Zolferate, peaceful romantic cottage with private garden

In the heart of the Maremma we welcome you in a 300 old stone barn on our Podere Sant'Angelo estate. There, where once wine, cheese and grain were stored, you will find today our romantic holiday rental Zolferate. With its 50 square meters, a bedroom with double bed as well as a fold-down armchair for another person and the living area with sofa bed, it is perfect for couples or a small family. We will gladly provide a cot and a high chair for our small guests.
Zolferate can accommodate up to 2 guests and one child (maximum age - 12).
The interior design is authentic with traditional chestnut wood, terracotta tiles and a typical regional fireplace. The living area is equipped with a small but fine 'cucina in muratura', equipped with microwave, gas rings, refrigerator and a traditional stone sink. The Mediterranean-look shower room has a hairdryer and towel dryer.
Can it get more Italian than this, you think? It does! A feast for the senses awaits in your private garden, with plants in glorious colours and aromatic herbs like rosemary, lavender, santolina, and sage. Grab a sunbed and let your eyes wander north to Monte Labro or across the varied natural landscapes to Roccalbegna. Spend pleasurable evenings on the covered terrace until the starry night sky arches over the landscape. Despite the quiet location you are in the most beautiful cities of Tuscany in no time. The beaches of Marina di Grosseto and the Parco Maremma are only about an hour's drive away.
You are connected to the world through our free wifi. A safe, bed linen and towels are included in the rental price as well as all utilities for gas and electricity. A washing machine can be used for a small fee.

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

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.

The perfect place.
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.
