600 year old vacation home in the region's most beautiful village

Montemerano is one of the most picturesque villages within the Maremma, it is situated on a hill. It encapsulates the inviting beauty of the 14th century architecture, but without the mass tourism. The house is carefully restored and suitable for children. Being located in the Centro Storico, which includes the small traffic-free square, just a few minutes from the parking place (luggage transport possible). The surrounding neighbours are locals or are Italians enjoying their holiday homes. The village benefits from 3 bars, 6 restaurants, including the famous Caino, a delightful bakery, a good butcher, a delicatessen, my small Bottega for art and ceramics and finally one of the most amazing churches within south Tuscany. The homely house can also be used by small groups (up to 8 people). Additionally I also offer an apartment next door, which can further be used by a couple with or without a child.
