TOWER VILLA

GROSSETO, TUSCANY

The villa used to be a Spanish watchtower against the invasions of the Saracen pirates.  As the centuries have passed and the tower has been restored, it has become a special place to spend your holidays. The Tuscan coast and the Park of Maremma and on clear days, usual in this part of Tuscany, the view stretches for kilometers. Behind the tower lies the Maremma, rich in woods and scattered with numerous villages of Etruscan origin, the traces of which still remain today.

The charm of this place is such that part of a James Bond movie was filmed here. The tower is part of a large estate that also includes another smaller building, with which you share only the access to the sea with steps carved into the rock and a sunbathing platform. At the foot of the Tower, facing the sea, there are two terraces: on one you will find the swimming pool,surrounded by a wooden deck, while the other terrace, which is nicely furnished with sofas and chairs, offers a splendid view that reaches its best at sunset. This accommodation invites idleness and to finish the day you can go to the picturesque village of Talamone, to enjoy the delicious Maremma cuisine or fish dishes.
