At Podere SanMartino you will spend your holiday in an approximately 600-year-old country house, situated on the Etruscan coast, in the heart of Tuscany.
Historically, SanMartino was described as a monastery for a long time, but in the course of time it was converted several times, first into a postal station, then into a pilgrimage site and later into an agricultural farm.
Today you can spend your holiday within these walls steeped in history, which we have rebuilt ourselves over the last 20 years with great attention to detail and still continue to do so.
We, your hosts, are a German emigrant family who discovered our love for Tuscany over 30 years ago. We would like to transport this feeling of life to our guests and immerse them in the local life.
We are a small family-run locanda (country house) with three units, each with its own entrance. On our grounds we have enough space to relax and enjoy, for mind, soul and pleasure.
The large pool as well as the many terraces with fantastic views, the old restored chapel (rustico) at the back of the building are accessible to all guests at SanMartino. In the newly renovated former stable and on the terrace in front of it, we regularly hold communal dinners where we cook for our guests. We always announce the menu prices before the evenings.
If you spend your holiday so close to the sea, you can of course immerse yourself in the Italian way of life on the nearby beaches.
In the supermarkets in the area you can get everything your heart desires to prepare on the barbecue or in the big kitchen in the evening.
If you don't want to cook for yourself after a long day at the beach, you can let yourself be cooked for in one of the numerous restaurants in the area. We will be happy to give you the right tips.
In the meantime, San Martino is also known for its excellent regional cuisine. We are happy to arrange a cosy evening for our guests by prior arrangement.
San Martino is a little pearl in Tuscany, and anyone who has spent a holiday here will always want to come back.
