Tuscany savings are a grape idea

Two recently-restored old cottages on a spectacular vineyard in Tuscany have a 15% rental discount on remaining weeks in July and August with Invitation to Tuscany.

The charming homes are on a 450-acre Chianti Classico wine estate where guests can tour the cellars and sample the produce. The spacious and well-equipped properties are arranged around a large courtyard and share an outdoor pool in extensive grounds. There are fabulous, far-reaching countryside views and an excellent restaurant and simple trattoria are within a short walk. Siena is seven miles away and Florence a 40-minute drive.

The houses are named after Italian grape varieties, with Malvasia, sleeping four, now £1,193 a week (saving £211) from July 2 – September 2; and Sangiovese, sleeping six, £1,403 (saving £248). Prices are for rental only.
