The offer goes from budget (often family-owned) accommodation facilities to luxurious holiday farms provided with the most exclusive services. Spending some days in the countryside means not only going back in time to re-discover the ancient peasant traditions but also indulging in total relaxation without being forced to renounce to modern comfort.

• While looking for a holiday farm in Tuscany consider that the new regional classification system operates on three-wheat-ear basis (the old ratings awarded up to five ears of wheat)The ears of wheat are awarded according to the higher or lower "rural quality; "comfort" is not considered in its consumerist meaning.

• The first ear of wheat is awarded to those accommodating facilities meeting general requirements concerning hygienic-sanitary conditions and public security (first-aid equipment, information sheet reporting emergency contact details, outdoor illumination, adequate furniture in the rooms, final cleansing at guests` departure, management of the farm according to agronomic practices and nature- and animal-respectful techniques, etc.).

• Optional requisites concern parameters linked to the peculiarity of farm-holiday businesses (presence of common recreational rooms, restaurant, room equipped for tasting and/or selling local products, riding stable, handicraft courses, etc.).
