TORRE DEL SARACENO

Torre del Saraceno – Talamone – Tuscany Coast

6 Double Bedrooms - Pool

As you leave the Via Aurelia, on reaching the kilometre signpost 157, and continuing on just a few hundred metres through the Mediterranean scrub, you begin to see the Tower, which is set on private land, closed with an electronic security gate. One cannot be but thoroughly impressed by the wonderful view and the natural beauties which appear before one’s eyes and which can be fully appreciated from every corner of the Tower. A small boulevard of magnificent agave cacti lead to the front door, creating a romantic and exotic atmosphere. On having entered the front door, on our right we come across a wide open space, which is a dining area with fireplace, and two double bedrooms each with independent bathrooms; one with bathtub facilities and the other with a shower. Continuing on, along the entrance corridor and to the left of the dining room, we find a fully equipped modern kitchen, and at the end of the corridor there is a third bedroom. It too has its own independent bathroom, with shower and bathtub. At the end of this corridor there is a staircase which leads to the first floor. Here we find an enormous living-room, equipped with air conditioning and fireplace, and from which one is free to admire a fabulous view at 180°. This living-room is furnished with comfortable lounge chairs and couches, on one side of the room and, on the other there is a rectangular antique wooden table which can easily accommodate up to 8 people. From this living-room, one has access to a splendid terrace which is divided into two areas:  dining on one side and relaxation on the other, where we also find deckchairs suitable for sunbathing.

Close to the main villa is a lovely annex which is fully air conditioned and has a sitting room and two further double bedrooms (one with four poster bed) each with en-suite shower room. 

The view from the terrace is breathtaking:  it captures Porto S. Stefano and the hills of MountArgentario on one side, and  Talamone, with its charming walled town, and the hills of the Uccellina Natural Park on the other. One can also admire a spectacular view of the islands of Giannutri, Giglio and Montecristo, this last island being a very famous marine park. On returning to the open space on the ground floor there is a small staircase which leads to the lookout tower. This, too, has been restored, and is divided into two floors. It is made up of a double bedroom, with small bathroom containing shower facilities, walk in wardrobe and living-room corner. From the second floor, one has access to a small terrace. The Talamonaccio Tower is equipped with satellite television, direct telephone and internet. Every window has mosquito nets, and every bedroom has ceiling fans. The Tower is surrounded by two terraces, one of which has been transformed into a splendid panoramic lookout, amongst the greenery of the garden, and deckchairs. It is the perfect place to sit and enjoy the wonderful sunshine, or after sunset, to enjoy the company of good friends and a glass of wine around the barbecue.
