Comfort and peace, between sea and hills

There are just a few agriturismos located close to the sea and even fewer actually have a sea-view. So, when I discovered this luxury agriturismo, I was immediately excited. This agriturismo offers an exclusive mix of luxury and nature, Tuscan hills and the sea. Beautifully situated among ancient olive groves, on a hill overlooking the sea, this is truly a place for lovers of peace, luxury and the beach.  I had to wait for a while, and was offered a delicious espresso in the garden. From my armchair I had a beautiful view of the olive grove with the sea behind. I could see the boats passing by!

Restaurant and panoramic terrace

The agriturismo consists of 3 luxury suites, 2 apartments on the ground floor and 1 apartment in the old tower with a stunning sea-view. On the ground floor there is a communal panoramic veranda terrace with comfortable armchairs and sofas. From here you have glorious sea-views. I visited the agriturismo in October, but I could imagine enjoying the view for hours at a time on a warm summer evening with a glass of wine. There is a restaurant with bar on site, with a beautiful terrace. Here they also serve breakfast. In the garden is an outdoor hot shower, great for rinsing off when you come back from the beach.

The surroundings of the property offer, besides the beach, various possibilities for hiking and biking. Do walk or drive up the hill from the agriturismo one day, because on top you have a magnificent  view. In good weather you can even see the island of Elba, which is highly recommended for a day trip! The agriturismo has bikes to rent and you can easily cycle down to the beach. Here there are also some restaurants with terraces. The charming coastal towns of San Vincenzo, Castiglione della Pescaia and Follonica are easy to reach by car. And if you want to see the Leaning Tower with your own eyes, it is less than an hour and a half to Pisa by car.

Suites and apartments

The suites and apartments are attractively decorated with attention to detail and using natural materials. The apartments consist of a living room with sofa bed and kitchenette, a bedroom with double bed and a bathroom. The apartments on the ground floor have a private garden with deck chairs and a table with chairs and parasol. All the units have LCD TV, wifi, air conditioning, minibar and kettle.

In short

One of the most luxurious agriturismos in my selection, with a unique location within walking distance of the sea. For lovers of the sea, peace, comfort and delicious Italian food.
