Casina di Rosa is a wonderful opportunity for the independent traveller seeking privacy and a pleasant atmosphere. The house is a perfect base for sightseeing trips or to relax and experience daily life in a traditional Tuscan village.
The house consists of kitchen, bedroom with double bed and lounge area and bathroom and is furnished with original pieces and new items in traditional Tuscan style. The kitchen has all major appliances (including washing machine) and a working fireplace.
The house is located in Civitella Marittima, a small village that lies in the hills between the beaches of the Maremma and Siena. Both approximately 20 miles from the village. This is a fantastic location to explore southern Tuscany and all the major sites without having to choose among the most popular areas of Tuscany. Our location is the main strength of our cosy holiday home.
For the many positive reviews received, Casina di Rosa has been chosen as one of the Slow Travel Favourite vacation rentals in Tuscany. Moreover, thanks to the many activities that we run (wine tasting tours, olive oil tours, cooking classes, lavender tours, visit to cheese, honey and cured meats producers, Italian language courses) our home has been featured in several magazines such as Le Vie del Gusto and Dream of Italy. We make a point of offering low cost activities to make them affordable for the largest possible number of people so that the culture of our beautiful area can be fully appreciated.
We are happy to help our guests with anything they might need at all stages of their trip: from the planning stage to the moment they leave.
Over the years Casina di Rosa has been chosen by many soon-to-be brides and grooms who come to Tuscany to plan their wedding. We are happy to assist those who wish to find out more about what is necessary to get married in Tuscany. We are also proud to be located in a very appreciated honeymoon destination, and we welcome all the romantic travellers who wish to choose Tuscany to celebrate their recent wedding, an anniversary or simply their love.
We welcome guests as if they were friends staying at our own home: over the year we have met many incredible people and we are proud to help them discover the local culture and way of life.
