A farmhouse holiday in Grosseto becomes for most people a lifelasting good memory. Maremma sightings are unique and covey a sort of magnetic and wild appeal. That's even more evident in the area of Cape Argentario, along the southern coast of Tuscany. In ancient times Cape Argentario was a little island in front of the Tuscan coast, but the debris transported by the rivers to the sea connected the island to the continent and created the famous laguna of Orbetello, a well renowned naturalistic oasis. Other main towns along the coast are Porto Santo Stefano and Porto Ercole.
Today it's quite common to spend a holiday or a weekend in a farmhouse in Grosseto. But few people know that this is possible thanks to the great drainage ordered by Leopoldo II, Duke of Tuscany, in the XVIII century. Maremma was at the time particularly humid, marshes occupied a large part of the region and this situation favoured the diffusion of malaria infections (malaria is actually an Italian word meaning "bad air"). Drainage transformed Grosseto and its region into the romantic and magnificent country that everybody can admire today, preserving in any case the wild and mysterious fascination of Maremma.
A farmhouse holiday in Grosseto is a satisfying experience from all the points of view, even from a cultural and artistic perspective. Grosseto and its region, the Tuscan Maremma, offer many opportunities to discover the great historic and artistic heritage of Tuscany: archeological sites with Etruscan and Roman findings are scattered all along the area and many towns, even the tiniest ones, display astounding examples of medieval and Renaissance architecture. That's why a farmhouse near Grosseto is an ideal base point for yor vacation tiime in Tuscany: any trip, any hiking excursion can trasform spontaneously in an unexpected artistic and historical discovery, at any turn of the road.
When you take a reservation in a Grosseto farmhouse, you're gaining the opportunity to experience fully all the attractions and wonders of Tuscany, from the green hills of the inner countryside to the splendid sea coast. If you prefer the latter, you should visit Punta Ala, on the southern Follonica Gulf, lying beautifully on a green stripe of coast, just in front of a grand pinewood. Not far from Grosseto, Punta Ala is a main touristic location, providing the visitors with night clubs, restaurants, a nice and elegant port, competing with the most famous ports in Italy and the most famous golf camp in Italy.
