The Tuscany region
Tuscany...a region famous for its sun, its warm weather, its beautiful hills covered with nature. In addition, the Tuscan region is full of marvellous historical town, like Florence, Siena, Pisa, San Gimignano, where to admire museums, work of arts...or just walk along the pedestrian streets which still preserve a charming historical look. If you like shopping, then you will be satisfied: Tuscany is also one of the world capitals of mode and fashion. Florence is famous for leather works; Volterra for alabaster, Impruneta for terracotta, San Gimingano for ceramics...and so on.

About 11 km away is the fascinating town of Certaldo, a medieval fortress and the native city of Boccaccio— one of the fathers of Italian literature and the author of the Decameron. San Gimignano, the well-preserved medieval city of towers is just 15 km away, while Volterra, a historic Etruscan city, can be reached driving along 43 km of the most beautiful roads in Tuscany, part of the Volterrana: the legendary road for people who love to drive through the countryside, by car or by bike! Then, if you want to taste or buy some excellent wine, you don’t have to go very far to visit the wine cellars where the most famous red wine in the world is made, Chianti Classico. Throughout the year the Tuscan towns and cities are animated by fairs, festivals, theme-celebrations and historic re-enactments from the middle ages with street markets, suppers, tastings and fireworks. Castello di Pastine, with its genuine Tuscan style offers you peace and tranquillity at the right distance from the places of major interest in Tuscany.
