Staying at a Firefly Collection luxury villa is about more than just a luxury property. It is about the luxury experience and creating memories to treasure.

If you like to experience new things on your luxury villa holiday, then here’s a few ideas…

Stay at: Villa Arrighi, Umbria, Italy

Private horse riding lesson or hack around the spectacular Umbrian estate of an Italian count. Take out one of the count’s private horses for an escorted tour of the vast estate and get off the beaten track to explore the unfathomably beautiful rolling hills of Umbria on horseback.

Stay at Villa Piantaverna, Umbria, Italy

A gastronomic experience you’ll never forget is heading out into the Umbrian hillsides with an experienced ‘hunter’ and their dog to search for the elusive truffles or go foraging for wild mushrooms and wild asparagus.

Stay at: Villa Barco, Umbria, Italy

Learn to make pasta the old fashioned way with a private cooking lesson from the chef at your Italian villa. Great fun for adults and kids alike, you can pick up some tips to make authentic Italian cuisine, and of course you get to enjoy the results at the end.

Stay at: Villa Il Borro, Tuscany, Italy

What trip to Tuscany is complete without a trip to a vineyard and wine producer. Stay at the breathtaking Villa Il Borro, Ferragamo’s estate and former home, and take an escorted tour around the property’s vineyards and winery. Learn about the subtleties of the regional flavours and of course taste the fabulous wines.

Stay at: La Bergerie Terre Blanche, Provence, France

A stay at the gorgeous La Bergerie Terre Blanche gives you the opportunity for a whole host of great experiences to treasure. The younger guests will have a blast doing a children’s treasure hunt in the villa’s extensive gardens, and the resident chef can do kids cookery activities to keep them entertained.

And for the adults, they could pop over to the stunning spa at the estate’s 5 star hotel and indulge in some serious relaxing, or play a round of golf an the on-site world class Terre Blanche golf course.

Stay at Villa di Roma, Rome, Italy.

If you are thinking of a city break but want it to be really special, stay at the luxurious Villa di Roma in central Rome. There is really nowhere else like it. Set in a peaceful park just moments from the city centre, the villa manager can create an itinerary of fantastic experiences you never forget.

From a guided ‘behind the scenes’ tour of some of Rome’s greatest monuments, to creating your very own ice cream at one of the cities oldest and finest ice cream shops or indulging in some retail therapy with a personal shopper to escort you to all the best designer boutiques and help you pick out that something special.

And if shopping is not your thing, how about exploring the eternal city from behind the wheel of a classic Alfa Romeo, Ferrari or Fiat 500?

This is just a taster of some of the unique activities that can be arranged at Firefly Collection villas.
