Tuscany is famous for her food and wine, her beautiful landscape and historic cities and towns, her culture, and more - but one thing that many might not realise is that this lovely region of Italy is also a hub for unique sporting traditions. So, if you love sport but you also love a curiosity, be sure to pay attention to this lesser-celebrated but fascinating part of Tuscany’s heritage during a stay in one of our incredible villas in Tuscany!

Want to attend one of these curious events for yourself and to enjoy the excitement and thrills of a good game alongside the fun of a more off-beat sport? Well, then check out our guide to some of Tuscany’s most unique and intriguing sporting events...

While many of our incredible villas in Tuscany boast astounding views over the famous rolling green hills and verdant valleys of the region, some of our villas on the Tuscan Coast offer scenic seaside views instead. Among these, Villa Fior di Roccia has perhaps the most remarkable sweeping coastal panorama and stunning outdoor spaces from which to enjoy them. In addition, many of the bedrooms and other rooms in the house give guests beautifully framed vistas or peeps across the bay as you go about your daily life. So, if you want to enjoy a Tuscan getaway but also really want to make the most of a seaside break, this is the perfect base, set in an elevated position just 200m from the water, and can accommodate up to eight guests comfortably in four bedrooms with four bathrooms.

One of the best things about Tuscany as a destination is that it boasts a varied and beautiful landscape. Those who book a villa in Tuscany, therefore, will often find that alongside savouring incredible meals and local wines, ticking major attractions off their bucket lists like the Leaning Tower of Pisa, experiencing astounding works of art and architectural gems like Michelangelo's David and Florence's Duomo, and relaxing like a local, simply soaking up the beauty all around is what makes a vacation here so magical! Better still, many of our holiday rentals in Tuscany offer guests perfectly framed views that they can enjoy all throughout their stay – when you open your bedroom window in the morning, as you dine al fresco in the garden, when you're lounging by the pool, while sipping wine during sunset on the terrace, and more.
