Agriturismo in Tuscany

 

A Tuscan agriturismo is what you are looking for? There are over 5,000 of them! Of hugely varying quality, however. How are you going to find the right one? I am Margot and I’ve selected the 100 very best agriturismos in Tuscany for you. All the ones on my website have been personally visited by me and carefully selected on the basis of their quality, atmosphere and hospitality.

 

We are sorry!

Unfortunately we have no agriturismo available that meets your criteria.

You might have better luck if you change your search criteria, for example:

  • Select another region
  • Select other dates
  • Select a period from Saturday to Saturday
  • Remove some facilities

 

Tuscany, a region to enjoy

Tuscany is a lovely region. Its gently rolling hills dotted with those characteristic rows of cypresses. Its picturesque medieval villages. And the cultural riches of Florence, Volterra and Siena, to name but a few. And on top of all that, Tuscany has many beautiful beaches. 

 

Vacationing in an agriturismo 

Vacationing in an agriturismo means relaxing in the quiet and beauty of the countryside. You will stay in a luxury accommodation in or near a farm.  A comfortable apartment, for instance, a luxury villa or a stylish Bed&Breakfast room. Practically all of the agriturismos have a pool. Some have their own restaurant. Here you can enjoy the region’s delicious dishes and wines, and homemade produce from the farm. Are you holidaying with young children? Then pick a child-friendly agriturismo.

 

On the coast or in the hills

I have beautiful agriturismos all over Tuscany. Some are close to the sea, others more inland, in the hills. And we have agriturismos near Florence, Pisa, Volterra, Siena, Lucca and San Gimignano. 

 

Trust my advice

Need advice? Do not hesitate to contact me. I have lived in Italy for 20 years, 10 of them in Tuscany. I know the region, language and the culture well. Bear in mind, though, that I have agriturismos throughout Italy. In Le Marche, Sicily, Lake Como, Lake Garda and Piedmont, for example. All of them have been visited and selected by me. You can safely rely on my advice.  

P.S. Because I’ve exclusively selected the most beautiful agriturismos, they quickly get booked up. Especially in the summer months. So, if you’re looking for an agriturismo in Tuscany, my advice is: don’t delay!

Discover Pienza and Bar Il Casello

The charming town of Pienza, located in the heart of the Val d'Orcia, is a Tuscan gem that is on the UNESCO World Heritage List for good reason. The town has picturesque streets, cosy squares and panoramic views. A walk down the romantic Via del Bacio (the street of the kiss) is an absolute must. And then don't forget - while kissing - to take a photo under the famous street sign. For a nice cappuccino in the morning or a delicious aperitivo with a local wine in the late afternoon, I usually go to Bar Il Casello. This bar has a terrace with one of the most beautiful views of Pienza, over the undulating landscape of the Val d'Orcia and Monte Amiata in the distance. Especially at sunset, this is the place to be!

The Skipper Beach Club in Castiglione della Pescaia

The beach of Castiglione della Pescaia is, in my opinion, one of the most beautiful on the Tuscan coast. Extensive sandy beach, surrounded by dunes and pine trees, with clear blue water. There is a nice relaxed atmosphere and good facilities. My regular spot is Beach Club Lo Skipper, where you can lounge on comfortable sunbeds with umbrellas and enjoy delicious food. My favorite time of the day? In the early evening, for an aperitivo. With a glass of prosecco and the enchanting sunset over the sea, it's ultimate enjoyment.

Acqua Village Cecina and Follonica

Ideal for a refreshing day out in summer: with 7 pools and more than 2 kilometers of slides, you won't get bored here easily! The water park in Hawaiian atmosphere offers many different attractions, suitable for adults, teenagers and small children. For example, there are several large children's pools (up to 50 cm deep) with various water games for the little ones. But teenagers also have a great time in the huge wave pool, the relax pool or on one of the many spectacular slides. The Acqua Village has two water parks. For the northern part of Tuscany in Cecina. https://www.acquavillage.it/cecina

For those who have booked an agriturismo in the southern part of Tuscany, there is a similar water park in Follonica! https://www.acquavillage.it/en/acqua-village-follonica

The hidden little beach, Cala Violina

This special little beach in Tuscany can only be reached on foot or by mountain bike/ e-bike. Fortunately, because that is why it is still unspoiled. After a hike through a Mediterranean pine forest, a pearly white beach and azure blue sea awaits you. The name “violin” comes from the melody that the tiny quartz grains make as you walk along the beach. The most suggestive and beautiful route leading to Cala Violina starts at Il Puntone di Scarlino, near the restaurant Il Cantuccio. The approximately 4.5 km can be done on foot or by bicycle, and you will first pass Cala Martina beach. I walked this route with my family and really recommend it. But there is also a shorter route (1.5 km) to the bay and it starts from the Cala Violina parking lot. Both routes can also be walked by children. With a stroller you can only take the short route. 

Om de bezoekers aantallen te reguleren moet je in de zomermaanden (1 juni - 30 september) reserveren. https://calaviolinascarlino.it/it

Medieval castle of Monteriggioni

Florence, Siena, Volterra, San Gimignano, Pisa, Lucca, .... Tuscany has so many towns worth seeing that it's hard to choose. But the tiny town of Monteriggioni, 15 km from Siena, is not to be missed. The castle is located on top of a hill and the city wall of more than 500 meters with 14 towers and 2 entrance gates is still completely intact. You will imagine yourself in medieval atmospheres. Inside the walls are some terraces, bars and a leather store with colorful shoes. There are restaurants in Monteriggioni, but personally I like to go for lunch at Bar dell'Orso, 500 m. outside the castle. Make sure you get there around 12:30 because after that it gets very crowded with locals. I can recommend the Ribollita (Tuscan meal soup) or the traditional pasta from Siena, Pici al ragù senese.

Il Giardino dei Tarocchi

The Giardino dei Tarocchi near Capalbio in the Maremma area, is a very charming open-air museum where children can experience modern art. Other than in an art gallery, here they will not waste time wondering about the meaning of the 22 giant and colorful works of Niki de Saint, they will simply live them. The magnificent sculptures are made of steel and concrete and covered with mirrors, glass and colored ceramics. A unique experience for all ages! https://ilgiardinodeitarocchi.it

Amusement Park Cavallino Matto

In Marina di Castagneto Carducci is Cavallino Matto, the largest amusement park in Tuscany. The park is in the middle of a beautiful 100,000-square-meter pine forest and a few kilometers from the Tuscan coast. There are a number of picnic tables and bars where you can buy food and drinks. There are also several drinking fountains where you can refill your water bottles. There are 23 fantastic attractions and 5 great shows, suitable for children of all ages. A real Family Park for a fun day out! https://www.cavallinomatto.it
