Discover the Wonderful Things About Tuscany Italy

June 20th, 2009

 

Every time I write about Tuscany Italy, my heart and my whole body in fact experiences an intense feeling of quietness. I know exactly that this feeling comes from the relaxed atmosphere this part of Italy near Florence offloads. I have found an ideal balance of enjoying the entrancing town of Florence and its cultural activities at the same time I refurbish energy by either doing a farm vacation or staying in a luxurious villa in the countryside of Tuscany.

The words ‘luxury’ and ‘farm’ might frighten you away, firstly because everyone associates luxury with pricey and farm with tiny comfort. Let me tell you of some amazing places where I have been and you will see how this is way more pleasing than staying at a hotel in the town centre.

The Fattoria il Lago cottage is found about 40 kilometres north-east of Florence, just outside the little city of Dicomano, hidden away in the olive tree covered Tuscan hillsides. The extensive property homes three areas which are referred to as towns, each having apartment accommodations and an entirely different landscape to like. The main lodging building is known as La Villa and has a pleasurable view of the Dicomano Valley. Merely a short walk away you find Lago town with its corresponding pool accompanied by a beautiful garden. The 3rd area is the most old fashioned sleeping quarters called Macerato, embedded among all the hues of green possible. This sort of vacation rental is as cosy and reposeful as the posh villas, only that you are sharing a common ground with other travellers. When you get your Tuscany car rental, you should ask for a good map and perhaps 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 have to allow them know beforehand.

The 11th c. Medieval monastery of San Lorenzo a Linari in Sovicille, south of Siena is an example of those vacation rental places in Tuscany where you can have it all and still have your own breathing space, having your freedom from stress. This superb lodging is individual terraces enticing you with Tuscany tours like 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 miss out on the lovely beaches, there are excursions to the Mediterranean shore, too.

Staying in Tuscany in the Chiantii area in the luxurious villa estate called Villa de Dievole near the old town of Vagliali. As all villas used to be part of 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.
