast. Our website offers just a flavour of what we do. If you don’t see what you are looking for – we encourage you to contact us with your villa rental requirements and allow us to inspire you

OUR DESTINATIONS: Explore Italy with us...

Amalfi Coast

The Amalfi Coast is one of the most famous and beautiful stretches of coastline in the world. It goes without saying that this Italian gem is mesmerising in its beauty, all consuming in its appeal. But for travellers looking for more than just mind-blowing aesthetics, there’s so much more to the Amalfi Coast than its peripheral.

View Properties

Italian Lakes & Mountains

The Italian Lake District is quite possibly Italy’s most desirable destination. Both Ezra Pound and Alfred Tennyson wrote about the Italian Lakes in their poetry, and to this day the area upholds its prominence as one of the most stylish holiday resorts in the world.

View Properties

Lucca & The Tuscan Coast

The Tuscan coast remains 'Our special part of Italy' which year round offers an interesting and varied holiday. You will find beautiful Medieval towns, wide golden beaches & plenty for all ages to do including: Golf, tennis, water-sports, horse-riding, cycling & walking in the Apuan alps.

View Properties

Sicily

Off the foot of the Italian boot stands the Mediterranean’s largest island, Sicily. With over 25,000 kilometres of land to call its own, and as the polygonal crossroad between Europe and Africa, it’s no wonder that Sicilians dance along to their own melody; a melody which differs from any other region of Italy.

View Properties

Tuscany Countryside

Tuscany is no stranger to tribute or applause. It’s no novice to tourism or success. And it’s certainly no neophyte when it comes to luxury. And we can certainly vouch for that here at Bridgewater’s Idyllic Italy.

View Properties

Umbria

Umbria is the only region of Italy without coastline or border with another country - for that alone, the region is completely unique. Lodged between Tuscany, Le Marche and Lazio, Umbria is the heart (and soul) of Italy.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY:

Mr & Mrs Hanson

Dear Nicola, We arrived to a bottle of wine and a note from you – thank you so much for all of your attention to detail, planning and recommendations. I really don’t think that we’d change anything about our trip. We will of course pass on your details to anyone who asks and recommend you without a second thought. Thanks again. Mike & Julie

Ms. S. Sawyers

Nicola – hello – we are back from an absolutely glorious week at Villa Marzio (le cannicelle in Villammare) – everything was more than we hoped for, Marzio runs an excellent villa, extremely comfortable and great for little kids (though we were on full alert because pool not gated) …. but Marzio was super attentive to all our needs, there is so much to do in the area, hikes, boat trips, pool amazing etc etc etc.We are super thrilled with how the holiday went.Many thanks indeed for organising this for us.

Amanda Lee

Your recommendation to stay near Lucca, given the age and experience mix of the party, was spot on. The villa was wonderful and Alessandro welcoming and helpful. We would happily stay there again and would definitely both recommend you and hope to rent a villa through you again.

Natalie Thomson

We had a wonderful meal in Lucca at Buca Di S. Antonio from your suggestions and also in a local trattoria near the villa suggested by Alessandro. The written directions to find the villa were clear and when one car in our party got separated, it meant that they found the villa without too much hassle. Best wishes
