Fabulous Tuscan Farmhouse
Erta is a completely modernised, yet traditional, Tuscan Farmhouse with whitewashed interiors, thick stone walls and high ceilings. The cicadas sing in the evenings and the sheep bells tinkle in the evening - the only noises to disturb the tranquility and beauty of this special corner of Tuscany. We stayed at Erta last summer with two other families, and there was more than enough room for everybody. We each had our own family bathroom and two bedrooms - still with rooms to spare! The large kitchen easily accommodates multiple cooks, ready for a large gathering of people for the evening meal outside or inside during the heat of the day. There is a garden with places to sit and read in the day, and a few steps up the road is a huge shared swimming pool, with fantastic views across the Tuscan hills. Only half an hour from Florence, and in reach of Tuscany's finest art and architecture, this is the perfect location to relax and unwind, whether enjoying Tuscany's renowned food and wine, exploring its ancient culture, or swimming in a pool to the restful sound of the cicadas. And if you've eaten too much of Corzano Paterno's delicious home-produced cheese and wine, then ask for a local restaurant recommendation - you will not be disappointed!
