Every time I write about Tuscany Italy, my heart and my full body in fact experiences an intense feeling of quietness. I know precisely this feeling comes from the relaxed atmosphere this part of Italy near Florence releases. I have found a perfect balance of enjoying the engaging town of Florence and its cultural activities at the same time I refurbish energy by either doing a farm holiday or staying in a luxurious villa in the countryside of Tuscany.
Wallow in Luxury in Tuscany Italy
The words ‘luxury’ and ‘farm’ might scare you away, firstly because everyone associates luxury with expensive and farm with tiny comfort. Let me tell you of some wonderful places where I have been and you will see how this is way more enjoyable than staying at a hotel in the city centre.
The Fattoria il Lago farmhouse is found about forty kilometres north-east of Florence, just outside the tiny city of Dicomano, hidden away in the olive tree covered Tuscan hillsides. The intensive property homes three areas which are called towns, each having apartment accommodations and an entirely different landscape to like. The main lodging building is called La Villa and has a pleasurable view of the Dicomano Valley. Merely a short walk away you find Lago village with its corresponding pool accompanied by a beautiful garden. The 3rd area is the most quaint sleeping quarters called Macerato, embedded among all the colors of green possible. This sort of vacation rental is as comfortable and reposeful as the posh villas, only that you are sharing a common ground with other tourists. When you get your Tuscany car rental, you must ask for a good map and maybe even ask them if they can give more explicit directions towards Dicomano being as the farmhouse is located off other country roads. Usually any vacation home in Tuscany offers the choice of giving full directions when booking and also being picked up at nearby train or bus stations. You simply have to make sure they knows beforehand.
The 11th c. Medieval priory of San Lorenzo a Linari in Sovicille, south of Siena is one of those vacation rental places in Tuscany where you may have it all and still have your own breathing space, having your liberty from stress. This superb lodging is individual studios captivating you with Tuscany tours such as viewing the hillside and mountains seated in a four-wheel drive car, horse-back riding or an aerial view from a hot-air balloon. And if you do not want to lose out on the beautiful beaches, there are excursions to the Mediterranean shore, too.
Staying in Tuscany in the Chiantii area in the luxury villa estate called Villa de Dievole near the old town of Vagliali. As all villas used to belong to the Italian noble class, the exclusiveness and privacy is exquisite. The decoration in many has been respected in the restoration process, you are living among many centuries of history. This 16th century villa has rooms and apartments with a personal guesthouse, too.
Without overtaxing one’s strength, your Tuscany Italy holiday tours can be choked full of emotions and peacefulness.
