Garden Apartment with Sea view in hilltop Medieval Village

Located at the beginning of the pedestrian centre of Castagneto Carducci, two garden apartments with amazing view toward the valley and seaside. The properties are high-standard furnished and each apartment has its own independent terrace for dining and independent entrances. They share the big stone-wall surrounded garden, with brick BBQ. They can be rented separately or together. Free public parking at 2' min walking from the house.

1. Peter unit is a large apartment (120 mq), with 2 bedrooms (one with fireplace), living room, kitchen with dining table, 1 bathroom, and a common area with a game-table suitable for working; plus, it has a private terrace with dining table.

2. Ester unit is a loft-alike apartment (ca 60 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 Carducci 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 'Tombolo' with thalassic therapy. Wines and olive oil can be purchased directly from producers along the world famous 'road of wine' going from CC to Bolgheri (10km). Local Festas, food festivals, and wine tastings are organized throughout the countryside from April to November.

Perfektes Refugium
Die Zeit in der Fewo haben wir sehr genossen. Die Aussicht auf das nahe Meer war fabelhaft. Ein Ort zum Entspannen und Alltag vegessen. Was nach unserem Empfinden noch wünschenswert ist, ist ein kleiner Backofen. Ansonsten: bellissimo

MIni appartamento molto grazioso con vista
L'appartamento è piccolo, curato e con tutto funzionante. Pulizia all'ingresso ottima. Terrazzino vivibile, con tavolo, piacevole per godersi dei momenti all'aria aperta. Più sotto, raggiungibile tramite una scala molto stretta a cui fare attenzione, un bel giardinetto condiviso, con vista sulle colline e il mare. Abbiamo trovato misleading le foto della proprietà, dove non si evince con chiarezza quali locali raffigurati appartengano all'appartamento piccolo e quali a quello più grande. La proprietà totale infatti viene affittata a corpo unico o suddivisa: noi abbiamo preso in affitto l'appartamento più piccolo, ma ci aspettavamo una struttura e sistemazioni differenti. Non essendo una famiglia, ma tra amici avevamo dunque necessità di privacy differenti (a partire dal bagno, per esempio): consigliamo di suddividere con maggiore chiarezza le immagini nell'annuncio in modo da evitare spiacevoli sorprese in loco. Comunicazioni con la persona che ci ha accolto precise e e puntuali. Alloggio nel complesso (al netto nota foto annuncio) consigliato. Posizione strategica in Castagneto, zona centrale ma comunque monolocale silenzioso.

Schöne Aussicht
Die Wohnung würde ich als "klein, aber fein " beschreiben. Das nötigste hatten wir. Unserer Tochter hat am meisten die Dusche gefallen, gros und separat, was sehr praktisch war. Am besten hat uns die Terrasse gefallen, im Schatten und mit herrlichen Aussichten auf Olivenbäumen und aufs Meer. Da haben wir gefrühstückt und abends meistens Pizza und Schlücken Wein genossen.

Toller Urlaub mit Einschränkungen, durch Wohnung
Die Umgebung ist wunderschön, der Blick von der Terrasse toll. Wir bekamen die kleine Wohnung.ob es sich dabei um die angegebene qm Zahl handelt, weiss ich nicht. Im Vorfeld bei der Kommunikation mit dem Besitzer, gab es etwas Verwirrung, da offensichtlich mehrere Buchungsanfragen eingegangen sind. Leider sind die Bilder in der Anzeige gemischt, so dass wir uns etwas anderes vorgestellt haben. Die Ausstattung der Wohnung ist teilweise ist in die Jahre gekommen. Ein Stuhl am Esstisch war gefährlich kaputt. Der angegebene Parkplatz war ein öffentlicher Platz. Darauf sollte die Anzeige schon eingehen! Der Weg vom kostenlosen Platz ist nicht nah. Die Küche und ihre Einrichtung animiert zum Essen gehen, was in dem schönen Ort keine Schwierigkeiten macht. In dem winzigen Kühlschrank war z.B für eine Sektflasche stehend keine Möglichkeit! ( Wussten gar nicht, dass so etwas überhaupt hergestellt wird) Auch z.B. auf Vorrat einkaufen war mit diesem Kühlschrank eher eine Kunst. Einen Toaster, Mixer usw. sucht man in der Küche vergeblich. Eine Spülmaschine gab es nicht. Die Kaffeemaschine ist, aber für Italien typisch, ein für 2 Personen kleiner Espressokocher. Hier kann man auf dem E-Herd (2 Platten) geduldig die Zubereitung zelebrieren. Das angeschlagene Porzellan ist Geschmackssache und findet bestimmt Liebhaber. Auch den angegebenen DVD Player haben wir nicht gefunden. War aber kein Problem, der schöne Blick von der Terrasse entschädigt dafür. Den Grill nutzten wir nicht, denn es wäre nur an zwei Tagen in der Woche erlaubt gewesen. Die Wohnung ist gut klimatisiert. Das Bett/ die Matratzen sehr gut, die Dusche grosszügig. Wir haben einen schönen Urlaub in der Wohnung verlebt, wobei wir tatsächlich auf Grund der Bilder ( gemischt von mehreren Wohnungen) etwas anderes erwarteten, die Wohnung ohne eigenen Parkplatz niemals genommen hatten und von der Küche inkl der vorhandenen bzw. nicht vorhandenen Ausstattung (nicht mal ein Nudeltopf in Italien!) maßlos enttäuscht waren. Der Vermieter punktet mit der Lage. Die Dame vor Ort, die die Wohnung übergibt, ist sehr freundlich!

Wunderschönes Apartment
Schon die Übergabe durch Corina war so zuvorkommend- wir waren für 15 Uhr verabredet und baten dann sehr kurzfristig darum, schon um 14 Uhr ins Apartment zu dürfen. War kein Problem! Das Apartment war blitzsauber und so gemütlich und schön eingerichtet! große Dusche und Waschbecken/ Toilette/ Bidet waren getrennt, es gibt eine Kammer mit Waschmaschine, Wäschegestell etc., einen schönen Küchen-Wohn/Essbereich mit Klimaanlage und eine große Terrasse mit traumhaftem Blick auf Castagneto und in die Ebene zum Meer. Wir waren rundum zufrieden und kommen bestimmt wieder.

Schöne Wohnung in Top-Lage
Wir waren eine Woche im August in der Ferienwohnung und können sie weiterempfehlen. Die Wohnung befindet sich genau am Anfang der Fußgängerzone und liegt daher hervorragend. Außerdem ist die Terrasse spektakulär schön. Auch der Grill-Bereich ist toll, wir haben ihn ausgiebig genutzt. Die Wohnung selbst ist recht dunkel, aber dafür schön kühl. Außerdem sind sehr viele Lampen und Lichter in der Wohnung verteilt. Die Einrichtung ist schön und zweckmäßig. Auf zwei Dinge sollte man achten: 1. Wenn man die Wäsche nicht mit dazu mietet (für 30 Euro pro Person), muss man nicht nur die Bettwäsche selbst mitbringen, sondern auch die Handtücher und Geschirrtücher. 2. Parken ist nicht einfach, zumindest nicht in der Hauptsaison. Am besten die Via Bolgherese ein Stück nach unten fahren, da findet man am ehesten einen Parkplatz. (Gepäck und Einkäufe kann man direkt vor der Haustüre ausladen). .

Posto incantevole, parcheggio un po scomodo
L'appartamento è l'ideale per una vacanza:piccolo, confortevole e completo du tutto il necessario. Il terrazzino ha una vista spettacolare e si è rivelato perfetto per colazioni e cene all'aria aperta;il giardino in comune invece non lo abbiamo sfruttato. Peccato la camera da letto abbia una finestra che da sul terrazzino dell'appartamento attiguo: nel nostro caso avevamo vicini particolarmente rumorosi e specialmente la sera era come averli a cena in camera! La casa è in postazione strategica per visitare castagneto carducci (praticamente è nel borgo vecchio) e abbiamo anche visitato agevolmente spiagge e pasini vicini; da sottolineare la mancanza di parcheggio riservato che, considerato l'elevato numero di turisti in paese, ha reso problematico trovare un posto per l'auto ogni giorno. Ultimo appunto: il servizio biancheria è scritto essere incluso, ma in realtà ci è stato richiesto il pagamento in loco.

Impression globale bonne mais appréciation malheureusement mitigée
La situation est excellente, vue exceptionnelle, bien orienté et village charmant et vivant. L'équipement de l'appartement est correct très propre ( taques électriques un peu "limite" cafetière italienne nettement trop petite (juste pour une personne) - La communication complète entre la chambre et la cuisine a comme inconvénient le bruit du moteur du frigo pendant la nuit ...) Le gros problème est la fenêtre de la chambre donnant directement sur la terrasse des voisins et une fermeture acoustiquement totalement inefficace. Avec comme conséquence l'impression de vivre avec les voisins dès qu'ils sont sur leur terrasse (déjeuner, dîner, soirée ... ), et l'obligation de dormir avec bouchons pour oreilles ("boules quies ") . Ce fut la très grosse" déception . Sauf remédiation à ce problème les deux appartements ne devraient pas être loués séparément.Beaucoup de bruit des voisins du dessus également.
