TUSCANY ITALY Home to both sprawling urban centres and tranquil pastoral hills, Tuscany is a region full of Italian culture, history and flavours. From the impressive cavalcade of palazzos, stunning domes and romantic cobbled streets in Florence, to the world-famous Leaning Tower of Pisa, and the rural landscape of olive groves, fertile fields and vineyards in the southern parts, this is a part of Italy where holidaymakers can fill
their boots with amazing adventures and experiences. The cultural heart of Tuscany is undoubtedly Florence, which is said to be the birthplace of the Renaissance. Here, visitors can marvel at invaluable pieces of art produced by Leonardo da Vinci, Botticelli and Michelango, while being surrounded by the beautifully preserved medieval buildings that abound in the
UNESCO Heritage Site-listed centre of the city. Take a couple of hours out of your itinerary to wander through the vast collection of Renaissance masterpieces at the Uffizi Gallery, or head to the Galleria dell’Accademia where you can see the famous statue of David by Michelangelo. After this, walk along the Arno River until you come to the Ponte Vecchio. Strolling across this bridge, with the old
shops and buildings aligning it, will give you the impression that you’ve travelled back in time. Further afield you’ll find the charming towns of Pisa and Livorno, where you can explore the medieval legacy of the notorious Medicis further, as well as sample lots of great Tuscan food in one of the many restaurants that abound in this enchanting part of the world.
Stay 6 nights in TUSCANY at the
San Ruffino Resort A gorgeous castle hotel that really brings a fairy-tale feel to your Italian holiday, the San Ruffino Resort offers a unique mix of old and new – with the modern facilities contrasting its historic façade. Set in breath-taking Tuscany, the local surroundings are just as impressive as the hotel itself. Resorts and communes like Pisa, Ponsacco, and Volterra are all within a 30-minute drive of the hotel – making it incredibly easy to explore the gorgeous landscape. Set over two hectares of verdant parkland, San Ruffino Resort has an outdoor pool to swim in, while there are thermal baths nearby in Casciana Terme if you need a little extra help relaxing. The hotel’s restaurant is a quaint, rustic bistro – serving up authentic Tuscan cuisine for lunch and dinner to go alongside the buffet breakfast. There is a separate children’s area for any little ones, while accommodation comes complete with everything you need for a family stay. Please note: The outdoor swimming pool is open to adults and children seasonally from 15th April to 20th October. These opening times are dependent on weather conditions.
Stay in a
Junior Suite Housed in a restored 17th-century castle, these suites have been tastefully modernised with great facilities. The beautiful interiors still preserve the original architectural details of the building with frescoed ceilings and wooden beams while guests can expect complimentary Wi-Fi, a spacious en-suite bathroom, and a comfortable double bed. Other amenities include air conditioning, a flat screen satellite television, and tea and coffee making facilities.

THINGS TO SEE NEARBY (For informational purposes only)
The Leaning Tower of Pisa An iconic landmark that truly can’t be missed out on, the Leaning Tower of Pisa is a 40-minute drive from the hotel. This elaborately adorned 14th-century tower measures a height of 56 metres at its tallest point, and can be admired from the bottom, or tickets are available if you want to climb to the top.
San Gimignano Often called the medieval Manhattan, San Gimignano is a town made up of picturesque stone towers, while also being surrounded by an expansive countryside filled with vineyards that produce Vernaccia wine. A visit here isn’t complete without seeing the Piazza del Duomo, or admiring the views of the Tuscan landscape from the Torre Grossa.
Uffizi Gallery in Florence Lovers of art and culture will be in their element at Uffizi Gallery, a prominent 16th-century museum that houses a vast collection of Primitive and Renaissance paintings and sculptures. Worth every minute of the hour-long drive to the neighbouring region of Florence, the Uffizi Gallery is ranked as the 25th mostvisited art museum in the world, making it an unmissable attraction during your Tuscan getaway.
