Tips that will make your holiday vacation rental in Tuscany more enjoyable.
Over the past decade a new and exciting way to visit Italy has emerged. As an alternative to hotels, renting a villa in Tuscany is now an enjoyable and affordable way to experience Italy. No matter whether you’re traveling for pleasure, business or maybe you’d like to learn to cook authentic Italian meals, renting a villa in Tuscany has never been easier. The selection of villas, farmhouses, apartments and B&B;’s has never been better or more affordable.
Be sure to dedicate some time to visiting the many historic cities located in Tuscany. The historic center in Florence, the symbol of the Renaissance, is a must see. We offer many wonderful apartments in many historic cities including Florence, Siena, Lucca, Arezzo, Pisa, San Gimignano, Montalcino, Cortona and many more.
Florence rose to economic and cultural pre-eminence under the Medici in the 15th and 16th centuries. Its 600 years of extraordinary artistic activity can be seen above all in the 13th-century cathedral (Santa Maria del Fiore), the Church of Santa Croce, the Uffizi and the Pitti Palace, the work of great masters such as Giotto, Brunelleschi, Botticelli and Michelangelo. Inside the Church and Dominican Convent of Santa Maria delle Grazie with "The Last Supper" by Leonardo da Vinci, on the north wall is The Last Supper, is the unrivalled masterpiece painted between 1495 and 1497 by Leonardo da Vinci, whose work was to herald a new era in the history of art.
Siena, the embodiment of a medieval city. Throughout the centuries, it preserved its city's Gothic appearance, acquired between the 12th and 15th centuries. The whole city of Siena, built around the Piazza del Campo, was devised as a work of art that blends into the surrounding landscape.
Once you rent your accommodation in a nice villa along the Tuscany coast you may decide to visit Pisa leaning tower. Standing in a large green expanse, Piazza del Duomo houses a group of monuments known the world over. These four masterpieces of medieval architecture - the cathedral, the baptistery, the campanile (the 'Leaning Tower') and the cemetery - had a great influence on monumental art in Italy from the 11th to the 14th century.
San Gimignano "delle belle Torri" is situated in Tuscany, 56 km south of Florence. It served as an important relay point for pilgrims on the Via Francigena to and from Rome. The patrician families, who controlled the city, built some 72 tower-houses (up to 50m high) as symbols of their wealth and power. Only 14 have survived but San Gimignano has retained its feudal atmosphere and appearance. The city also contains masterpieces of 14th and 15th-century Italian art. In San Gimignano you find wonderful apartments in town and other villas around.
Pienza was in this Tuscan town that Renaissance town-planning concepts were first put into practice after Pope Pius II decided, in 1459, to transform the look of his birthplace. He chose the architect Bernardo Rossellino, who applied the principles of his mentor, Leon Battista Alberti. This new vision of urban space was realized in the superb square known as Piazza Pio II and the buildings around it: the Piccolomini Palace, the Borgia Palace and the cathedral with its pure Renaissance exterior and an interior in the late Gothic style of south German churches.
