Pilates Holidays at Villa Maria
Dating back to the turn of the beginning of the 18th Century Villa Maria is an ancient property of the Bonaparte family. Recently subtly restored Villa Maria is ideally placed at the foot of San Miniato's hill, a historical village full of monuments and cultural activities, and famous for the production of white truffles.
Villa Maria is situated in wonderful gardens with a swimming pool surrounded by rich, relaxing and evocative natural scenary. Ancient Olive groves and green meadows make for an ambient mix of shadows and quiet places: the perfect place to relax and inspire the body and mind.
