Climate and weather in Montaione
Discover Montaione
During the summer period, in particular between the end of June and the start of September, the temperature can reach levels of over 40°C with a high moisture content, and even during the night temperatures rarely drop below 30/33°C.
By the way, thanks to the altitude of 373 meters above the sea level, Montaione has a mild temperature thank to an afternoon breeze from west-North/West.
We would remind guests to bring high factor protection sun-creams since during daytime hours, and especially in the swimming pool area, the strong sunlight can cause burns and allergies.
The best months for an holiday in Tuscany are undoubtedly May and June, since the long days and the fairly moderate temperatures (generally between 25 and 30 degrees) enable pleasant walks in the open air, and also make it possible to avoid long queues at the most important art museums.
We also recommend the period between the second half of September and the end of October, since as well as the mild climate (usually in October the temperatures do not fall below 20/25 degrees and it is sometimes even hot enough to use swimming pool which is always open), this is a very busy and fascinating time of year in the countryside.
The grape harvest takes place in September, and that of the olives at the end of October, and guests which stays in farmhouses can actively participate in these in the vineyards and olive groves on the estate. Added to which, visitors at this time of year have the bonus of savouring the new oil and the 'novello' wine.
Finally, we shouldn't overlook the delightful period between the end of November and the end of December. The magic of Christmas effectively makes Tuscany even more unique. Numerous events are held in this period, as well as colourful and evocative craft markets connected with the Christmas tradition, and the shops remain open even on Sundays.
Precautions - During the summer season, because of the high daytime temperatures and the fact that we are in the countryside, there is the risk of being bitten by insects such as mosquitoes and/or being disturbed by flies.
However, for guests who are allergic to insect bites, and above all in the case of children with delicate skin, we recommend using an anti-allergic cream.
