Tuscany Holiday Accommodation

Bed & Breakfast
Half & Full Board
Holiday week with Art Tours & Activities

"In Tuscany, in an ancient farm house on top of a hill there is
a place where the silence is talking to your soul and where
the smell of the rosemary and the wild oregano puts you in
a good mood, where the old bricks of the house tell you
stories from the past...."


The heart of Tuscany: Where We Are!

In Palaia, a beautiful walled medieval town in the province of Pisa. At 45 min. from Pisa, Florence, Volterra, San Gimignano. One hour from Lucca, Siena and the Chianti. One and half hour from Cinque Terre, Montalcino, Montepulciano, Pienza.

The landscape is gorgeous, nature is pure and the small medieval villages, located on top of a hill, are still full of fascination, with their several cafès, a baker, a butcher, a small grocery, few restaurants, and an open market, at least once a week.
From there, the beautiful Tuscan panorama: rolling hills, with their profiles marked by the dark shade of the cypresses.

The house, called Podere il Poggione is nestled on top of a hill, surrounded by cypress and olive trees.
Four bedrooms and a suite, all with enclosed bathroom, each one with it's own character and beautiful furnitures handed down from generation to generation.

Everything combines to create a cosy athmosphere to make you feel completely home!

The beautiful garden invites you to eat "al fresco", to take a nap under the fragrant shade of the wistaria tree. The pool is the ideal place to relax and enjoy the 360° panorama.

Our Acommodation:

Full board, Falf board, Bed and Breakfast Accommodations. Holiday week Accommodation with Art Tours.
You can choose the best for your Italy Vacation.
Some people are just passing through and the house provides a tranquil stopping point between art cities. But there is always time to have a chat, to try our traditional organic food, to taste a good glass of Chianti wine, to wake up with the smell of the coffee and of the home baked bread.
For others a visit here becomes a voyage of discovery, an opportunity to learn about the culture, traditions, art and people of Tuscany.
Never more that 12 people will be in the house at the same time.
Quality is a world that requires time and attentions!

Our Activities: 

Whether for a week or few days, by yourself or with your family and children, all are welcome here. For everybody the possibility to choose some activities that we offer here at Tasty Tuscany: learn how to cook our traditional family food with Pat or join Paolo's group on excursion, visit a pecorino cheese producer, artistists on their workshop, take a walk on the ridge of the rolling hills, along the ancient pilgrim paths, go bird watching at the Massaciuccoli Lake, or horse backride in San Rossore National Pine Forest Park along the beach, have a massage with the relaxing Mediterranean herb's oil.
Weekly or long weekend packages are already set, but asking Pat's help you can have your tailored holiday!
