Festivals and Seasonal Events in Tuscany:

There are many events all year round throughout Tuscany, but many are concentrated during the summer.
Many 'sagre', or festivals dedicated around a particular local product, start in early summer and continue on through the autumn when local specialties (truffles, wine, olive oil, marroni chestnuts) come into season.
In Versilia you will find a lot of sagre organised by the various 'contrade' which give life to the Palio dei Micci (1st Sunday of May). They offer typical dishes (tordelli and panzanelle) in the evenings of July, August and mid September.
If you are coming to Tuscany during other periods of the year, don't worry as there is always something to see or do (or eat!) then as well.
For specific events, it is best to contact the local tourism office.

Please, contact the owners for furhter details:.They will be glad to answer to all your questions.

    Wir waren mit unseren Kindern bei Gemma und Andrea 3 Wochen. Beide sind wunderbare Gastgeber, sehr hilfsbereit und herzlich. Wir bekamen von ihnen viele Ausflugstipps und Empfehlungen, die unsere Reise sehr bereichert haben. Das Haus liegt in einer sehr ruhigen Lage, zwischen Olivenbäumen. Garten ist geschmackvoll gestaltet, man kann da grillen oder die Sonnenbäder genießen. Die Wohnung war mit allen nötigen Sachen ausgestattet, authentisch, mit viel Liebe zum Detail. Bis zum nächsten Strand sind es 10 Minuten mit dem Auto. Außerdem sind viele Sehenswürdigkeiten der Nordtoskana und Ligurien gut erreichbar. Die Ortschaften sind malerisch und wunderschön, wir kommen gerne wieder.

    Das Haus „Antico Borgo“ ist wunderschön, liebevoll und traditionell gebaut. Es ist sehr sehr sauber, geräumig, sehr mit Liebe gepflegt und vor allen absolut ruhig gelegen. Die Küche ist sehr gut ausgestattet und enthielt alles was wir benötigten. Es gibt einen großen Garten mit mehren Obst- und Olivenbäume, Wal- und Haselnussbaum, Trauben, Rosmarin, Salbei, alles was das Herz begehrt. Wir konnten uns auf die Sitz- und Liegestühle unter der Bäumen oder dem Sonnenschirm wunderbar erholen, oder einfach ans Meer nach Forte dei Marmi gefahren. Die Hausbesitzer, Gemma und Andrea sind sehr fürsorglich, rücksichtsvoll und immer bedacht, dass es uns gut geht. Wir haben mehrere super tolle Empfehlungen für Restaurants, Sehenswürdigkeiten, Tagesausflüge bekommen, die sehr hilfreich waren. Jederzeit gastfreundlich und hilfsbereit. Unvergesslich, wie die sich um unsere Tochter gekümmert haben, als die einmal einen Schwächeanfall hatte. Danke nochmal dafür. Die Einwohner sind freundlich und hilfsbereit, es macht Freude diese Region zu entdecken und kennen zu lernen. Toskana ist wunderschön, tolle Städte und Landschaften, wunderbare alte Dörfer und sehr schöne Strände. Wie schon Goethe sagte: „Die Toskana liegt nicht in Italien, sondern Italien in der Toskana!“ Es hat einfach alles gepasst, wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen und würden gerne wieder kommen.

    Das wunderschöne traditionelle Haus „Antico Borgo“, umgeben von einem großen Garten, liegt zwischen dem Meer und den apuanischen Alpen. Die Ferienwohnung „Antiche Travi“ geht über zwei Etagen und ist nicht nur stilvoll, sondern auch liebevoll und mit zahlreichen hübschen Details eingerichtet. Die Ausstattung, besonders in der Küche, ist hochwertig und es ist alles vorhanden, was man braucht. Im Garten stehen zahlreiche Oliven- und Obstbäume und die Sitzgrüppchen und Liegestühle mit Sonnenschirmen laden zum Verweilen ein. In einer von Hecken abgetrennten Ecke gibt es eine Tischtennisplatte, einen Basketballkorb sowie einen Platz zum Wäschetrocknen. Die Hausbesitzer, Gemma und Andrea, zeichnen sich durch große Gastfreundschaft und Herzlichkeit aus. Sie geben hervorragende Tipps für Ausflüge und Restaurants und jederzeit äußerst hilfsbereit. Wir haben uns in der „Antico Borgo“ von der ersten Minute an sehr, sehr wohl gefühlt und werden auf alle Fälle wiederkommen. Ein Paradies in paradiesischer Umgebung!

    Prima Toskana

    Der Aufenthalt war toll (Garten, Haus, Wohnung...einfach prima)...und der Ausblick erst. Die Vermieter waren richtig nett und fürsorglich, hatten immer Tipps für tolle Ausflüge parat. Geheimtipp Malboco (ganz in der Nähe). Wenn Toskana dann ist dies eine ausgezeichnete Basis für einen prima Familienurlaub...kann man nur empfehlen.

    The perfect place!!!
    The perfect place!!!
    We have been travelling to Italy for some time now and this is by far the best place we ever stayed, everything was perfect! The ancient house has charm, but also all modern facilities. It was very clean, tastefully decorated and Gemma and Andrea were the perfect hosts! All from waiting for us, even though we were very late to inviting us for a homemade cake or some bruschetta with their own olive oil and...even more! They are so nice and did everything possible to make us feel welcomed and "at home" in every way, but never being intrusive. The house is set in a beautiful and quite surrounding, with a huge garden and olivegrove all around, but everyhing is a few minutes walk. You have spectacular views from the windows and the garden of the Apuan Alps at short distance, just like the sea, with its fantastic sandy beaches. There is also a lot to do nearby if you want to: some of Europe's biggest caves, pictoresque villages, lively towns as Pietrasanta and beautiful art cities as Lucca, Pisa, Siena and San Gimignano. The 5 Terre a must! We would highly recomend this farmhouse for anyone looking for a peacefull place to enjoy his holiday at full. Thank you again Gemma and Andrea! All the best, hoping to see you again, maybe next year! S.

    We stayed at Antiche Travi for one week. It was our first time in this beautifull place but won't be the last. The house and their owners (Gemma and Andrea) are just perfect. They made us feel very welcome from start on. The appartment is beautiful, very clean and everything you need is in it and more. Gemma and Andrea are very helpfull in giving you tips about the surroundings. Lots of nice places to visit very nearby, the beach is only a 5 minute drive away from the house and also very clean and comfortable. We wil defenatly go back when visiting Italy and Toscany.

    Sfeervol huis gevuld met brocante.

    De eigenaresse Gemma is een liefhebster van antiek en brocante, spreekt goed Engels en is zeer gastvrij. Het is een uitstekende uitvalsbasis voor bezoeken aan Lucca, Pistoia maar vergeet vooral Pietrasanta niet. Wat ons betreft een stuk leuker dan het over-the-top Forte Dei Marmi.
