Vacation in Tuscany and tour Maremma

Situated between the Argentario Sea and the Saturnia Spa, the Country Villas Fattoria Le Guardiole is the starting point for natural and cultural excursions or for a breathtaking tour of Maremma. Our farmhouse is at one-hour drive to Rome.

The Country Villas Fattoria Le Guardiole enjoys a privileged position: our holiday villa in central Italy is immersed in greenery, but at the same time is close to the best places to visit in Tuscany. You can get to Pisa and its leaning tower in an hour and half or Piazza del Campo and Siena; another half-hour and you can visit Florence, the cultural city par excellence. In the North there are Massa Marittima, Vetulonia, Grosseto and the Roman settlements in Roselle. You can visit Talamone, where Garibaldi made a stop, and in the West Orbetello, with its lagoon, Capalbio that dominate Ansedonia sea, and Argentario with excursions to Giglio island. The inland regions there are Magliano, Montemerano, Saturnia, Pitigliano, Sovana and Sorano, ancient rural villages.

100 Km of beautiful beaches and the islands of the Arcipelago Toscano are perfect for people who enjoy nature and excursions. You can reach wonderful landscapes where the colours of the sea (from green aquamarine to blue) are in no way inferior to the exotic bathing establishments. The Maremma Natural Park, the lagoon of Orbetello, the Burano lake, the chestnuts trees of the Monte Amiata and every landscape you will visit in this low density populated place, allow you to experience the emotion to meet hawks, egrets, wild boars, venison, foxes, beech martens, badgers so wild, met by chance during a walk, a ride, driving a motor or the car. For an unforgettable Tuscan vacation in close contact with the still unspoilt nature.

Maremma means horses, with the Butteri; the long rides without touching asphalt, immersed in the scents of the lentisk and the myrtle… Our holiday cottage organizes horse riding tours through the countryside of Tuscany. Maremma means wild boar; the traditional team hunting, in order to save the harvests, to train dogs, to show courage and rule respect. And nowadays Maremma means Golf: the Country Villas Fattoria Le Guardiole is in the centre of 6 courses easily attainable.

In the Country Villas Fattoria Le Guardiole you can fish, too. In the little lake, carps and eels put the fishermen to the test. Other activities include bike and horse rides and carriages trips. Two swimming pools, one with Jacuzzi, table tennis, bird-watching and trekking allow you to relax in a wonderful landscape…

...and then dancing evenings, varnishing-days, and meetings with artists: so many opportunities to have fun and spend a fantastic farm holiday in Tuscany.
