Large, comfortable villa in beautiful Tuscany

Our family of five made Villa Pietraserena our home for the last two weeks in August 2018. This is a charming traditional Italian home with more than enough space to easily accommodate our family and more thanks to its generous size. The air-conditioning in each room was a welcome relief from the heat and humidity. We spent many days lounging around and swimming in the large pool. Most evenings we dined al fresco in the stunning garden, making good use of the supplied wood fire barbecue. There is also a beautiful outdoor Pizza oven and gas barbecue. The property is well situated with a large Co-Op just down the road in Gavoranno town centre with a wonderful array of wines and local fresh produce. There is also a pharmacy and several really good restaurants in easy walking distance. The locals were all friendly and welcoming and Tatiana (the caretaker) made us feel extremely welcome and made herself available to answer any questions we had throughout our stay. The Villa is perfectly situated for travel to major cities such as Pisa, Florence and Sienna - and more locally, the stunning hilltop towns of Massa Marittima and Scarlino, amongst others – all within a 20 / 30 minute drive, making a perfect base for day trips. You are never far from beaches such as Follonica which has lovely sidewalk cafes, cocktail bars and a variety of shops. Castiglione della Pescaia with its beautiful white sand and amazing sunsets & sunrises sporting views of Elba and Giglio islands, making this our favourite beach by far! If you are into your wines, there is a plethora of vineyards available for wine tasting which makes for a stunning day out. Being so close to major centres made a day trip to Elba possible which was possibly the highlight of our trip and is highly recommended. This villa makes for a wonderful family holiday or for people travelling with friends and we cannot recommend it highly enough.

Beautiful Home

Villa Pietraserena is a beautiful home and provided us with a fantastic base to explore the surrounding area. After busy days it was wonderful to come back to such a tranquil place to recover.

Lovely spacious house and grounds and the pool was fantastic

We shared this property with friends for two weeks and had a fantastic time. The house and grounds and plenty big enough so we all could have our own space and all be all together. The Pizza oven is great and the pool was very well looked after and a great size so you could actually swim in it. Charles the owner was very warm and answered questions quickly and made sure we had everything to make it a comfortable stay. The Location is also very beautiful and the house is only 15 min drive to sandy beaches and 5 min drive to the local village where there are shops and plenty of restaurants. We would highly recommend this property And are thinking of returning next year.

Beautiful villa in large garden full of trees with amazing swimming pool. Strongly recommend!

We had really great stay in villa Pietraserena, enjoyed a lot. Its a lovely place, the swimming pool is just huge and the whole garden extremely large. Villa itself is very comfortable, clean, you will find in everything you need for pleasant holidays. The host Tatiana is very nice person and helped us with everything we needed. We were two families with two kids and we all had enough comfort. We enjoyed specially grilling evenings with excelent Tuscany wine.. Gavorrano is small and calm village which gave us everything needed, supermarket is 2 mins by car, there are also some restaurants or pizzerias 10 mins by walk. Also we visited so many beautiul places in Tuscany, Sienna, Volterra, San Gimignano, Montalcino - most of places from 1 to 1 and half hour drive. Nearest beaches are 15 mins by car, we loved most Marrema beaches in natural park. But one week was just not long enough, we would love to stay longer:-)

About the host

Hosted by Charles Fryer

My wife and I rescued this farm building and completely rebuilt it, making use of local stone and marble, transforming it into a comfortable and elegant home, suitable for all seasons.

Why they chose this property

The extensive grounds of one hectare provide peace for the house, and relaxation for guests, with a swimming pool, plenty of space, in a garden that is enclosed by a fence on three sides and a ditch and levee on the fourth side, along a stream. Long walks or bicycle rides are possible along the top of the levee. The village of Bagno di Gavorrano, just 1 km away, has most facilities that could be needed -- several restaurants, supermarket, bars and shops, weekly open market, banks, two bakeries, etc. The seaside is an easy drive 15 minutes away.
