Each time I write about Tuscany Italy, my heart and my full body for that matter experiences an intense feeling of calmness. I know precisely this feeling comes from the relaxed atmosphere this part of Italy near Florence gives off. I have found an ideal balance of enjoying the fascinating city of Florence and its cultural activities at the same time I refurbish energy by either doing a farm vacation or staying in a luxury villa in the countryside of Tuscany.

Wallow in luxuriousness in Tuscany Italy

The words ‘luxury’ and ‘farm’ might scare you away, firstly because everybody associates luxury with expensive and farm with small comfort. Let me tell you of some fantastic 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 40 kilometres north-east of Florence, just outside the little city of Dicomano, hidden away in the olive tree covered Tuscan hillsides. The in depth property homes three areas which are referred to as towns, each having residence accommodations and a completely 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 village 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 luxury villas, only that you are sharing a typical ground with other travellers. When you get your Tuscany car rental, you should 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 option 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 one of those holiday rental places in Tuscany where you may have it all and still have your own breathing space, having your freedom 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 miss out on the wonderful beaches, there are excursions to the Mediterranean shore, too.

Staying in Tuscany in the Chiantii area in the posh villa estate called Villa de Dievole close to the old city of Vagliali. As all villas used to belong to the Italian noble class, the exclusiveness and privacy is incomparable. The decoration in many has been respected in the restoration process, thus you are living among many centuries of history. This 16th century villa has rooms and suites with a private guesthouse, too.

Without overtaxing one’s strength, your Tuscany Italy holiday tours can be choked full of emotions and peacefulness.
