Love running and the excitement of marathons but hate having to sign up a year in advance and competing in lotteries just to get a place? Well, there are some alternatives! For example, another way to get involved in Pisa's marathon weekend if you book a villa in Pisa for the 19th of December is their annual Christmas Run. Organised in conjunction with Maratona di Pisa, Pisa's official marathon event, this non-competitive run is a way to get in the marathon spirit while you also enjoy the Christmas spirit in the city and take in major attractions like the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Sounds like a perfect combo for wellness enthusiasts dreaming of a winter vacation in Tuscany!

What makes a villa in Tuscany stand out? Location is key, as we all know. A beautiful property with a pretty view is always a bonus. A villa with a pool in Tuscany is ideal for summer months and the more amenities a property has to offer the better. However, some of the best things about a villa are not necessarily visible in a property description. If the owner is especially helpful, if there are great services that add to your experience, if the neighbourhood is quiet or there are useful facilities and amenities nearby... there are often some things that only those who have already stayed in a vacation rental in Tuscany can really explain to you.
