Maremma in Tuscany: The landscape of the Maremma extends along the coast of Follonica in southern Tuscany to Tarquinia in northern Lazio. The coast offers both rocky sections (Punta Ala, Talamone, Monte Argentario) and beautiful, sandy beaches (Castiglione, Principina, Albinia) with the typical pine forest belt. The back country, with its wide rolling hills, the corn fields, the handsome chestnut groves and vineyards is sparsely populated. The Maremma is one of the archaeological and art-historically significant regions of central Italy. Worth mentioning is the unique Maremma National Park, with recommended guided excursions, and the nature reserve around the lagoon of Orbetello. The special fascination of this unique region of Italy, for centuries the land of longing northern Europeans, lies in its abundance and in the contrast to its scenic and cultural attractions. Inland

This was our second visit to this wonderful house. The view is just amazing and constantly changing as weather systems go by, you can feel your breathing slowing down as you look out over the plain. The house is a real home that makes it so comfy to visit. The kitchen is very well stocked and the fruit and wine that were left as a welcome present was just lovely (I have never eaten such good peaches!). The beds are comfy and there is a huge amount of furniture to store the unpacking, nice not to live out of your suitcase as I have had to do at other rental properties. The local village is about a 2 km walk, which is a good distance for walking off several very pleasant lunches, albeit it is a bit of a climb back up to the house. Thank you Laura and family for letting us stay!
We were only 2 people, myself and my husband and so the house was bigger than we needed, but I fell for the view in the pictures and the reality did not disappoint. I spent many happy hours admiring the changing view while my husband was out on his bike. And he loved the roads around the house and came back from bike rides quite euphoric! Yes, the road up to the house is steep and is not perfect all the way up, but we have stayed in houses where it was much much worse and so the road up to Villa Guarda Mare felt easy (we had hired an Audi A1 which was perfect). The situation of the house was also great, within walking distance of Roccatederighi (even for me as I wait for hip replacement surgery) and we found everything we needed there. Inside the house itself was very very comfortable and felt like a real home. Comfy beds (never get that in Spain, there they are as hard a rocks!). We booked the cooking class (ricotta and spinach ravioli and it was a lot of fun, but we had a mountain of raviolis at the end - I was quite surprised that we managed to eat them all over the next days, but they were very very good :-) We also tried the recommended restaurant (da Nada) for a meal one night and it was truly lovely with great service. We had a table by the window and could see over to Villa Guarda Mare as we ate which was lovely. We came home thoroughly relaxed and this is the first time that I can write that we will go back, it was just wonderful. Thank you so much to all the folk involved in hiring out Villa Guarda Mare!!

Dear Janet, it was really a great pleasure, having you at Guarda Mare, We stay now there for longer and enjoy your wonderful words. May be you will be one of two hands of families from all over Europe, which stay at Guarda Mare every year.
It would be a great honor for us to meet you there again. Thank you so very much!
Amazing view from the terrace and pool, and a wonderful host
Our family had a very nice and relaxing stay at the Villa in July of 2022. We were a family of 5+1 daughter in-law - of ages 14-52. The best thing about the villa is no doubt the amazing view of the Maremma plain and the old part of Roccatederighi from the terrace and pool. Next comes the secludedness, but still close to the tiny and very old town of Roccatederighi. The town has everything you need - although very small stores and restaurants. Very rural. Beware that the house has no air condition. Hence strict observation of open/close windows, doors and shutters should be observed. We found the "filled fridge" option nice, but overpriced. Would recommend planning a shopping trip to Grossetto on the day of arrival instead. Also, the "cooking class" was problematic. The food was delicious but the two women had prepared the pasta dough and filling in advance, so only the preparation of the tortellini and boiling was anything resembling af "class". We had expected to make the dough ourselves and felt "left over" in the process. Also the women spoke ONLY Italian - no english. So communication was near impossible. The experience would better qualify as in-house cooking and was, unfortunately a disappointment to us. The host was extremely helpfull and responsive both before and during our stay. A very nice plus. We can definitely recommend a stay at Villa Guarda Mare.
Ein perfekter Urlaub in traumhafter Lage. Toskana pur. Das Haus lässt keine Wünsche offen. Ideal, wenn man sich selbst genug ist und keinen Trubel braucht. Sehr herzlicher Kontakt zur Vermieterfamilie. Wir kommen sehr gern wieder.
Wundervoller Urlaub mit traumhafter Aussicht und totaler Ruhe. Super Lage auch für Ausflüge ans Meer, zu Weingütern und schönen Orten in der Umgebung. Auch die Restaurants im Ort sind top, insbesondere das Da Nada.
Perfekt, mehr lässt sich nicht sagen! Das Objekt selbst, die Lage, die Umgebung und vor allem auch die direkte Kommunikation mit den Vermietern waren für unsere Ansprüche einfach perfekt! Also in der Summe ein echtes "Schmankerl" - Vielen Dank!

Vielen Dank, dass Ihr Euch die Mühe macht Euren Aufenthalt zu bewerten. Wir freuen uns, wenn Ihr wieder kommt!
Hier haben wir wirklich einen tollen Urlaub verbracht. Das Haus ist traumhaft schön und liebevoll eingerichtet. Die Küche super ausgestattet und der Ausblick von der Terrasse über das Tal bis zum Meer einfach atemberaubend.
Magnifique villa avec une vue extraordinaire à la hauteur des photos. La maison est très bien équipée. La propriétaire est très réactive. Le petit village n est pas loin et permet de faire quelques courses. Le seul bémol est l absence de climatisation. Bien que nous comprenions que ce soit pour préserver la planète. En août les nuits sont très chaudes et peu d air malgré que nous dormions toutes fenêtres ouvertes. En tout cas excellent séjour et difficile de quitter un lieu si magique.
Das Ferienhaus liegt super und unseren Vorstellungen gemäss abgelegen mit einem traumhaften Blick auf die Ebene und das dahinterliegende Meer Richtung Süden. Kinder und Eltern haben die Tage in vollen Zügen genossen. Vielen Dank.

Ein wundervolles Haus
Die letzten 250 Meter zum Haus sind beschwerlich. Steil, Schlaglöcher, eng. Das ist alles, was man an Negativem sagen kann. Ansonsten ist es ein traumhaftes Haus. Wir haben die Aussicht so genossen! Das Haus selbst ist sehr komfortabel eingerichtet, Geschirr, Besteck, Kochutensilien, alles ist in großer Zahl und hoher Qualität vorhanden. Die Betten sind sehr bequem, es ist alles gemütlich. Bei Fragen hat mir Laura immer innerhalb ganz kurzer Zeit per Mail geantwortet, alles war zu unserer Zufriedenheit. Der Pool war um diese Zeit schon kalt, wir sind trotzdem mal rein gegangen, einfach um ihn und die Aussicht zu genießen. Wer weg möchte vom Trubel ist hier richtig. Das Dorf ist über den kurzen Weg der Landstraße gut zu erreichen, der Supermarkt ist klein, aber man bekommt dort fast alles. Wir werden bestimmt wiederkommen!

Lieben Dank für die Bewertung. Wir waren auch sehr traurig, dass die seit März regenlose Zeit in der Woche vor Ihrem Aufenthalt mit einem Unwetter endete, dass die Zufahrtsstrasse beschwerlich machte. Natürlich ist das nicht der Normalzustand und die Schäden sind weitgehend beseitigt. Beim nächsten Mal wird es dann noch einfacher unser Haus zu erreichen.

Einfach wunderbar
Wir fühlten uns von der ersten bis zur letzten Minute unserer Ferien rundum wohl in diesem Haus. Obwohl erst spät abends angekommen wurden wir äußerst freundlich begrüßt und zum Domizil geführt. Das Haus war einladend für uns hergerichtet, das Interieur äußerst geschmackvoll und liebevoll eingerichtet. Die Lage des Hauses mit dem atemberaubenden Blick auf das Tal bis zum Meer ist einfach gigantisch. Da die Abende in den ersten Tagen noch etwas kühl waren, haben wir die Möglichkeit, die Räume zu heizen, dankend angenommen. Die Küche ist anders als sonst oft in italienischen Häusern üblich, groß und hervorragend ausgestattet. Die große Terasse, der Pool mit Ausblick, die Ruhe in der Umgebung ohne dabei einsam zu sein, einfach ein Traum. Der Wäschetausch, die Poolreinigung, alles erfolgte ganz unaufdringlich und unkompliziert durch die freundlichen Damen vor Ort. Das Haus entspricht in allen Belangen den gezeigten Bildern und kann absolut für einen Urlaub in ruhigem, abgeschiedenen Ambiente und traumhafter Landschaft empfohlen werden. Wir würden jederzeit gerne wiederkommen.

Haus an wunderbar ruhiger Lage mit Aussicht
Die Beschreibung auf den entsprechenden Webseiten stimmt vollständig mit der Realität überein.
Es handelt sich um ein wunderbar etwas in der Höhe gelegenes Haus mit einer riesigen Terrasse und prächtigem Ausblick auf die Maremma. Da das Haus für sich in einem kleinen Park steht, ist es absolut ruhig.
Die Ausstattung von Haus und Terrassenbereich ist komfortabel und lässt keine Wünsche offen. Der Kontakt mit der Vermieterin klappte hervorragend.
Sehenswürdigkeiten in der zentralen Toskana (Siena und Umgebung) sind per Auto in ca. 1-1,5 Stunden zu erreichen. Das kleine Dorf Roccatederighi ist ca. 1 km entfernt und bietet alle Einkaufsmöglichkeiten, allerdings nicht den Charme einer Stadt wie Massa Marittima, das ca. 30 Minuten entfernt liegt.
Uneingeschränkt empfehlenswert!

Magnifique !
Nous avons passé une super semaine dans cette belle maison. Les prestations sont de qualité. La vue est époustouflante. Le village à proximité est très sympa, on peut y trouver tout ce dont nous avons besoin et nous avons très bien mangé dans ses restaurants. La propriétaire nous avait organisé une soirée "fabrication de pâtes" avec des locaux : inoubliable ! A refaire !

Tolle Villa mit super Aussicht
Wir sind mit 2 Familien angereist. Die Anfahrt war etwas beschwerlich, aber die Mega Aussicht und der tolle Pool haben einen dafür sofort entschädigt.
Das Haus ist einem guten Zustand und sehr gut ausgestattet.
Wir haben uns die ganze Zeit sehr wohl gefühlt und den Aufenthalt genossen.

Schön, dass unsere Villa wieder so gut gefalllen hat. Villen in der Toskana sind meist etwas einsamer gelegen. Wenn man einen privaten Pool und ein grosses privates Grundstück haben möchte, muss man dies einfach meistens in Kauf nehmen. Villa Guarda Mare ist nut 300 m auf einem geteerten Weg von der ins Dorf führenden Strasse entfernt. Es sind nur 800m zu einem mittelalterlichen Dorf (Roccatederighi) mit perfekter Infrastruktur. Eine absolute Ausnahmelage und das mit Panoramasicht auf Meer und Dorf.

About the host
Hosted by Laura Noeh
My parents had bought the house more than 20 years ago. So I had the opportunity to spend my entire childhood there during my holidays. I have enjoyed them. During the day we always went to the sea, since there was no pool. Sometimes we then went to Siena, Florence or Rome, or had to assist our parents in haunted places, with streets through which no cars could past, with wine, pasta, cheese or olive oil samples. Well, true, the good ice cream has always compensated us. After very extensive renovations a few years ago, I now help with the renting of GUARDA MARE.
Why they chose this property
GUARDA MARE with its location so close to Roccatederighi is the ideal base, from which to visit Tuscany, and to explore or to spend days at the beach. People are very open and friendly, and the food is very good. The sea is exceptionally beautiful. Then you can end the day in the pool with this view, and finally cook in this wonderful home, or to go to Vincenzo for food, it is unforgettable.
What makes this property unique
There is plenty of space around the house to go exploring or watch the many lizards. The comforts of this home with its very extensive facilities on a ,for this region, rather exceptional level can really make for a great holiday here.
