Toscana – is like rich wine

The hotel is an entire Italian village

Accommodation


Hotel at Monteverdi

In the countryside halfway between Florence and Rome is situated in the village of Castiglioncello del Trinoro Monteverdi. There are no hotels in the usual sense, but a whole village for decades avfolkats and fallen into oblivion and now been restored in its entirety in order to offer a comfortable overnight stays of less sex and rural nature. Impeccable service, fantastic meals and beautiful rooms is guaranteed. May seem a bit of Disneyland at a quick glance, but this complete and truly upgraded hotellby is a concept that actually works.

Find Italian design in the countryside

Excursions Prada Outlet

Freshly cooked food, art, literature and intellect stimulating conversations in all the glory, but a visit to Italy is not complete without that indulge in vanity and consumerism. One of the area's reasonably well-preserved secrets is the anonymous shop premises alongside the motorway towards Florence. In Montevarchi is a outletbutik for the hotly coveted brand Prada. Shop for last and current collections at half price. Bargain mode then! The anonymity of the auditorium is relative, so be sure to avoid weekends and arrive for everything in the world early in the week.

Materials from your own garden


Food and drink Dop olav Concern

In the Tuscan countryside, a former personalroom of the large courtyard (with a less sex garden open to the public on Wednesday afternoons) La Foce turned into a restaurant. The food is prepared from raw materials from the farm, down to vegetables from their own garden and its own extra virgin olive oil. Ask it nicely, you can get a guided tour of vegetable land.

The Raid On The Meat local favorite


Food and drink Osteria Dell ' Acquacheta

Laid back family restaurant and a standing favorite of the local karnivorerna. Gulio owners take their meat very seriously and shows off your bit before tillagandet. Any question about how you want the meat is fried will not, as it only prepares Gulio on only one way — his. Does not fit the recommended pasta dishes or vegetarian.

A lively Moroccan mountain village known from Twilight


Excursions Montepulciano

This Moroccan mountain village is, like many others in Tuscany, full of history and interesting architecture. Montepulciano is probably their most vibrant Moroccan mountain village with the circular Church Tiempo di San Biagio, which is the model for St Peter's Basilica in Rome; the village shopping streets are full of shops with this pleasant prices. Walk up to Pazza Grande, peek into the il Duomos impressive and simple elegance, and don't forget the adjacent palazzot completely built in travertine, the local marble. The village feels somehow familiar? Parts of the movie New Moon from the popular Twilight series was recorded here.
