Vacation rentals Italy - Pianaccine Farm offers vacation rentals in Italy, in the heart of Tuscany. Within the peace and quiet of the surrounding hills – an atmosphere born of centuries of cultivation, a mild climate and unspoiled nature – you can enjoy the best in Tuscan farmhouse rental accommodation.
All this and tasty typical cuisine, a friendly welcome and years of experience await you. The town of Monte Antico is located on one of the many hills of the Tuscan Maremma, an area of rich farming land in central Italy. The landscape is covered with woodland and Mediterranean scrub. Oaks, pines, bushes of juniper, wild rose and broom abound. Unspoiled and rich in natural flora, the surroundings are the perfect habitat for the many wild animals hereabout.
These vacation rentals in Italy lie amidst a natural landscape of crystal clear brooks and ancient ruins. The old skills are found alive and well in the cultivation of products such as olive oil, wine and wheat. These are ideal places for those who want to take a break from the chaotic cities and have a full immersion in the colours and tastes of the countryside, and to unwind in idyllic Tuscan farmhouse rental accommodation.
There are paths through the woods ideal for long, re-energising excursions – by foot, on mountain bike or horseback. And deep in the woods you can search for wild fruits, mushrooms or asparagus, accompanied only by the local fauna, including wild boar and deer, hares, hawks and song thrushes. The last stop before the boundary with the province of Siena is the ancient Petriolo Spa, part of the wild animal paradise of the Farma Valley. Here you will find rare species like the otter, the trout and the mountain newt, and trees otherwise rare in the region, such as the yew and beech. Few vacation rentals in Italy offer such marvellous access to the untouched flora and fauna of the country.
Although this Tuscan farmhouse rental accommodation lies in unspoiled country, you’ll find access easy, with the highways to Florence and Rome within quick reach. These are vacation rentals in Italy offering seclusion but also comfort and convenience.
