Photos and Description of this Porto Ercole area holiday villa 10 acre garden and exceptional views

Bocca d'Oro is a situated in the foothills of Monte Argentario, a mountain promontory with long sandy beaches and a rocky coastline in southern Tuscany. Apart from providing a wonderful variety of seaside activities, it is well-placed for visits to Siena and Florence, or, nearer at hand, the Etruscan tombs of Tarquinia and the sulphur baths of Saturnia. The house itself has fine views of the sea and the mountain and, with 10 acres of land, it is a completely private place and yet only five minutes from the sea and the unspoilt village of Porto Ercole with its pretty harbour, restaurants, bars and cafes. Sleeping up to 14 people, it is suitable both for families or smaller groups (when the rent is reduced but all 8 bedrooms are still available --- see Notes on Prices). There is plenty of space both inside and on the wide expanse of the terrace surrounding it. The hillside garden is planted with cypress, pine and olive trees, and in a sheltered spot among these is the swimming pool.

Location: Porto Ercole area in Italy

Nearest Airport: Rome Fiumicino at 150 Kilometres
Nearest Beach: beach at 1 Kilometres
Porto Ercole (our local village) five minutes drive, Orbetello (the nearest station) 15 minutes. Further afield but all within reach of the Argentario lie the main Tuscan towns: Siena (1.5 hours), Florence and Orvieto (2 hours) and Tarquinia, home of the Etruscan tombs (45 minutes). Porto Ercole is dominated by two 16th century Spanish forts and has a wide variety of shops, bars, restaurants and cafes. On the other side of the mountain is the village of Porto San Stefano, from where ferries sail daily to the local islands of Giglio and Giannutri. There are several tennis courts in the area and a championship golf course 10 minutes from the house. Further away, an hour's drive, are the sulphur springs of Saturnia.

Fantastic Time!

Alwin Van London
Review Submitted: February 5, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2008
We had a fantastic time in your house in Porto Ercole.

It was beyond expectations!

We had breakfast with 14 people every morning, played badminton competitions in the afternoon and looked at classic films at night.

Thanks for letting us use your beautiful house.

In love with Italy, your villa and Porto Ercole!

Char P Hawi, Hawaii
Review Submitted: January 3, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2008
I can’t begin to tell you what a fantastic time we had at your villa. I did not want to leave. Everything was so sweet and so comfortable. You really helped make my dream come true. We had such a good time cooking together, watching the sun rises, playing badminton and such. Loved the town of Porto Ercole. We found our favorite place for cappuccino's and drinks. We rented motor scooters and bikes. The weather was beautiful the whole time we were there. Thank you so so much.
