Home description
Giannella lies on a beach of the peninsula Argentario where a small colony of holiday houses has developed over the past 30 years. It is a pretty house painted in a dark mediterranean pink and stands in a large enclosed garden which is accessed through a wrought iron gate. A large part of the garden consists of a so called ‚pineta' - loosely set high-grown pine trees which give you all the shade you need.
Giannella has been divided into 2 apartments. Pineti ( sleeps 4) - on the ground floor has its entrance at the back of the house, the other - Marinella ( sleeps 8 ) - is reached by steps leading up to a balcony at the front of the house. A gate leads from the garden directly to the sand beach.
Apart from the main holiday months of July and August the beach is never too crowded.

The Tuscany region
Maremma, a lesser known and therefore all the more captivating part of Tuscany extending south towards Latium. Once unhealthy because of the many marshes, Maremma was drained and re-populated with people coming from other Italian regions, notably from Veneto.
Today the area is provided with significant natural and environmental resources, where ancient traditions have survived and Tuscan culture is preserved. The Natural Park of the Maremma, traditionally populated by the butteri, cattle-breeders who used horses until recently, with a distinctive style of saddle.
The territory of Maremma is rich in nuances - long stretches of fully equipped beaches of fine sand accompanied by lush pine forests, tiny coves with sweet sounding names and crystal-clear water, deserted beaches against natural havens, uncontaminated islands in an enchanted sea, villages and castles that are austere and festive at the same time, gentle landscapes brimming with history and natural wonders.
