A traditionals estate on the southern Tuscan coast
I Cavallini lies in an area called Maremma, a lesser known and therefore all the more captivating part of Tuscany, 25 km inland from the coast, close to the peninsula Monte Argentario. Beyond the borders of the Cavallini estate you will discover an area rich in cultural landmarks, softly rolling landscape, good food and excellent wine, combining the charms of the Tuscan lifestyle with joys of an unspoilt coast. The 120 acres estate mainly produces grain and extra virgin olive oil, which can be bought on the premises.
The center of the Cavallini property is marked by the main villa dating from the 18th century. The host Laura Piccolomini d’Aragona spends most of her time here, sharing the simplicity of country life with her children and grand-children during the summer months.
Laura Piccolomini is an attentive host. The apartments at Cavallini were decorated by herself using Tuscan colourings, open fireplaces and comfortable furnishings, as well attractive family antiques.
The large pool measuring 12 x 6 m is located in a beautiful part of the garden of the Cavallini estate, with a view over a seemingly endless landscape of rolling hills, utterly unspoilt, spotted with cypress trees and farmhouses here and there.
Two very charming apartments sleeping 4 and 5, with a pergola for al-fresco meals, have been restored in the main villa of Cavallini.

GUEST REVIEWS, Il Geranio, Cavallini
"Il Geranio" scored with its fantastic location, the view over the hills and the proximity to the sea. The peace and quiet and the contemplative days by the pool, which was surrounded by fragrant lavender and rosemary bushes, contributed significantly to our relaxation. We were the only guests during the week - which was a luxury without equal.
Our hosts were very friendly and provided us with a very good welcome meal, finished off with a very very tasty pinoli tart. Kindly, our hostess sent me the recipe so that I can bake the tart again soon.
