Tone up in TUSCANY

Head to Italy for a trip that's a treat for body and soul

- ALI HORSFALL

Want more from your next holiday than a fly-andflop? Are you tempted to travel solo for some much-needed me-time? Perhaps you want to get fitter? An activity break blends new experiences with stunning destinations. And there couldn't be a more picture-perfect place to try a group Pilates holiday than Tuscany. Here, you can enjoy a wellness getaway full of rich cultural experiences and mouth-watering food.

Relax and reset

Nestled in the countryside, and just a scenic 50-minute drive south from Pisa airport, is the impressive honey-stoned Villa Ricrio in the hamlet of Guardistallo. A beautifully restored Tuscan manor house surrounded by silvery olive groves and arching vineyards, you’ll feel any stress melting away as you unpack.
