Tuscan farms are real residential complexes composing of the master`s house, where the landlord and his family lived in the summer, and the peasant house, the house where the "mezzadro" (or half tenant) who tended the farm lived with his family.

If you are willing to spend your holidays in Tuscany together with your relatives and friends, a farmhouse could be the ideal accommodation for you.

In the last few years, many farms and farmhouses in Tuscany have been renovated and provided with all modern comforts (satellite TV, Wi-Fi Internet access, washing machine, dishwasher, and so on), with an eye to preserve the typical and charming elements of these rural lodgings.

There you have, then, cosy and warm rooms with traditional terracotta-tiled floors, stone walls and wood-beamed ceilings; and outdoor, porches furnished for pleasant meals with traditional Tuscan dishes (bread soup or "ribollita", tomato soup, "fettunta", Florentine-style steak, stewed wild boar, cinta senese cured meat, and other Tuscan specialities).

And do not forget that many farms and farmhouses in Tuscany have modern and well-equipped swimming pools for the exclusive use of guests.

Last but not least, a farmhouse is also the ideal accommodation for those who want to take their four-footed friends on holiday with them!

In short, although in the past the Tuscan farms and farmhouses were only humble country houses, today they are real paradises on hearth where to spend one-or-more-week relaxing holidays in close contact with nature.
