What to Look for in a Tuscany VRBO

The essential features for a Tuscany villa: private pool (not shared), air conditioning (essential June–August), outdoor dining area, and proximity to a village with a bar and alimentari. Many VRBO Tuscany properties are working farms (agriturismi) — these often include complimentary wine and olive oil and are outstanding value.

Getting Around

A hire car is essential for a Tuscany villa holiday — most rural properties are not accessible by public transport. The roads are beautiful and driving between hilltop towns is part of the experience. Budget around £200–£300/week for a mid-size hire car with insurance. UK driving licence is accepted in Italy.

Food and Wine from Your Villa

The best Tuscany villa holidays are built around local food shopping and cooking. Visit the weekly markets in Siena, Arezzo and Greve in Chianti. Buy wine direct from the vineyard. Pick up local pecorino, prosciutto, pici pasta, ribollita ingredients. Tuscany is one of the world's great food regions — lean into it.
