Spring Break in Tuscany at Agriturismo Diacceroni

We returned to Tuscany for our April break and I was so excited for the trip! We had such a great time the first time around with Nana and Pops. But since then, it felt like we needed to see other parts of Italy before returning to a place we'd already been. All of our trips to Italy have been wonderful, but there is just a special kind of magic in Tuscany. We told each other that we should have come back sooner! 

I booked cheap flights to Pisa and then spent some time researching kid-friendly agriturismos. Because while I just wanted to sit in the sun sipping wine and admiring the scenery for a week, we knew we needed more to keep the kids happy. We'd greatly enjoyed where we'd stayed the first time, but didn't think it had enough for bigger kids. I booked us a very affordable 3-bedroom apartment at Agriturismo Diacceroni, which looked to have a lot of fun things to do. We invited Oma and Opa to join us and had such a wonderful week. 

There was a heatwave when we arrived and we took advantage with some time at the pool before the welcome buffet dinner. 

Way too cold for me, but Maeve jumped in and Pete and Opa joined her.

Three dinners were included for the week: the Saturday welcome dinner, a pizza night, and a pasta night. The tables were set up on the lawn and it was quite a popular place- there were three different bachelorette parties! Communication wasn't great at dinner time so we just kept sending the kids up to see what was put out. There was a musician and you could buy wine from the Agriturismo (5-8 euros a bottle) from reception. My kind of party! 

We could see the ice cream hut from our apartment- a highlight for the kids.

After the kids went to bed each night, Pete and I binged The Ripley series on Netflix. Fun to watch it while in Italy!
