But if you prefer the seaside, you have so many different opportunities at your disposal: a windy and tempered climate helps sailing and windsurfing all year long, while clean waters allow fishing. Tennis is one of the favourite sport practiced by famhouses' guests and lots of farmhouses near Grosseto are equipped with private tennis fields.

If you choose a holiday farmhouse for your vacation near Grosseto, you can't skipped a visit to the wonderful medieval town of Pitigliano. Pitigliano is a little gem, built on a tuff rock steep, displaying a magical landscape which is one of the most photographed in Europe. The town shows historical records tracking back to all the different historical eras since pre-history: the Etruscan civilization, the Roman civilization, the Aldobrandeschi period (Aldobrandeschi family reigned over Maremma for nearly five centuries), the magnificent Renaissance period ruled by the Orsini family and the final Medici and Lorena dominations. One the principal monuments in Grosseto is the Orsini palace, which hosts an Etruscan Museum with interesting findings from the archeological site of Statonia.
When you take a reservation in a Grosseto farmhouse, you're gaining the opportunity to experience fully all the attractions and wonders of Tuscany, from the green hills of the inner countryside to the splendid sea coast. If you prefer the latter, you should visit Punta Ala, on the southern Follonica Gulf, lying beautifully on a green stripe of coast, just in front of a grand pinewood. Not far from Grosseto, Punta Ala is a main touristic location, providing the visitors with night clubs, restaurants, a nice and elegant port, competing with the most famous ports in Italy and the most famous golf camp in Italy.
High gastronomy and good wines are synonim of hospitality in any farmhouse in Grosseto. We can especially point out the Val d'Orcia area as a territory where culinary arts have stayed especially loyal to the tradition: the local food tradition is indeed a wholesome and tasty one. In this well reknowned area in the province of Grosseto the main food courses are rustic dishes, made with simple, but high quality produce coming from the local countryside. Probably the most famous one is the classical fiorentina steak, a large steak, brushed with olive oil and aromatic herbs, and cooked on the grill over chestnut wood.
