Tuscany
Tuscany is a delight at any time of year. It is a cultural paradise. There are many open air concerts to savour, particularly in June and July and numerous places of historic interest. The Tuscans are proud of their heritage, their wine, their cuisine…
Montecatini is situated at the foot of the Pistoian mountains and enjoys fresh breezes which complement the Mediterranean climate to make ideal holiday temperatures. In July you can expect a temperature of 28 to 30 degrees

Testimonials
Hello Harry
What a fantastic four days we all had together in Tuscany. Sheila and I are still pinching ourselves to make sure it wasn’t a dream!
We felt that we made maximum use of the time we had available thanks to your excellent organisation and Dante’s invaluable local knowledge and expertise.
The hotel exceeded our expectations and our room was extremely comfortable in all respects. The staff, without exception, were helpful, efficient and friendly and made us feel most welcome. We particularly liked the location of the hotel with its proximity to the town and excellent outlook.
Our evening meals were a wonderful opportunity for the group to get to know one another and were a memorable part of the holiday.
Altogether, an excellent break in a beautiful part of Italy with a great group
of people.
Kind regards Sheila & Christopher Clark
