Le Peschiere in Maremma, a large and historic farmhouse at the top of its own hill, close to the Thermal baths of Saturnia, is an exceptional place for meetings and events. It is located at the end of a long private road and is surrounded by woodland. Its large garden includes an amphitheatre and shady areas for the summer.
It lies 1kilometre down from the town of Manciano towards the Tyrrhenian Sea and the Argentario promontory. Though in Tuscany, it is closer to Rome and its airport than to Florence.
The house probably began life around the 13th Century as a small monastery. A second part of the house dates from the 19th Century and the large barn now used as the studio was added about 100 years ago. All of the ground floor was given over to cattle and the family lived upstairs. It now has four bedrooms, three bathrooms, the large studio/meeting space and a parlour with baby grand piano. There are two kitchens (one inside, one outside).
It is suitable for family holidays, though it does not have a pool. It is also a good location seminars, concerts, courses, creative activities and social events, weddings included.
