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...

Presenting a very traditional exterior with a chic and stylish polish to the interiors, Villa Poggio La Croce is a stone villa in Tuscany with a charming terracotta roof set within lovely gardens and nestled amongst the rolling green hills of the Chianti wine region. Located in the countryside but just 2km (1 mile) from the town of Radda In Chianti and 19km (12 miles) from Greve In Chianti, it is also within easy day-trip distance of Siena, San Gimignano, Florence, and Arezzo. Villa Poggio La Croce boasts a private pool and can sleep up to 12 guests comfortably in six bedrooms with three bathrooms.

Fashion-lovers often find themselves interested in a vacation in Tuscany as Italy is a well-known fashion hot spot with lots of stylish locals to admire, and Tuscany, in particular, boasts endless fashion museums to visit, incredible flagship stores and other wonderful boutiques in which to shop, and a long tradition in making astounding leather goods and jewellery, in particular. The region is also home to lots of little local sartorial gems from smaller fashion museums in various towns, to shopping outlets carrying brands like Prada, to artisans who have been working out of traditional workshops for generations, to more niche fashion specialities that can all be uncovered while staying in one of our Tuscany villas. One of these specialities is Chianti Cashmere.

While, of course, Chianti is best known for its wines and culinary heritage, as well as its lush and beautiful landscape, it is also home to one of the finest cashmere producers in the entire world. Chianti Cashmere is a sustainable, small producer making incredible objects that is a true must for the most discerning shoppers and fashion-lovers who are interested in a luxury villa in Chianti and a holiday enjoying the finer things in life from exquisite garments to unbelievable wines. 

If you happen to be a wine-lover who is considering a vacation in Tuscany, then you probably have in mind that tasting wines, touring vineyards, and simply buying incredible wines at more inexpensive local prices will be factors that are certain to enhance your time in the region no matter where you book a holiday rental in Tuscany. However, there is a particular area of Tuscany that is well-known all over the world and that will likely be calling out to you above all others: this is, of course, the globally-recognised wine area of Chianti.
