Holiday Homes in Tuscany and Umbria

Saturday April 8, 2006
You can enjoy an idyllic holiday in Italy while supporting a good cause. Respite Italia, offers holiday homes that you can rent in Tuscany and neighboring Umbria, near Cortona, the city made famous in Francis Mayes' popular book, Under the Tuscan Sun (compare prices). Spending a week in a house rental in Tuscany or Umbria is part of my recommendation for a great two week vacation in Italy.

Each of these homes promises to give two free weeks per year to patients with breast cancer who can also receive free services from a British general practicioner, a holistic health therapist, and massage therapist.
