Maremma, is the “Wild West” of Tuscany, characterised by a low coastline rich in waterways. Green hills dotted with sunflower fields, olive trees and vineyard is what makes this landscape famous. The Maremma area is very versatile and aside from natural beaches and medieval villages awaiting to be discovered, it offers visitors a lush vegetation. Along the same length of coastline the Parco Naturale dell’Uccellina’s (about 9.000ha of untouched nature) is home to boars, deer, wild horses, cattle and over 70 different bird species. For those who love nature, good food, interesting golf courses and appreciate simplicity and originality but don’t want to miss out on culture during their stay, the Maremma area is definitly a part of Tuscany well worth discovering.

Massa Marittima, is the “jewel” of the Maremma area. This small medieval town is set on a hill at about 400metres. Already discovered by tourism due to its beauty Massa Marittima offers a pleasant atmosphere and is never over crowded. The square in front of the cathedral is one of the most beautiful in Tuscany. Visitors who get the chance to enter one of the numerous cafés or bars at sunset will not easily forget this small town. Numerous artists have been and are inspired by the city walls, which we can admire in many well known pictures of Tuscany.
