About this property

La Ginestra in the heart of a golf course close to spectacular beaches

La Ginestra is one of only ten houses in our “Borgo Santa Chiara”. It benefits from an exceptional position in the hills of the Tuscan Maremma, only a few miles from the coast and situated in the heart of an 18-hole golf course with breathtaking views over the rolling Tuscan hills and Mediterranean forests down to the sea and the Isle of Elba. The local climate is especially mild, even by Italian standards, with outdoor activities possible 12 months of the year.

The property is fenced and a driveway leads to the houses which are set around a central courtyard planted with olive and cypress trees. Each house also has its own garden with a shaded seating area and two covered parking spaces. There are also communal gardens and a 20-meter swimming pool.

The kitchen and living rooms of La Ginestra are on the ground level with large windows and French doors opening onto the garden. The house has 3 bedrooms with 2 bathrooms upstairs and a separate cloakroom and office/service room on the ground floor.

The attention to detail in the construction and in the furnishing of our property will give our visitors a sense of well-being and comfort. The chic and stylish furnishing combine understated elegance with a retro feel. A lot of attention has been given to create a homogenous design, which is practical but which does not compromise on aestethics. Attention to detail regarding lighting, colours, artwork and the coordination of soft furnishings make this property unique.

The construction quality is extremely high, kitchen and bathroom fittings are of international luxury brand standard. Features include hand-made Tuscan floor tiles, under floor heating, Villeroy & Boch bathroom fittings. Broadband WIFI and satellite TV are installed.

Our property was built recently in 2013 and was not conceived as a low-cost vacation home but as place that will stand the test of time and which will eventually be passed on to generations to come.

The Maremma is a stunning area in Southern Tuscany combining the unspoiled beauty of Nature in terms of its gentle hills and forests and the contrast with the nearby beaches. The area offers visitors a variety of activities, but many will find that they are so entranced by their house and its surroundings that they are content to stay put: swimming, sunbathing, sipping a glass of wine and watching the sun go down.

Eine Oase in der Maremma, nicht weit vom Meer entfernt
Wir haben zwei wundervolle Wochen in der Ferienanlage Borgo Santa Chiara verbracht. Besonders beeindruckt haben uns die schöne Gartenanlage, der entspannende Weitblick in die toskanische Landschaft und der grosse Pool. Das Haus ist sehr komfortabel und wohnlich eingerichtet, den Besitzer und Vermieter haben wir als unkomplizierten und freundlichen Gentleman erlebt. Herzlichen Dank!

Ein gelungener Urlaub!
Es ist alles da, was man braucht. Lage, Umgebung, Eigentümer alles TOP. Einzig einen Kohlegrill haben wir vermisst, mit dem Elektrogrill kann man nicht wirklich ein bistecca alla fiorentina machen.

About the host

Hosted by Borgo Santa Chiara Srl

Host profile image
My family has owned property in this area for generations and our nearby Villa is our family home.
My English wife, Victoria, and our three sons enjoy the warm feeling of family roots that we have here and despite our sons living in London, they are always keen to return. My mother and sister live here full time while I divide my time between Rome and Tuscany during winter but in the summer live full-time at our property as I believe that it is very important to be on hand in order to welcome and support our guests.

The unique location, the tranquility and the warm welcome that our family gives, has meant that the families who rent our property are always delighted with their holiday experience with us.

Tuscany offers so much that you may do with some expert advice. From here you can tour the many attractions of our region but also enjoy the closeness of our beaches. Our preferred family beach, called “Giardino Beach”, is 15 km away, offers a wide, fine sand beach with a stunning sand dune covered by huge pine trees and in front at a few miles distance the Island of Elba. When you lie on your sun bed and open your eyes, you will be stunned by the intense color contrast of the blue sky, the huge green pine trees, the white sand and the clean blue water reaching out to the islands in front of us!

Here you can practice wind surf, kite surf, sailing or the pedalo, or just enjoy lazing on the beach taking advantage of its bars and restaurants. If you felt like chartering a boat, motor or sailing, you have many marvellous options.

But you can change beach every day, if you wish to, and still be delighted of what you will find. Just a few suggestions, all within a 30-minute drive: Cala Violina, Punta Ala, Le Rocchette, Castiglion della Pescaia, Parco dell’Uccellina, Baratti, San Vincenzo….

Why they chose this property

If you seek tranquility, peace and living in harmony with nature, you have found the right spot! We are surrounded by the typical Tuscan country side with its beauty and charm and on top of that you can go to play golf literally stepping out of our properties’ gate.

If you prefer to swim and sunbathe you have the choice of a 20-metre long pool or the many beautiful beaches that can be reached in a 15-30 minute drive. We are surrounded by the cleanest beaches in Italy, as certified by “Bandiera Blu” and other agencies.

When you have recharged your batteries, you may feel like visiting some of the marvelous historic cities of our region, admiring the stunning views that Tuscany offers. Close by we have Massa Marittima, a 20-minute drive, this ancient city will show you medieval and renaissance architecture at its best, with its cathedral and picturesque main square. And then obviously Pisa and Siena, Bolgheri, Volterra and San Gimignano, Montalcino and Montepulciano, just for naming a few of the classic world renown cities that surround us.

And then the food and wines! If you are a “foodie” or are just interested in sampling the region’s culinary delights, you won’t be disappointed as the area boasts an extraordinary range of produce and restaurants, ranging from the local pizzerias and trattoria to much more upmarket and sophisticated restaurants.

We will be happy to provide a list of our favourite restaurants in the area and information for visiting nearby wineries. If you would like to visit top-notch wine producer of “SuperTuscans”, many of whom offer not only some of the best wines in the world, but also extraordinary buildings designed by world-renowned architects like Renzo Piano (The Shard in London, The Pompidou Center in Paris etc.), Mario Botta and others, we will be delighted to advise you. If on the other hand you are more interested in wineries who offer exceptionally good bottles at very decent prices, we can help to select those worth visiting.

What makes this property unique

My family and I have deep roots in this place that we have owned for generations. This means that we will offer all our knowledge and support to our guests, in 5 fluently spoken languages, and will help you to make the best of your stay according to your taste and preferences.
