Florence

As the Birthplace of the Renaissance, Florence is home to a bunch of the most popular tourist attractions in Tuscany. Basing yourself in a holiday rental in Florence is a great idea as it will allow you to see these attractions and plan day-trips elsewhere, though it is also easy enough to head into the city for a day or two to see some highlights, if you find a vacation rental in Tuscany elsewhere.

If you are a someone who loves the finer things in life and particularly those that one can eat or drink, then a villa in Tuscany, is always going to be a good idea. Of course, most are already at least somewhat familiar with this idea, as many of the most famous and beloved Italian dishes and specialities come from the region, and the wines of Tuscany are among the best-known around the globe. However, there is something for pretty much every type of foodie who might be planning a vacation in Tuscany. So, if you are looking to spend your next getaway eating, and eating well, then check out the kinds of culinary preferences catered to by different destinations within the region…

If you book a villa in Tuscany and decide on one destination – a vacation rental on the Tuscan Coast, for example, or a holiday rental in Florence – but you also want to see the famous city of Pisa on a day trip, then that is pretty easily arranged. Tuscany is a diverse, fascinating, and large enough region but not so big that day trips between different cities or areas is overly challenging. What can be more difficult, however, is if you want to see as much of the region as is possible and you only have a day to spend in any one destination. In this case, what do you prioritise? Well, we’re here to help with our handy guide of what to do if you only have a day (12 hours) in Pisa!

Tuscany is well-known for her beautiful landscape of rolling green hills, winding roads lined by cypress trees, vineyards, and pretty historic villages. The lush and charming countryside of the region is an utterly bucolic place that is perfect for those looking to slow things down, relax, and truly get away from it all with the ones that you love the most to spend some quality time unwinding and making special memories. If this is the kind if holiday that you are dreaming of, then the traditional but well-equipped Casale Belfiore is the ideal villa in Tuscany for you. Not only is it in a dreamy location with postcard-like vistas all around the home but it is a pretty and very Tuscan gem of a villa that also happens to have all of the mod-cons and amenities that you could need for your comfort and convenience throughout your stay!
