Tuscany, Italy
- 4 persons
- 1 bedroom
- WiFi
- Swimming pool

A nature house located on the ground floor of the main house, converted from a recently renovated old barn. It features a double bedroom, a spacious living room that doubles as a kitchen-living area with a sofa bed, a fireplace, a large bathroom, a veranda with a pergola overlooking the garden, and an infinity pool. The Nature House, nestled in the woods of the Metalliferous Hills, boasts a marvelous panorama that stretches from the mountains across the hills that gently slope down to the sea. The apartment’s veranda and the pool, overlooking this natural spectacle, will treat you to views of fantastic sunsets that paint the varied landscape of our region, the Alta Maremma. At the back of the farmhouse stands the crown jewel of the property: a centuries-old turkey oak, a monumental tree under whose majestic canopy you can relax in the cool shade. Relaxation and privacy are guaranteed, as you will be the only guests at the property.
Nature and surroundings
The nature house is located within the Cornate and Fosini Nature Reserve, which offers an extensive network of trails for hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding, as well as the opportunity to observe and photograph protected animals and plants. Nearby is the small medieval village of Gerfalco, part of a UNESCO project and home to the Festival delle Viole, during which seminars and concerts featuring ancient instruments are held. By car, you can reach the medieval town of Massa Marittima and the coast in about half an hour; in about an hour, or two hours at most, you can reach the art cities of Siena, Florence, and Pisa, as well as many small villages, hot springs, Etruscan archaeological sites, and nature parks. In addition, you can enjoy local specialties and products at the many small restaurants and wineries in the area. E-bike, horseback riding, and car rental with a driver are available.

In a word, “amazing.” We’d love to come back here for the atmosphere, nature, and serenity—and the wonderful hosts.
In een woord 'geweldig'. Hier komen wij graag terug voor de sfeer, natuur en sereniteit én de fijne hosten.
We absolutely loved this cottage, the surroundings, and the views. The cottage itself is very neatly designed and finished; it has everything you need for a pleasant stay. The kitchen has a nice, authentic atmosphere but is basic in terms of amenities, and although there’s Wi-Fi, the connection is unstable and slow. Despite this, we’d love to stay here for weeks on end. The view of the surroundings from the terrace is magnificent. The hosts, Claudia and Fabio, are very friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Any issues are resolved immediately.
You’ll see beautiful butterflies, bees, and bumblebees, bats, birds of prey, and we even spotted small roe deer on the property. Finally, the pool is wonderful and absolutely beautiful, with a view of the valley. It’s a good size, uses salt instead of chlorine, and isn’t too salty. There’s a lovely shower next to the pool to rinse off. Seating areas, lounge chairs—everything you need is there.We hebben ongeloofelijk genoten van dit huisje en de omgeving en vergezichten. Het huisje zelf is zeer netjes vormgegeven en afgewerk, dit huisje heeft alles voor een fijn verblijf. De keuken heeft een fijne authentieke sfeer maar is wel basic qua voorzieningen, en hoewel er wifi is, is deze matig qua stabiliteit en niet snel. Desondanks zouden wij hier weken en weken willen verblijven. De omgeving te zien vanuit je terras is grandioos. De hosts Claudia en Fabio zijn zeer vriendelijk, gastvrij en behulpzaam. Eventuele problemen worden direct gefixt.
Je ziet hier mooie vlinders, bijen en hommels, vleermuizen, roofvogels en wij hebben zelfs kleine reeën gezien op het perceel. Tot slot, het zwembad heerlijk en super mooi, mét uitzicht over de valei. Goed voormaat, geen chloor maar zout, en niet té zout. Heerlijke douche naast het zwembad om af te spoelen. Zitjes, ligbedden, alles is er.This text is automatically translated. -

I'm finding it a little hard to rate this—the house, the property, and the surroundings were all truly beautiful; the kitchen is equipped with the essentials, which was enough for us.
We planned this vacation as a family with our 10-year-old daughter and our two dogs, and we’d been looking forward to wonderful days by the pool for months—and even went shopping for them....When we arrived, we were presented with a list full of pool rules stating that we weren’t allowed to use any of these things—not even diving, as it’s a relaxation pool. And even though our dogs don’t go in the water, they weren’t allowed in the pool area—which is actually quite large, and the dogs can’t get near the water anyway.... We understand this, of course, but we think it should have been mentioned in the description. So one of us watched the dogs while the other swam with our child... that’s not quite how we imagined our family time....
As a couple, yes; as a family, no.Die Bewertung fällt mir etwas schwer, das Haus, das Grundstück die Umgebung, war alles wirklich wunderschön, die Küche ist mit dem nötigsten ausgestattet, hat für uns gereicht.
Wir haben den Urlaub als Familie mit unserer 10 Jahre alten Tochter und unseren 2 Hunden geplant und haben uns Monate auf wunderbare Pooltage gefreut und haben dafür eingekauft....Als wir ankamen wurde uns eine Liste voller Poolregeln vorgelegt worin stand,das wir dies alles nicht benutzen dürfen, eigentlich auch nicht Tauchen, es handelt sich um einen Entspannungspool, und auch obwohl unsere Hunde nicht Wasser gehen, durften sie nicht mit an die Pool Area, welche eigentlich wirklich groß ist und die Hunde nicht in die Nähe des Wassers kommen....wir haben da natürlich Verständnis für, finden aber das dies in der Beschreibung stehen sollte. So hat einer auf die Hunde aufgepasst und einer konnte mit unserem Kind schwimmen...so haben wir unsere Familienzeit nicht ganz vorgestellt....
Als Paar ja, als Familie nein.The location is quiet, right in the middle of the forest; the drive there is a bit of an adventure—it’s actually best to tackle it in a Jeep or SUV.
We received a warm welcome.
The property is truly large and beautiful; there are several shady spots, and the small terrace right outside our door invites you to linger. We had breakfast there every morning, surrounded by the wonderful scent of lavender, and enjoyed the view.
Gerfalco is a charming little village with two restaurants where we were made to feel truly welcome.
However, the cities of Pisa and Florence are just under two hours away, not one hour as described.Die Lage befindet sich ruhig, mitten im Wald, der Weg dorthin ist etwas Abenteuerlich, eigentlich am besten mit einem Jeep oder SUV zu bewältigen.
Wir wurden freundlich empfangen.
Das Grundstück ist wirklich groß und wunderschön, es gibt einige Schattige Plätze und auch die kleine Terrasse vor der eigenen Tür lädt zum verweilen ein, wir haben dort jeden Morgen unser Frühstück, neben dem Wunderbaren Lavendelduft, eingenommen und die Aussicht genossen.
Gerfalco ist ein zauberhaftes Dörfchen mit 2 Restaurants in welchen wir wirklich willkommen waren.
Die Städte Pisa und Florenz sind allerdings knapp 2 Stunden entfernt, nicht 1 wie beschrieben.This text is automatically translated. -

Absolutely great location. Fine owners. Simple but complete kitchen and especially the combo with the pool, after one of the many beautiful walks nearby is top. Location, location, location... in the middle of a protected nature reserve!
Absoluut een geweldige locatie. Fijne eigenaren. Simpele maar complete keuken en vooral de combi met het zwembad, na een van de vele prachtige wandelingen in de buurt is top. Locatie, locatie, locatie... midden in een beschermd natuurgebied!
