Traumhafter Außenbereich
Die Gastgeberin Claudia hat uns sehr herzlich empfangen. Der rießige Außenbereich samt Pool waren sehr, sehr sauber. Innen natürlich etwas beengt aber die Aussicht entschädigt dafür. Auf das Privatgelände passen zwei Fahrzeuge, die Zufahrt führt über einen Schotterweg, ist aber für ein normales Auto absolut machbar. Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis Top!

toller Urlaub
wir hatten herrliche Tage im La Fornace. Absolut schönes Häuschen mit Pool. Perfekt eingerichtet in sehr ruhiger Lage und doch nur wenige Minuten in den Ort. Super nette und hilfsbereite Gastgeberin. Es war für uns einfach nur perfekt. Geniale Aussicht auf die Maremma bis hin zum Meer. Sehr gerne irgendwann mal wieder.

Traumhaftes Anwesen, traumhafter Ausblick
Die Bilder versprechen nicht zu viel. Beim Gebäude handelt es sich am eine alte Ziegelbrennerei aus dem 19. Jahrhundert, das liebevoll zum kleinen Wohnhaus umgebaut wurde. Alles ist in sehr gepflegtem Zustand. Sowohl der riesige Garten, als auch der Pool sind komplett eingezäunt. Ideal mit kleinen Kindern. Der Ausblick über die Maremma ist Sagenhaft. Kommen gerne wieder.

Uriges Häuschen mit fantastischen Außenbereich
Wir waren eine Gruppe mit zwei jungen Paaren und sind mit dem Auto angereist. In Roccastrada hat uns die Hausbesitzern herzlich empfangen und ist zur Unterkunft vorgefahren. Die Zufahrt zum Haus ist ein schmaler Schotterweg. Wir sind mit einem Mittelklassewagen gerade durchgekommen. Dafür wird die Fahrt mit einem herrlichen Ausblick über Maremma belohnt und einem Außenbereich der seines gleichen sucht! Der Pool war riesig und sauber. Die Besitzerin war sehr hilfsbereit. Nachts Hundegebell.

Hervorragender Urlaub
Die Unterkunft entsprach genau den Beschreibungen inkl. Fotos. Herrliche Alleinlage mit bester Aussicht über die Maremma bis zum Meer. Ortszentrum dennoch in zu Fuß erreichbarer Nähe.

Sehr schön
Sehr schön und ruhig in der Natur gelegenes Ferienanwesen. Das Haus hat alles was man benötigt. Der Pool und die Aussicht sind traumhaft. In der starken Mittagshitze wären mehr schattenspendende Orte wünschenswert.
