Discover The Direct Flights And Book Your Villa In Tuscany

Have you been dreaming about a vacation in Tuscany? Well, now is a perfect time to plan a trip as many new direct flights to the region have been added!

Traditionally, many choosing to holiday in the area had to fly into Bologna but Pisa and Florence are actually the two major international airports within the region itself and might be more convenient arrival points depending on where you will be staying. Thankfully, however, there are increasingly more and more direct routes opening to these two regional airports so if you want to plan a trip, you’ll have more options available to you. Book your villa in Tuscany and you’ll be able to easily organise your arrival thanks to these new direct flights...

If you’re holidaying in the valley of Casentino in Tuscany then perhaps taking a few day trips around the region would be an excellent way to see all that this abundant area has to offer! There are plenty of gorgeous luxury villas and farmhouses available for visitors to rent and enjoy relaxing in for their stay here. About twenty minutes drive from the large town of Bibbiena is the town of Pratovecchio. The centre of this charming commune is named Piazza Paolo Uccello, after the great Renaissance artist who was born here in 1397. There are two monasteries in this town; a monastery of the Camaldoli Monks which was founded by the Guidi Counts in the 12th century and the monastery of the Dominican monks of Santa Maria della Neve in the 16th century.

Pratovecchio is famous for its exquisite Tuscan dishes. Why not stay for lunch here in a restaurant called ‘La Tana Degli Orsi’ which has been well reviewed by visitors. Try a popular dish called ‘Tortelli sulla Lastra’ which is essentially a large ravioli stuffed with a mixture of pumpkin, garlic, bacon, potato and percorino.

For those who love to invest in local crafts as special, long-lasting, well-made, and unique souvenirs of their trips and as gifts to bring back to people at home, Tuscany is certainly a destination that has some really wonderful and numerous offerings. From ceramics, to straw hats, to leather goods, to cosmetics favoured by queens, to special cakes, to gorgeous gold jewellery, there are a range of stunning carefully-crafted products from Tuscany that continue to be made using traditional methods and are worth checking out if you have booked a vacation rental in Tuscany.

While many of the regional crafts of Tuscany are well-known commodities that those who holiday in Tuscany know to seek out, there are many that are less familiar. Among these Casentino cloth (or Casentino wool) has, however, been becoming increasingly familiar as more and more famous brands have sourced it for the construction of their garments from Armani, to Stüssy, to Dior, and beyond.

Exploring Tuscany, you'll be so busy and will have so much to see and do that many people don't take a moment to really sit back and take in her natural beauty. Fewer still take the time to look up at the sky. If you want to really appreciate the region, why not pause, breathe in the fresh air and visit the Planetarium at Casentino for a spot of star-gazing. Spend an evening admiring the clear skies in the area and learning more about the stars above you – it's bound to make for a magical night and memory! Just find a vacation rental in Casentino and make your way to the planetarium one evening.

Tuscany is a famous fashion destination and has produced some of the world’s most famous and beloved clothing brands, including Gucci and Ferragamo. This heritage and tradition stretches far back into history and, as a result, the region is also home to lots of different fashion museums. You can visit the museums of those aforementioned big fashion houses in Florence, the grand Costume Gallery (a fashion museum that is part of the impressive Palazzo Pitti complex), the Textile Museum in Prato, and more. However, one of the lesser-known, but nonetheless exceptional, examples of a fashion museum in Tuscany is located in the town of Stia, in the lovely Casentino Valley. If you have found a vacation rental in Casentino and are exploring the area, be sure to come to Stia to see the pretty town, visit her unique Wool Museum, and learn all about the heritage of wool production in the area.

Spend a delightful few hours of touring around the pretty town of Stia in Arezzo province during your next holiday to Tuscany!

Although Stia is often referred to as the ‘source of the Arno’, the real source is in fact located 1,200 metres further uphill on the slopes of Monte Falterona.

Tourists with a love of nature would be intrigued to follow the young River Arno from where it rises down to the town of Stia where it is joined by the River Staggia.
