“A unique nature retreat—simple, authentic, and unforgettable.”
This place is truly unique, situated on the site of a historic Medici‑era fortress on a hilltop next to Rocchette Castle; the views are breathtaking, the grounds spectacular, and you’re surrounded by untouched nature; the cottages are well furnished and quite comfortable; if you want to watch a sky full of stars at night and have breakfast overlooking Montecristo Island, this is the spot; the public beach is easily reachable, though a car is recommended to go up and down the hill; parking is available on the property; for us it was unforgettable and we hope to return; we fell in love with it, and a special thank you to Carlo, the caretaker, who is a true guardian angel who somehow solves every problem as if by magic; the downside is that it’s in the middle of nature, so expect a few inconveniences – occasional short water or power cuts, but Carlo fixes them quickly; there are many insects and mosquitoes, so bring repellent even though windows have screens; the cottage has practical quirks – the kettle and hairdryer only plug into a hidden outlet under the counter; remember this isn’t a luxury boutique hotel but a rustic cottage.
