Description
The
Peretti Farm is situated in the Province
of Grosseto, in the Maremma in Southern
Tuscany, only 5 minutes from Fonteblanda
and the Argentario Coast away.
The
farm takes its name from the primary owner Bartolomeo
Peretti (deceased in 1544). He became, because
of his heroic manoeuvres against the pirate 'Barbarossa',
Admiral of the Pontifical State.
The Peretti farm is situated in a peaceful environment
that is also easily reachable. For three generations,
more precisely from 1922 on, the farm has been
belonging to the Agostini family. Today, the
farm is managed with dedication by Andrea and
his wife Silvia.
The
farmland is formed of 36 ha, of which 1
ha wood, 1 ha olive groves, 15 ha hard
wheat, 8 ha sunflowers, 5 ha grazing
land and 5 ha of vegetables.
The farm also has a horse breeding of the Maremma
horse breed, which is very strong and meek. Part of
the farm is also the children-friendly dog and the
clever goat.
It is possible to choose between two 2-room apartments,
two 3-room apartments and 5 rooms, of
which one is suitable for disabled people.
Every apartment
and room has its own outside space with table and
chairs.
During
the summer, breakfast, with many farm
or homemade products, is served in the garden
in the pleasant shadow of the pine trees.
Children can liberally play in the garden, whereas
the parents can get relaxed in the shadow of the pine
trees or in the heat of the sun, enjoying a marvellous
view over the Maremma countryside.
Agriturismo Peretti is also ideal for those
who would like to pass a summer holiday on the sea.
The long beach of the Argentario Coast is only 5 minutes
by car away.
Other
places worth visiting are the Nature Park "Parco
Naturale della Maremma" (15 min.) extending over
a surface of 10,000 sq.m., starting from Principina
a Mare until reaching Talamone. It is possible
to make guided walks or riding excursions, during
which one can see wild animals, most of them threatened
by extinction. One of the most beautiful WWW-Oasis
in Italy can be found at Orbetello (15 min.)
with more than 150 species of water fowls, such as
the pink flamingo. Driving over the dunes connecting
Orbetello with the Monte Argentario, it is
possible to visit the characteristic holiday resorts
of Porto S. Stefano and Porto Ercole.
In
the course of time both resorts could maintain the
charm of the "dolce vita" and the character
of an old fishing village. They are also the destination
of many Italian and international VIPs, whose luxurious
yachts are mooring in the harbours.
Driving towards the inland, on meets Saturnia
(40 min.) and the hot springs, as well as numberless
medieval villages (Pitigliano, Sovana, Sorano) and
archaeological excavations of the Etruscan and Roman
times. Siena is 90 km, Florence 170
km, Pisa 180 km and Rome 160 km away.
