Think of a villa and a bright summer house probably comes to mind, with its manicured gardens and grand towers. The term has its origins in the Roman Empire, when it was used by the likes of Cicero and Pliny the Younger to describe their vacation homes in the Italian countryside. Today only scattered ruins remain, the most famous of which are perhaps the terraces of Hadrian's villa at Tivoli. The villas may also have a classical connotation, with wooden beams and country kitchens. This fits Pliny's description of the "rustic villa," which is more of an elegant farmhouse than a sophisticated property. These manors received an upgrade during the Renaissance, with a greater emphasis on symmetry and lush garden features.
