Romantic escape in Tuscany: discover your retreat between Florence and Lucca

La Toscana è da sempre una delle mete più amate dalle coppie in cerca di relax, bellezza e momenti da condividere. Ma lontano dagli itinerari più turistici, esistono angoli nascosti che offrono tutto questo con un tocco in più: tranquillità, natura e intimità.

Tuscany has always been one of the most loved destinations for couples in search of beauty, relaxation, and time together. But beyond the well-known tourist paths, there are hidden corners that offer all of this, with a little something extra: tranquillity, nature and intimacy.
If you’re looking for a romantic hideaway in Tuscany, between Florence and Lucca you’ll find perfect places for a getaway for two. A farmhouse surrounded by greenery can turn even a simple weekend into a cherished memory.
In this article I’ll share why Tuscany, and Terre di Cocomo in particular, is the perfect setting for a romantic stay and what makes a place truly special for two.

Why choose Tuscany for a romantic holiday

Tuscany has its own unique way of speaking to the heart. Its gentle hills, warm light, stone villages and slow pace create the perfect atmosphere to slow down and reconnect.

Between Florence and Lucca the countryside offers breathtaking views, quiet country roads to explore and wineries and trattorias to enjoy the best of local cuisine.

Here you’re never far from art and culture: from the hills it’s easy to reach the region’s most beautiful cities for a day of museums, gardens and historic strolls.

What makes a romantic hideaway in Tuscany special — especially at Terre di Cocomo

A true romantic retreat doesn’t need lavish luxury, just thoughtful details and a genuine sense of welcome. Here’s what we believe makes all the difference:

• bright, peaceful rooms with views of the countryside,
• slow breakfasts, preferably outdoors,
• quiet corners to read, talk, and watch the sunset,
• a scenic pool to enjoy together,
• simple gestures: a bottle of wine, a light snack, a herbal tea in the evening.

At Terre di Cocomo all of this is part of our everyday rhythm. Many couples who have stayed with us mention an “instant sense of peace”, “an atmosphere that invites connection”, and “carefully thought-out details without being intrusive”.

It has happened more than once that couples returned to Cocomo to celebrate anniversaries and sometimes even their weddings!

For Emilio and me, it’s truly special to welcome guests back year after year, and to witness how couples and families grow and evolve over time.

Experiences to share as a couple

A romantic holiday in Tuscany is also about the little experiences you create together. Here are a few ideas to make your stay even more special:

Walks through olive groves and woods

Peaceful trails starting right from Cocomo, no car needed. Perfect for walking hand in hand, with no rush.

Dinners under the stars

A table outside, the silence of the countryside, and simple, seasonal food. Dining outdoors at the farmhouse has a special flavour of its own.

Relax by the pool

Whether it’s for a swim or just to enjoy the view, our pool is one of the most loved places for couples. At Cocomo it’s where some of the sweetest moments happen.

Small daily pleasures

Breakfast on the terrace, picking a flower from the garden, reading together under a tree. These are the kinds of memories that stay with you.

The best time of the year to book your stay

Spring and early summer are ideal for enjoying blooming nature, mild temperatures and the golden light that makes every corner shine.

But September and October have their own magic too: the grape harvest, warm colours, richer seasonal dishes, and a more intimate atmosphere.
Whatever the season booking early gives you the chance to choose your ideal room, maybe one with a private terrace or a special view. Here you can find our availability

Terre di Cocomo might just be the right place for your romantic hideaway in Tuscany: simple, carefully curated, surrounded by nature, yet close to everything.

For a getaway for two, between Florence and Lucca, choose a place where what matters most is the time you share, the little details, and the quiet beauty of just being together.
