The house is situated near the Tuscan coast between the resort town of San Vincenzo and the port of Piombino (for ferries to Elba & Sardinia). San Vincenzo is full of cafes, restaurants and beach resorts, Piombino is great for shopping. Chiusagrande is off the road halfway between the two, set in fields of sunflowers and artichokes. The sun rises over the hills to the East and sets over the sea to the West. There are several good beach spots on this 30km stretch of coast; the nearest is just 1km through the nature reserve of the Parco di Rimigliano. The nearest town is Venturina (5km away), also home to the thermal springs of Caldana, where you can bathe outside in the middle of winter. There is no end of restaurants in the area, whether you're looking for a sea-side eatery or fine Tuscan dining. The area is steeped in history from the medieval hill-top towns of Suvereto, Campiglia Maritimma, Castegneto Carducci & Sassetta, to the Etruscan burial grounds along the coast.
