News from Villa San Rocco, Tuscany — pre-Valentine's Shmalentines
23 January 2012
On the weekend of 3rd February the newly restorated Villa San Rocco, Tuscany is running an Italian Language & Feasting weekend. There will be 3 hours a day (Sat/Sun) Italian language teaching, a casual tour of Lucca, walks in the forest (men may show off by wrestling wild boar), else an afternoon skiing pending a sudden flurry at nearby Abetone. INCLUDED are stylish ensuite accommodation, full Italian dinners on Friday and Saturday nights, breakfast each morning, evening aperitivi/winetasting, and transfers from Pisa airport.

The price for a re-loving couple is £195. Just get yourselves here!
