Hints and tips from the owner:
" The villa is located in the ancient heart of Tuscany: Maremma. In the territory of Capalbio, where lost bucolic atmospheres, ancient traditions, elsewhere disappeared, still survive. Sites of interest in the nearby neighbourhood: the medieval village of Capalbio, the Garden of Tarots (a Park/Museum of the French sculptress Niki de Saint Phalle), the Castle and the Etrurian museum of Vulci, the etrurian museum of Tarquinia and the etrurian painted tombs, Saturnia Thermal Baths, the Monte Argentario sea-coast and the Tuscany islands (Giglio and Giannutri are the nearest), wine itineraries (Le strade del vino – to know the best production sites and learn more about tasting wines-). Among the many restaurants within the area we suggest: Il Frantoio, Tullio e Maria at Capalbio, Il Tortello at Pescia Fiorentina, for traditional Tuscany’s flavours; La Filanda at Manciano to taste an experimental Tuscan nouvelle cuisine, I nobili Santi at Porto Ercole for excellence in sea food.

"Beautiful place, really, the pictures don''t give it justice. Completely immersed in nature, very and quiet, with a charming view. The house was also beautiful, decorated with taste and mostly antique pieces. The housekeeper and property guardian were very nice and helpful and went the extra length to help us with the unforeseen, like finding a doctor in the middle of the night for our youngest daughter. We''re coming back in summer!"
"It was , probably, my best vacations (in rented houses). Everything was perfect: the interiors and a,enities, the style of living, friendly stuff, kind animals in the territory, garden was fantsticly organised and cared. Me and my family experienced the famous italian "dolce vita" (dolce farniente). I would recommend this property to anybody who is thinking of the genuine italian vacations."
The villa is very nice and also the property in which is situated, and the garden too. Some details are sub standard at this high price, the hot water supply is limited (forget about hot jacuzzi). There are lots of cats and dogs around. Avoid if you are allergic or afraid of those animals. In all, a very nice (and overpriced) place especially if you want to be quietly at home. The only interesting place around is Capalbio, a small but fascinating old village
"Superbe maison, nettoyage quotidien parfait, nous avons passé un séjour magnifique en famille. Seul petit problème quelque soucis d'approvisionnement en eau vite réglé par madame A. la femme de ménage, qui était toujours là pour rendre service et d’une gentillesse remarquable. Magnifique pour ceux qui aiment la tranquillité Présence de chien non renseignée, mais ils sont très discret." "
"La villa è veramente bellissima, tutto perfetto: l’arredamento, le attrezzature, lo spazio. E che dire del posto! Un piccolo paradiso, boschi e campi coltivati tutto intorno, un angolo di Toscana che sembra una cartolina. Anche la zona è molto bella e abbiamo fatto delle piacevoli gite all’Argentario, a Saturnia e a Tarquinia. Costantino e Michela sono gentilissimi ed hanno fatto di tutto per rendere ancora più piacevole la nostra vacanza. Purtroppo siamo venuti d’inverno e non abbiamo potuto usufruire della piscina (faceva troppo freddo), ma speriamo di poter tornare in estate. Grazie di tutto"
