Il Palagio is set above the picturesque Tuscan town of Figline Valdarno. It has been the summer home for Sting and Trudie’s growing family for over two decades, and the setting for many of their intimate parties, private concerts and anniversaries. The villa, its guesthouses, vineyards and olive groves have all been lovingly restored by Sting and Trudie, and it is now a vibrant and fully functioning organic farm and vineyard. Now, Trudie and Sting are offering this truly spectacular, completely unique and historically significant location as a place for you to have a once-in-a-lifetime experience, host the most special of occasions, or simply relax and enjoy a very special setting.

"Il Palagio is like stepping into a painting. And one of my favourite places on earth. I hope you fall in love with it as much as I have." — Sting Read more
