The house is located in the historic centre of Castagneto Carducci, at the very edge of the pedestrian centre just below Della-Gherardesca castle. An excellent choice of restaurants and wine bars, plus basic services like pharmacy, banks, ATM, groceries and food shops are all at walking distance.
The property is high-standard furnished and has access to a stone-wall surrounded garden. Toll parking at 1' walking and Free parking at 4' min walking from the house.
Ester unit is a loft-alike apartment (ca 55 mq), with a 1.20mt half wall separating the sleeping area with fireplace from living/kitchen area. It has a bathroom with separate cabin shower, a table suitable for working, and a terrace with dining table.
Castagneto is a small and charming village centered around Della Gherardesca castle, in the heath of Maremma, with great heritage of ancient Etruscan and Italian renaissance culture. It offers a choice of excellent restaurants, wine bars, wine shops, museum and crafts market. The closest beach of Marina di Donoratico (8km) offers water-sports facilities including beauty farm & SPA Il Tombolo, with thalassotherapy. Wines and olive oil can be purchased directly from producers along the world famous 'road of wine' from C.C. to Bolgheri (10km). Local Festas, wine tastings, and food festivals are organized throughout the countryside from April to November.
The Larger town of Donoratico with supermarkets and the railway station is 3km away (bus service). The area is one of the best medieval hilltop districts, with wooded hills, olive groves, and internationally famous vineyards centred in Bolgheri (10km, bus service). The whole coast is studded with beautiful beaches. Marina di Donoratico (8km, bus service) has typical Tuscany seaside facilities including restaurants on the beach, water-sport facilities, beauty farm Il Tombolo with thalassotherapy & SPA, and "Cavallino Matto" theme park for children. Gulf of Baratti with Etruscan archaeological park of Populonia is 18km away, and sailing facilities of San Vincenzo and Punta Ala marinas are 10 and 30 km away.

Although there are regional Bus Lines from Donoratico to all main towns in Tuscany, the car is recommended to fully enjoy the holiday in this district. Towers of San Gimignano and Pisa are 45 and 60 km away, and Siena and Florence 1.5/2 hours by car through beautiful hills of Tuscany. Pisa airport is 60 km away and Florence is 120 km away.

Great location, nice view

We had a wonderful holiday in this charming apartment which had everything that we needed for a relaxing holiday. It has superb views from the terrace over the vineyards and olive groves towards the sea. A perfect place to enjoy a glass of wine in the evening. The village also has plenty of good places to eat. Booking was very straight forward and the agent extremely helpful. Beautiful beaches are just a short drive away and Florence is close enough for a day trip. Would recommend this apartment highly.

A fortnight in the peacefully located Ester provided us with an excellent base on the edge of an attractive medieval town in the Tuscan Coast wine region. Castagneto Carducci was conveniently placed for our visits to Florence (by train) and Siena (by car), though we booked B&B accommodation for the visits to these great cities. We selected March for our stay as we prefer our travels to be out of season, even if most of the local restaurants had yet to open.
Ester was well presented on our arrival. It has plenty of space for a couple and is very well equipped for self catering. The décor and furnishings suggest the owner has good taste. We liked the French windows which lead on to a terrace from where there is a splendid view over olive groves and vineyards towards the sea. Electric radiators provide efficient heating. The apartment has a bathroom of adequate size and a large shower area with interesting features!
Overall we enjoyed complete relaxation with no interference from the radio, telephone, TV (available if wanted) or internet though wi-fi is available in the town. We spent quite a lot of time reading, completely switched off from the pressures of retired life at home! For us this was a really excellent choice enhanced by the helpful advice of the owner beforehand. Those grandparents who may like to holiday with their children and grandchildren could occupy Ester whilst the latter could be next door in Peter. There is an inter-connecting door and flexibility over the garden use. A car is essential and there is free parking within a couple of minutes walking.

We stayed at the apartment Ester in September 2013. The owner showed us the apartment and was very nice. Ester is big and comfortably furnitured with a well-provided kitchen and a big shower. Nice view from the terrace on the sea. Village is also very sweet. Perfect holiday! It is advisable to have a car.
