Pistachio Pesto

This home is a true haven nestled right in the heart of Arezzo. With its luscious garden and rustic interior, it's the perfect place to kick back and relax away from the hustle and bustle. Step inside, and you'll be enchanted by the traditional touches, from the terracotta tiles to the original fireplace and wooden ceiling beams. Budding chefs can whip up their favourite dishes in the kitchen, using the fresh Italian herbs provided. And, the leafy garden provides the ideal spot for a sundowner – open a bottle of Pinot Grigio and relax on the patio as you make some plans for the following day. The hilltop Arezzo Cathedral is not to be missed – admire the painted ceilings before strolling through the medieval town, gelato in hand. The nearby Piazza Grande is one of the most beautiful in the region, and is an awe-inspiring setting for a coffee or something stronger. And, if you want to explore more of eastern Tuscany then there's plenty to see just a short drive away – from vineyards to castles, there's something for everyone.
