Family villas on the Maremma and Argentario coast

Families return to this coast year after year for simple reasons. The beaches are long and sandy, the water shelves gently in many places, and the umbrella pines behind the dunes give natural shade at midday. Inland there are horses, farm shops and the wide open country of the Maremma, where cattle are still herded by mounted cowboys.

The villas below have room to spread out. A 19th century hilltop farmhouse near Bolgheri sits on 35 hectares with a clay tennis court. A villa in Castiglioncello stands in a walled garden of nearly 40 palm trees, 300 m from the main square, so older children can walk into town. A 16th century country house above Donoratico has a tower bedroom and a private beach hut by the sea.
