On a 1.5 ha plot surrounded by 300 olive trees is this completely restored picturesque, beautiful natural stone house from the 19th century. A large garden with palm trees and secular trees and a 10x5 m pool guarantee a relaxing vacation. The main house is divided into 3 apartments, all with separate entrance, private garden area and cozy outdoor seating. Not far from it are 2 charming, single houses equipped with all comforts.

The space
Podere La Fornace is beautifully secluded and reveals a wonderful panorama of the rolling hills with olive groves, umbrella pines and cypresses, which characterize the typical Tuscan landscape around the property... take walks and jogs directly from the house or relax by our pool or on the various beautiful beaches of Castiglione della Pescaia, Follonica and Punta Ala.
All apartments have separate entrances and direct access from the living room to the romantic garden, a private outdoor seating area, garden furniture and sun loungers with comfortable cushions, mosquito nets + fans, and lots of information about the most beautiful beaches, the best restaurants and wineries, the most beautiful places and much more... upon arrival, a small culinary present awaits you in each apartment... other positive things
Satellite TV, Wi-Fi, washing machine, organic olive oil and wine (own production), mineral water service, bread service

Guest access
Of course, there is no shortage of the 10 x 5 m oval pool, surrounded by a Mediterranean palm garden. For each apartment, a sunshade and 2 loungers are available in the pool area. The pool area is totally fenced and lockable, which is a relief for the parents of small non-swimmers.
A large sand playground with climbing and swing equipment is available, as well as a huge playground. Ideal conditions to spend a wonderful, relaxing family vacation with children. The same applies to the four-legged family members.

Other things to note
Tuscany is known for its excellent cuisine. Traditional recipes are the basis for delicious game dishes or fine fish specialties. The naturally pure, cold-pressed olive oil is indispensable for the preparation of all dishes and gives each dish an incomparable touch. My husband Emiliano is a farmer and cares for our 650 olive trees from which we produce an excellent, organic, natural extra virgin olive oil.
Of course, you have the opportunity to taste our olive oil.
If you still want to dine like 'God in Italy' and taste our excellent wine from the wine-growing region of "Montereggio di Massa Marittima," you will find some outstanding restaurants and trattorias in the vicinity, such as the "Gotti e Morsi" and the "Passo Carraio," both in Ravi, just 2 km away from us.

Neighbourhood highlights

A visit to the medieval town of Massa Marittima with one of the most beautiful cathedral squares in Italy is definitely worthwhile.
Spend a long evening in the cozy fishing village of Castiglione della Pescaia with its many restaurants, street cafes and its lively life on the street after sunset.
Tuscany is also famous for its many thermal baths. Even the Etruscans and the Romans appreciated the soothing properties of the hot springs. Therefore, this area is also so good for a vacation outside the summer season. Here you can combine culture, wellness and culinary delights into an unforgettable experience.
Our Podere is equipped with central heating, as well as an open fireplace in the two large apartments primo and secondo. Therefore, our house is also suitable for stays in the cooler season, e.g. for golfers, cultural stays, mountain bikers and for people who want to spend part of the winter in the south.
Spend a nice, quiet day at Lago dell'accesa, a swimming lake with beautiful, clear and soft water. It can be reached from our house in 15 minutes by car. A wonderful pleasure.
An absolute must is a visit to the Parco dei Tarocchi, the beautiful sculpture garden of the artist Nikki de Saint Phalle in the south of Tuscany, near Capalbio.
The next major shopping opportunity is in the village of Bagno di Gavorrano approx. 8 kilometers from us. The place has a very well-equipped supermarket (Coop), a pharmacy, gas station, hairdresser, various small shops and restaurants. For shopping fans, the weekly markets in Follonica are a must.
The beautiful sandy beaches of Puntone, Cala Violina and the several kilometers long city beach "Lido" of Follonica are about 18 km away and Punta Ala is about 30 km away.
