Another popular location in Italy is Tuscany. This breath-taking countryside comprises of rolling hills, beautiful olive trees and an endless number of vineyards. The Tuscan countryside is ideal for those looking for a private escape to enjoy some peace, calm and serenity.
The properties here are much larger than many homes in the Amalfi Coast, making it an ideal destination for a family looking for a relaxing experience where outdoor living and alfresco dining maybe enjoyed daily.
Many of the homes have large pools and big gardens growing fruit. The weather offers the ideal vacation conditions – warm, dry with very ambient evenings. The excessive heat of high Summer that can sometimes make the cities of Tuscany a little oppressive is perfectly offset by the more relaxed experience of a country hill-top Tuscan Villa, with a pool and extensive grounds.
