Shopping
Italy is a shopper’s paradise with its many small beautifully displayed and brightly lit shops. In the big towns you can spend a day window-shopping and admiring the many items that you can buy. In between the shops there are various cafes and ice cream parlours that have an incredible assortment of snacks and ice cream, all artistically laid out. In the smaller villages there are more traditional shops that offer a quaint setting and give you a good feel for the traditional Tuscany way of village life.



We have put together some of the main places where you can shop in the towns near our villas and private houses. These are just to give you an idea of what is available, in all locations there may be other shops that you will be able to explore and browse through. When shopping remember that most supermarkets do not accept credit cards.
Click here to select from our list of Tuscany villas to rent all of which are ideal to visit many of the shops mentioned.
