Home description
This is a rare opportunity to stay in an elegant apartment within the walls of a pristine Tuscan National Heritage monument. La Rocca Spagnola, 1557, was built during the Spanish occupation of Tuscany and sits magnificently over the picturesque Marina of Porto Ercole. La Rocca is the perfect place for a quiet and peaceful retreat.
The apartment, La Santa Barbara (the gun powder room) features a large vaulted room broken by a stunningly designed mezzanine, elegantly furnished with period pieces. Comfortable accommodation for four with one twin room and one super king (on mezzanine) as well as fully equipped kitchen and bathroom.
