Walking in Tuscany

Our base for this trip is Agriturismo Braccicorti, a traditional stone farmhouse on the lower slopes of the Apennines. On a typical Tuscan farm, it has been authentically renovated and is surrounded by meadows, orchards, woodland and vines.



It comprises four twin/double rooms (with private bathrooms) and two apartments, with one twin/double and one single room sharing a bathroom and small kitchen area. Double or twin should be stated upon booking and the rooms with private bathrooms are on a ‘first come, first served’ basis, if requested.



There is also a dining room, comfortable living room, reading room, outside seating, terrace, golf course with a driving range and putting green, swimming pool (open throughout the season, dependent on weather). The views from the garden lead across the Serchio Valley and stretch to the Apuan Alps opposite.



Worth knowing



There is no charge for the two standard single rooms as the bathroom is shared with one of the twin rooms in the small apartment. The two single rooms are provided on a ‘first come, first served’ basis and should be requested upon booking. Double rooms for sole use can be requested two weeks prior to departure; a supplement applies for these. We cannot guarantee these have a private bathroom.





Activity Level 5 (Challenging) departures: We spend one night in a mountain refuge with communal sleeping rooms – maximum of six people to one room.
