15 Mar 2019

 

It is true that they would deserve a gift every day, but Father's Day is perhaps the most appropriate occasion to show our affection with a special gift. If you are looking for an original and effective idea, then why not try a vacation to Italy? You would have a really wide choice available, able to satisfy both parents who would like a break in nature; and those who already want to breathe the sea breeze.

Protective, affectionate, sometimes a bit gruff, sportsmen or lazy, lovers of nature or art: Father's Day 2019 is a moment dedicated to them all. A customized solution will, therefore, be more appreciated. You will be able to impress and give them a moment of tranquillity at this time of year.

Gruppo UNA offers 3 special destinations for 3 different "types" of dad: we certainly would not want to bring to the beach those who just can't stand saltiness. Or forcing long lines to museums who are not fond of art. You will find the perfect gift for Father's Day 2019 based on the character and personal tastes. Book the rooms and get ready for a memorable parent-child vacation.

Travelling with Dad among the lands of Tuscany: for those who love contact with nature.

If your father is the type who loves:

  • long walks in the countryside,
  • outdoor activities, to be carried out far from the large and chaotic cities,
  • local traditions and flavours,

then the ideal trip to celebrate Father's Day 2019 with him must take place in Tuscany. This fascinating Region certainly needs no introduction. On this occasion, however, we invite you to consider it not only as the cradle of the Renaissance and of exceptional artistic beauties. Its hills and its countryside, in fact, are a perfect destination to spend a few days immersed in nature.

For example, UNAHOTELS Poggio dei Medici Toscana is the perfect retreat for all golf lovers; or for those who have never tried golf but want to get closer to a sport in the countryside. This Golf Hotel, whose field has been named "Italy's Best Golf Course 2018" at the World Golf Awards, offers spacious courses and suites and is located in the lush Mugello Valley, not far from the charming medieval village of Scarperia.

The Tuscan hills are the perfect place to recover your energy, enjoy the spectacle of nature without sacrificing comfort. Choosing one of the Fattoria Santo Stefano estates, in fact, you can spend a splendid break from the poolside routine and in a context that is a symbol of Tuscany.
