Farmhouse in Tuscany: the rediscovery of a simple and healthy lifestyle
Relax, nature and good food. This is all that awaits you in the agritourism farms in Tuscany, which have made hospitality their guiding light.
Gliding towards the coast, however, the magic of the Maremma appears, with its horses running on the beach and the alternation of free and wild beaches with others, much more equipped and full of all types of tourist services.
But beyond the visual suggestion, the Tuscan hills and the whole region in general are also appreciated thanks to their gastronomic tradition, which places them at the top of the desires of all those who love to eat and drink well.
Farmhouse in Tuscany: when relaxation is combined with services
The Chianti, the Valdelsa, the Val d’Orcia, the Mugello. All names well known all over the world and not only because the hills of Tuscany are one of the most fascinating landscapes in our peninsula, but because the renowned hospitality of its people in recent years has become slow.
If you are thinking of treating yourself to a holiday, know that choosing a farmhouse in Tuscany means above all dedicating quality time to yourself. Forget the hustle and bustle of the city. Here, pleasantly surrounded by greenery, between vineyards and olive groves, you can rediscover a new dimension, made up of moments scheduled by the transit of the sun and not by clocks and annoying morning alarms.
Characterized by the frank and generous hospitality of the Tuscans, the farmhouses offer you the opportunity to live away from the daily tram tram, without having to give up the comforts you are used to. Think, you won't have to give up even the wi-fi, even if you can bet on it: you won't even think about emails and social networks for a second!
The varied offer of the food and wine tradition of Tuscany
Staying in a farmhouse in Tuscany will also allow you to deepen its culinary tradition. The real driving force of farmhouses, in fact, is the ancient agricultural knowledge, which allows your guests to offer you delicious menus, based on products that they themselves produce. The added value of the zero-kilometer supply chain is what will allow you to taste the delicate flavor of fresh eggs, freshly milked milk, homemade cheeses, oil recently released from the mill and pies stuffed with jam that arrives directly from the orchard of the farmhouse.
But this will be just the beginning, because most of the farmhouses in Tuscany boast respectable menus, thanks to which you can discover the ancient flavors, from ribollita to grilled colonnata lard, passing through the famous Castagnaccio and, of course, from renowned Florentine steak.
And what about the wines? It will not have escaped you, in fact, that Tuscan wines are among the finest in our country! Sangiovese is the most widespread grape variety in Italy and Tuscany, which gives life to Chianti, which from the eighteenth century onwards is produced following a strict disciplinary. In agritourisms it is very common to involve guests in tastings, during which you can taste and appreciate wines such as Morellino di Scansano, Brunello di Montalcino and Vermentino.
And at the end of the meal, perhaps accompanied by a couple of Cantucci, the famous Tuscan almond biscuits, you can enjoy the suggestion of the landscape while sipping a glass of Vin Santo, whose scent immediately brings to mind the sense of conviviality and hospitality of the people of the region.
All this is a stay in Tuscany. A good reason to leave and bring home the memory of unique tastes, scents and emotions.
