Have you ever wondered what life on a farm is like? Have a different and exciting holiday with the help of our agriturismo accommodation in Tuscany, Italy. Live on a farm with a real farmer and learn how to make fresh pasta, grow fruits and veggies or maybe even how to milk a cow, if you are up to it.
The word agriturismo is a combination of the Italian words agricoltura and turismo. Most of the farms in Italy are on a small plot of lands and with the coming of the modern times they couldn't make ends meet. Farming in Italy became much less profitable and many farmers were forced to abandon their homes and move to the city to look for sustainable work, leaving large farmhouses, built for multiple families now hosted just by one. That’s why the Italian government introduced the concept of the “agriturismo" in 1985. By adding a tourism component, these farms can remain operational. As such, they preserve the landscape, farmhouses and local communities, and in this way agriturismo is a very sustainable form of tourism.
Feel like a part of the family with the famous Italian hospitality. Eat natural and fresh food coming directly from the garden. Most of the accommodations are pet friendly, in a separate building from your host and stylishly furnished. Some even have swimming pools.

The Apuan Alps are located in the north part of the region, with their characteristic snow-white marble and deep abysses.
