Tuscany, 22 April 2015: To Tuscany is offering families significant savings on holidays at a selection of its high-quality villas and apartments during the spring half-term and summer school holidays.

The villa-booking website is keeping prices down by offering rentals this summer at sterling prices that are 15 per cent lower than last year. Unlike many other villa companies, To Tuscany doesn't pre-buy euros, so can make the most of the current favourable rate of exchange.

Plus, the Tuscany villa specialist is offering Thursday arrivals during the summer school holidays on selected properties, enabling families to save hundreds of pounds on flights.

For example, La Capannina (pictured above), a two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment in Chianti, with access to shared swimming pool and tennis courts, is available for the week beginning Thursday 20 August for £1,225 in total. Flights to Pisa cost from £121 with Ryanair on 20 August, £50 less than the following Saturday, when they rise to £171, saving a family of four up to £200. Further examples can be offered on request.

To Tuscany is a safe portal through which customers can book at the best price, no added fees, direct with villa owners. Multiple images of each property are available to view to get a real feel for what each villa is like. Plus every page has information about what to do and where to go in the area. There is further useful content on the site about activities, from local festivals to mountain-biking routes at http://www.to-tuscany.com/local-tuscany/, and it's possible to select information and tailor-make a printable Tuscany guide at http://www.to-tuscany.com/infobook/.

The site allows customers to book direct with owners yet benefit from the peace of mind of paying through a secure portal.
