Home description

This XIX renovated stone farmhouse offers two independent studio apartments for holiday rental. The property is nestled within the hills that surround Castellina Marittima, close to Livorno and Pisa and near to the most beautiful beaches of the “Etruscan” coast.

The farmhouse is set in extensive grounds covered with olives groves and vegetation typical of the “ macchia mediterranea”. It has magnificent views of the coastal plain, lake Santa Luce , the sea to the front and imposing forested mountains to the rear. On clear days it is possible to see the Tuscan archipelago islands, Corsica and the ships crossing the sea.

This is a perfect holiday for relaxation! Picture yourself sitting in the cool shade of the oak trees watching the horses graze in the field nearby and the antics of the black labrador.

The area is central to explore the better known parts of Tuscany: Florence , Volterra, San Gimignano, Pisa, Siena, Populonia.

The Tuscany region

The coast

Over 20% of the Costa degli Etruschi comprises parks, protected areas, nature oases, and fauna reserves.
Nature is not just a setting, but the very essence of this land with its dense stands of pine trees, woods and countryside rich with colours and scents.
A temperate climate throughout the year, with particularly mild springs, long summers and infrequent rainfall during autumn/winter, makes for enjoyable holidays all year round.

Historical sites & towns

The farmhouse is favorably positioned to visit some amongst the most beautiful towns in Tuscany: Pisa, Siena, Volterra, S. Gimignano, Lucca, Firenze and the traditional villages of Bolgheri, Castagneto Carducci, Casale Marittimo. Nestled within the “ Golfo di Baratti “ lays the necropoli etrusca of Populonia, today part of the interesting “Parco Archeologico e Naturalistico.”
