Italian Life on Your Doorstep in Tuscany

One of the most common requests we receive from those of you considering a self-catering holiday in Tuscany is that you’d like to be within walking distance to restaurants, shops and bars.  It’s always a tricky one as many of you also want villas with pools, views over countryside and – of course – peace and quiet.

Villa Anna sleeps 11

We’re cheating with this one, as it’s over the border into Umbria, but it’s definitely worth a mention, in the small village of Citerna with some of the most amazing views we’ve got on offer!

Casa Tosca sleeps 8

This one has it all!  It’s 500 metres from the town of Montaione (albeit a walk up quite steep hill), which has bars, restaurants and shops in abundance.  It also has one very fantastic view and is in a very tranquil location.  All boxes ticked!
