Hello,
We are planning a month in Italy and I've posted regarding Piedmont and Bologna area.
Now, I would love to know which is your favorite Town/village in Tuscany to unwind for a week that offers good restaurants, markets, quiet evenings and a beautiful setting. We will have a car, but train is also a good option for a day trip. Would love to stay in a place that has a full kitchen and make some meals with things purchased in the markets. (Outside the town, in a villa/apartment etc. would also work for us) A place to relax before our last week in the Amalfi coast.
I've stayed in Orvieto 6 nights and loved it..(husband wasn't along-sister trip, and I would stay again) Cortona was a base for a week years ago and that was lovely as well. I would prefer someplace I/we haven't been to. We are looking at Lucca:any comments on Lucca and if you loved it, where did you stay? Any other places you stayed for a week that offered enough to do and not too sleepy?
We will then stay in Sorrento for a week after Tuscany, and that is already decided on.
Thanks in advance: just Tuscany area is uncertain.
Greatly appreciate all the help everyone gives on this site.
