Idyllic location, peaceful aromatic garden for absolute relaxation & tranquility

We're pleased to welcome you to a 300 year old stone barn on the Podere Sant'Angelo estate 700m high in the heart of Maremma.

Where once wine, cheese and cereals were stored, today you'll find our romantic holiday home 'Zolferate'. With its 50 square metres, a bedroom with a double bed, a fold-out armchair for one more person and a living area with sofa bed, it's perfect for couples or small families. For our smaller guests, we'll be happy to provide you with a cot and a highchair.

Zolferate has access to a private garden - a great place to while away lazy summer afternoons. At night the milky way stretches over the property and it's fun to see who can spot the most shooting stars.

Podere Sant'Angelo is special for its peaceful, tranquil location, great views, sunsets and lovely mediterranean garden.

Visit the
- hot springs at Saturnia
- Etruscan remains around Pitigliano
- UNESCO heritage landscapes of the Val d'Orcia
- hilltop towns of Montalcino, Pienza and Montepulciano
- unspoilt beaches of the Parco Maremma

Your host will welcome you in English, German, French or Italian and will be happy to answer any questions you may have. Escape the stresses and strains of everyday life and experience Tuscany in its most original form.

Discover classic Tuscany: San Gimignano, Siena and Florence are within easy reach, as are the villages of Montalcino, Montepulciano and Pienza. Day trips to Rome are also possible by train from Grosseto.

Good to know: Podere Sant'Angelo is off the regular road network. You reach the holiday home after three kilometres on a well-maintained 'strada bianca' (gravel road).

Marvellous Maremma
The Podere Sant’Angelo farmhouse is in a beautiful spot in the remote, mountainous Maremma region of Tuscany. Its old barn has been charmingly converted into two apartments, each with its own terrace area. It was a great base for pottering around local mountain villages, all with long histories, and for walking and wildlife. We saw porcupines, martens, hares, wild boar, deer, and lots of interesting arthropods. We also went on some great excursions to the gentler Tuscan landscapes and wine and art towns of the Val d’Orcia, to Etruscan villages and necropoli on the Lazio borders, and to unspoilt beaches on the Maremma coast. Getting anywhere involved a long drive on narrow, winding roads - but this area is way off Tuscany’s beaten track and well worth the drive. The owner has lots of good restaurant recommendations!

Blissful retreat
Beautiful remote location. Airy, high ceilinged rooms, immaculately looked after. Very special garden clearly lovingly tended. Wonderful walking, especially to Rochette di Fazio and the truly excellent Trattoria Cacciaconti. Graham very friendly and helpful. A real retreat for people who want to get away from it all and enjoy La Maremma countryside.

Unforgettable stay in deepest Tuscany
Podere Sant'Angelo is located in the Maremma district of Tuscany, surrounded by stupendous scenery. The cottages are comfortable and tastefully decorated with outdoor patios for sunbathing, star-gazing or watching the sunset. There are trails around the property for wildlife enthusiasts (we saw deer, eagles and a wild boar). If you can tear yourself away from the apartment and beautiful garden, you can visit medieval villages nearby and relax in the hot springs of Saturnia. thank you Graham. We had a wonderful stay.

Stunning holiday hideaway in glorious Tuscany
Podere Sant'Angelo is a real gem of a holiday let, tucked away off the beaten track - literally! We followed the owner's detailed instructions and arrived easily at the honey-coloured property set in a gorgeous garden. The apartment was delightful with a comfortable bed and well-equipped kitchen. We enjoyed sitting on the patio, watching the sun go down over the hills and waiting for the stars and the fireflies to come out. A short stay but a real treat.

Starry starry night in Tuscany
We had a very pleasant stay - lovely apartment, helpful and friendly owner and amazing views of the Tuscan hills. the only problem was that it was too short - only one night. But what a night! I've never seen the stars so clearly - the Milky Way was very visible. We'll be back!

Quaint, restful, beautiful, comfortable with a perfect location for a real Tuscan experience.
We began our vacation with one week here. The cottage was perfectly appointed in an idyllic landscape of rolling hills, charming hill towns, fantastic restaurants, and a gracious and helpful owner. We will definitely return! Thank you so much Graham! Your new American friends, Craig and Marhya

Ruhe und Erholung in der Natur
Graham ist ein liebenswerter und hilfsbereiter Gastgeber mit vielen Tipps. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtete Ferienwohnung mit überwältigen Außengelände. Herrlicher Ausblick, sehr liebevoll gepflegte Gartenanlage. Wer Ruhe in der Natur sucht ist hier gold richtig. Schönes Wandergebiet, in Roccalbegna gibt es sogar einen kleinen Einkaufsladen mit vielen Bio-Produkten. Die Einwohner sind alle sehr zuvorkommend und nett. In der Nähe befindet sich das Naturthermalbad Sarturnia, was wir sehr genossen haben. Wir waren von 30.04.16 bis 07.05.16 dort und hatten eine sehr erholsame Zeit. Vielen Dank an Graham Erika und Bernward

Un havre de paix.
Voilà un site exceptionnel , perdu dans les colinnes du Sud Toscan. Les charmants logements sont bien équipés et d'une propreté irréprochable . L'accueil de Graham est empreint de gentillesse, simplicité et sincérité. La région est d' une beautée et d'une richesse culturelle incroyable méritant sûrement plusieurs séjours. Bref une semaine parfaite que nous recommandons vivement.

Sehr zu empfehlen!!!
Podere Sant Angelo (wir waren in der Fe-Wo. Zolferate) ist in vielerlei Hinsicht ein sehr zu empfehlenswerter Ort! Die Wohnung ist sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet und macht insgesamt einen gemühtlichen Eindruck. Zolferate besitzt eine eigene überdachte Terrasse, von der man einen Weitblick ins Albegnatal hat und einen eigenen, kleinen Gartenbereich. Urlaub mit Hunde ist hier problemlos möglich. Ausgesprochen angenehmer und gastfreundlicher Vermieter, der u.a. auch gute Deutschkenntnisse hat. Poders Sant Angelo liegt so, dass viele und abwechslungsreiche Tagestouren in die nähere Umgebung machen kann. Kleiner Wermutstropfen ist die etwas lange Schotterzufahrtsstraße, über die das Ferienhaus zu erreichen ist. Insgesamt: Sehr zu empfehlen!

Can't say how much I enjoyed it. The surroundings were beautiful with mountains in the distance and flowers and plants galore. After Venice and Florence the serenity offered here was just what was needed. Enjoyed the surrounding villages with the "bars" where cappuccino and dolce was very enjoyable. Food in the family restaurants was just totally enjoyable with specialention for The Grotte restaurant in Roccalbenga. Graham couldn't have been more helpful or pleasant. He answered all our question gave good advice and spent as much as was needed. (No I'm not related).

Völlige Ruhe und Entspannung
Wer hierher kommt kann sie finden - die Ruhe. Grillen, Bienen, Schmetterlinge, alles summt und zirpt. Aber so angenehm, dass man es nach der Abreise schon vermisst. Dazu kommt der Ausblick von der Terrasse, einfach himmlich. Die Wege in die Dörfer der näheren Umgebung sind zwar nicht so lange, ziehen sich aber schon etwas wegen der doch sehr kurvigen Strassen. Für 2 Personen ist im Apartment alles vorhanden. Die Betten (Matratze) super gut. Und sollte irgendein Wunsch da sein, sprecht Graham an. Er hilft jederzeit sehr gerne. Unbedingt zu empfehlen ist das heiße Naturbad in Saturnia und Ausflüge zum Monte Amiata oder auch Monte Labbro. Das sind Rundblicke, die man einfach erleben sollte. Die Toskana liegt euch zu Füssen. Und wenn ihr dann wieder ins Apartment zurückkommt, Erholung pur.

Podere Sant’Angelo is how you imagine your perfect holiday home should look. Comfortable house, great view from your terrace, lots of interesting things to do and see. Graham, your host is kind, very helpful and also very knowledgeable about villages to visit and restaurants and shops to go to in the neighbourhood. This part of Tuscany is less known, and there are far less tourist than for instance Florence or Siena.
