Podere Gli Olmi
is situated in a central position, a few minutes from
the sea of the Etruscan Coast and near to the
highway to reach easily the Maremma towards
south, Livorno and Pisa towards north.
Podere Gli Olmi an antique farmhouse has
been carefully restored, trying to maintain the
original style made of terracotta tiles and stone. The
accommodation is composed of two buildings: the main
building and the stables, now holiday apartments. It
is a family run business: Raffaele has
personally cared the restoration works of the whole
structure, whereas Sabina, his wife, was
responsible for the administration job. The two are
assisted now by other family members and some
employees.
In
the main building on the ground floor, there are the
reception, bar, kitchen and the particular dining
room, where they recuperated entirely the antique
stone and brickwork,
bringing them back to the original splendour. On the
first floor, there are six rooms with bathroom:
also here is prevailing brickwork and stone. The rooms
have been furnished with great care and taste,
opting for elegant furniture.
Every room has different colour completely matching
the accessories with the dominant colour of each room.
Nearly all the rooms have 2 windows and are therefore
very bright.
Inside,
there is a double bed and on the garret there are
other 2 single beds.
The
apartments, 2 one-roomed and 4 two-roomed, are
situated in the old stables, but as it is the same
structure, also here are prevailing brickwork and
stone. In order to obtain a lighter furnishing, ideal
for small families with children, modern style and
Tuscan country style have been skilfully combined.
Both, apartments and rooms are equipped with air
condition, safe and satellite TV. Outside, a park with children's
playground, swimming pool (size 10x20m, depth
1.40-3m) with springboard and sun terrace

products. For dinner, it is possible to
