Lucignano: A Well-Preserved Medieval Village

Tuscany is filled with beautiful sights to see scattered throughout the memorable countryside. One of the most beautiful areas is located in the Province of Arezzo.

Lucignano is a municipality here located in between Florence and Arezzo, notable for its well-preserved medieval walls. Set on the top of a hill, it was the site of dispute between a range of Tuscan cities between 1200 and 1500, including Siena, Arezzo, Florence, and Perugia.

There are many historical sites to visit within this town, including a bevy of examples of medieval architecture which remain. The best way to appreciate these sights is by exploring on foot.

Here we are again with another Villa Spotlight where we dig through our archives to pull our a gem of a property just for you!

This week we're off to the Arezzo Countryside to a property called Villa Ulivi & La Casina. This Villa is very difficult to describe as words could not do justice to the fantastic architecture.

It is located just on top of a small hill in the Tuscan Countryside and is just 700mt from the medieval town of Lucignano. It has recently undergone renovation and it is furnished to the classic Tuscan taste while offering every modern comfort.

Carnival is an event celebrated all over the world that sees people let loose before going into Lent, in anticipation of Easter. These colourful, joyous and, often, wild, events are famous, particularly New Orleans' Mardi Gras, Rio's Carnival, and Venice's Carnevale. However, while Tuscany may not be as famous for this event, her iterations are many and wonderful. If you're looking for a party come next March (Shrove Tuesday is on the 5th of March in 2019), then why not find a luxury villa in Tuscany and check one or some of these local Carnevale festivals out?

In the late 13th century in the town of Sinalunga, Tuscany…an outlaw called Ghino di Tacco was born! He began life as a robber along with his father and brother, gaining fame for their outlandish plans to outwit the Siennese Republic who were determined to catch them and bring them to justice.

Book a beautiful villa rental in Sinalunga where you can explore the birthplace of Ghino di Tacco and other wonderful attractions in the area.

And we're back with another Villa Spotlight!

This time we're taking a trip to Foiano Della Chiana in the Arezzo countryside to a spectacular Villa that sleeps up to 15 people in 8 bedrooms!

Villa Laura has beautiful panoramic views and very stylish architecture and spacious gardens with its own private pool for guest use.

The bedrooms are tastefully decorated and there is plenty of counter space in the kitchen for cooking.

We think that one of the best thing about this villa is the room with the snooker table. It is perfect for relaxing and having fun in with friends and family. There is even a chess set in the corner!

The “Palio dei Somari” is an event that takes place each year on the Sunday following the 19th of March (Or on the 19th of March itself should it fall on a Sunday). Do you like horseracing? Does your heart pound at the thought of sitting in the grandstand, cheering on your favourite in an electric atmosphere as colours flash past you and the grass is flattened under the hooves of some of the most majestic animals in the world? If so, then take a trip to Torrita di Siena and brace yourselves for an event you will never forget!

If you have heard of the "Palio di Siena" then brace yourselves for this twist on the traditional horse race between the "Contrade".
The Palio dei Somari is a race held for the prize of the "Palio" in which the Saint that inspired it (St.Joseph) is depicted. Every year the Palio can change hands from one district to another, depending on the champion, however, there is one difference between this race and that of Siena. Horses are not used in the race at all. Instead, the people race on donkeys. Yes, you did read that correctly.
