Casina di Rosa is a wonderful opportunity for the independent traveller seeking privacy and a pleasant atmosphere. Use the house as a base for sightseeing trips or relax and experience daily life in a traditional Tuscan village. The house consists of 4 rooms (kitchen, bedroom with double bed, living room and bathroom) and is furnished with original pieces and new items in traditional Tuscan style. The kitchen has all major appliances (including washing machine) and a working fireplace. The house is located in Civitella Marittima, a small village that lies in the hills between the Tuscan Maremma and the Colli Senesi. The village, home to 350 people, was originally settled during the time of the Etruscans, but experienced its major development in the medieval period. The area surrounding Civitella Marittima has been declared "Distretto Rurale Europeo": it remains one of the few areas in Europe in which nature still comprises the major economic resource. The uncontaminated environment makes this an ideal location for vacationers looking to immerse themselves in nature.

Town and location of object

show on map

For lovers of culture, a visit to the cities of art of the area such as Siena, Florence, Arezzo, Pisa and Lucca is highly recommended. It is possible to visit any of these cities as a day trip, leaving from Casina di Rosa in the morning and returning the same evening, although to fully explore all of the treasures of even one of those cities would require months! Rome is easily reached by car or by train from Grosseto. To experience the history of the region, we suggest a visit the the Etruscan-Roman ruins in the archaeological parks found in Roselle, Pitigliano, Sorano and Sovana. The Etruscan Necropoli are a treasure of immense value and are to be found only in this area. Also of interest are the numerous medieval castles and abbeys in the vicinity such as Abbey of San Lorenzo, San Galgano, Monte Antico, Casenovole, Poggio alle Mura, Pienza, San Gimignano, Volterra, etc. For nature lovers, the surrounding countryside offers numerous trails for walks, hikes and mountain biking. Nearby Monte Amiata features mountain trails and Monte Labro and the Argentario peninsula are home to two of Italy's largest national parks. Casina di Rosa is an ideal base for those wishing to partake of the excellent hunting in the area. Local game is plentiful and includes wild boar, hare and pheasant. It is also possible to arrange excursions on horseback with a nearby riding farm. The Tyrrhenian coast, which annually receives recognition for the quality of the water and its beaches, is only a short distance away. Soak up the sun on the beaches of Alberese, Castiglione della Pescaia, Punt'Ala, Argentario and the islands of Elba and Giglio. Natural hot springs are nearby and open to the public year round (Petriolo 13km, and Saturnia 20km). Tuscany has a long tradition of fine cuisine. Here in the Maremma you can sample traditional dishes prepared with fresh, quality ingredients. Hunting is very popular in the area and many restaurants offer menus based on local game such as wild boar, pheasant, hare and deer. For lovers of fine wine, we recommend a visit to the nearby vineyards of Montalcino, home to the famous Brunello wines, or to Montepulciano (Rosso di Montepulciano), Scansano for its Morellino, San Gimignano and Monteriggioni for the Chianti. Civitella Marittima is located in the Montecucco D.O.C. region. All local restaurants have an extensive wine list. We are always happy to recommend other fine places to eat during your stay with us. Also of interest are the many village festivals held in the months of June, July and August, where you can find a selection dishes prepared in the local tradition. In November, it's possible, upon request, to participate to the olive harvesting activities and to visit one of the many olive presses of the area which produce excellent olive oil.
