Speaking of holidays in Tuscans means also speaking of the traditional Tuscan cuisine: canapes with "lardo di Colonnata", bread soup, "bistecca alla fiorentina" (the typical Florentine grilled T-bone steak), "schiacciata con l`uva" (a sweet flat bread with grapes) and "cantuccini" cookies with "vinsanto" washed down with "Brunello di Montalcino" or another of the excellent wines produced in Tuscany. Without forgetting a drop of Tuscan extra-virgin olive oil, when needed.

• You will thus have the opportunity of participating to the grape harvest and to the olive harvest; you can harvest the vegetables cultivated in the estate and take care of the horses in the riding stables or of the other animals living in Tuscan farms. In short, your holiday in Tuscany will be different from those you have so far heard of from your relatives and friends. A slow holiday in close contact with nature.

• You can also enjoy romantic dinners in the candlelight by the water: the ideal location for celebrating the most important moments in your life and that of your nearest and dearest.

• Last but not least, you can take care of your body even when you are on holiday. A few lengths in the swimming pool every day and some trekking in town, at the discovery of its artistic and architectural beauties, or up and down the gentle Tuscan hills and you will be back home as fit as ever.
