Take yourself on a Tuscany holiday

How to get there: a great way to get to Tuscany is by taking a flight with EasyJet. These guys travel from the UK to Pisa regularly, and for great prices too.

Where to stay: Florence, Tuscany’s sparkling capital, boasts an endless number of hotels, so we’re here to help narrow it down! Consider staying at the B&B Hotel Firenze Centro. It is located in the historic Santa Croce neighbourhood of Florence, close to the River Arno. Its rooms offer free Wi-Fi and LCD TVs with Sky channels. It is also less than one kilometre from Florence's Duomo and its famous Ponte Vecchio bridge. A night in a double room starts from £90.

What to see: here’s a small sample of things to visit in Tuscany: Florence’s Duomo and Uffizi Gallery (home to Michelangelo’s David statue), the Leaning Tower of Pisa, and the beautiful, terracotta-coloured cities, of Siena, Lucca and San Gimignano.
