Surroundings
The surrounding area is dotted with numerous small villages where you can savor traditional Maremma cuisine or fresh seafood specialties. A highlight is the ‘Strada del Vino di Monteregio‘ (Monteregio Wine Route), a journey through charming hamlets, wineries, wine shops, local delicacies, and high-quality artisan workshops.
For trekking and mountain biking enthusiasts, the ‘Le Bandite di Scarlino’ Nature Reserve offers a variety of trails—a lush stretch of Mediterranean scrub overlooking the sea with breathtaking views.
Nestled in the heart of the Etruscan region, our location allows for easy excursions to the necropolises of Populonia, Vetulonia, and Roselle, as well as the medieval towns of Massa Marittima, Volterra, and San Gimignano. The iconic cities of Siena, Pisa, and Florence are also within easy reach for day trips. Additionally, our property serves as a convenient starting point for excursions to the islands of Elba, Giglio, and Giannutri, and the Maremma Natural Park.
In the locality of Puntone, you will find the “Marina di Scarlino” Marina, the largest and best-equipped tourist port in Tuscany, further enhanced by a modern and welcoming shopping gallery.
This state-of-the-art marina stands on land steeped in history: since ancient times, ‘Portus Scabris’ served as a major commercial hub for both Etruscans and Romans. Today, this legacy lives on at MAPS (The Portus Scabris Archaeological Museum), housed in an expertly restored historic hydraulic station located right by the port. Inside, fascinating ancient artifacts document the area’s thousand-year-old maritime tradition.
