Chiusa Grande

The charming image above may look to you like any other pretty public pool at first glance but it is actually something a little more special than that and is, furthermore, something for which many of the more discerning tourists know Tuscany: it is a thermal bath. Though many rate the region of Tuscany as a top tourist destination because of the rich cultural heritage, the incredible foodie culture, and the beyond belief, picture-perfect scenery, spa-lovers and those looking for therapeutic and relaxing treatments have been coming on holiday to this part of Italy for literal centuries. Long before the modern tourism industry even existed, travellers were seeking out Tuscany and its abundant hot springs and thermal spa towns. Today, it still remains one of many really great reasons to browse our Tuscany villas and to get planning a vacation in this part of the country ASAP. The large and impressive thermal pool pictured above, meanwhile, is the one that visitors will find if they decide to explore this strand of Tuscan tourism and plan a trip to the spa town of Venturina Terme while staying in a villa on the Tuscan Coast.
