AnsedoniaHoliday Cottage Ansedonia 1 (ref. code: ansedonia 1) ...................................................................................................
The cottage is surrounded by 1.500 sq metres of private garden in a truly idyllic setting, amid typical Mediterranean landscape. The cottage offers a rental apartment, approximately 45 sq m, with its own private entrance and garden area, and a large garage. There is a large and spacious double room with a double bed and room for an extra bed if required. There is also further sleeping space in the lounge area. The newly renovated bathroom has a shower and a washing machine. The owner and his family also share the premises. Ansedonia and area To give you an idea of the area surrounding Ansedonia one needs to take a look back at the history of the region, especially the area of Monte Argentario which is an almost circular peninsular. The main town, Orbetello, was an Etruscan colony and a place of importance in the Middle ages. It was fortified in 1557 by the Spaniards who also left the Polveriera (powder-works). The cathedral preserves a lovely façade of 1376 and an early Romanesque marble altarpiece. Along with its Etruscan town walls, other sights include the Museo Civico, with archaic sculpture in bronze and stone, the pavilion, the Holy Franciscus church, the old mill and the Antiquarium. Today, Orbetello is a fashionable summer resort where, on clear mornings, there is a wonderful view across the lagoon to Monte Argentario. Monte Argentario is an almost circular penisular joined to the mainland by three 3 narrow strips of land, the outer two, both pine clad, defining the Laguna di Orbetello. The town of Orbetello occupies the central strip while the southern strip of land, Feniglia, is an enclosed nature preservation area and national park with a beautiful sandy beach shaded by tall pine trees. The park is also home to many wildlife such as red deer, wild boar and foxes. On the third strip, Giannella is a road leading to the Monte Argentario. The peninsular is now one of the most praised areas of Tuscany. It has an area of 21 sq. km with rocky bays, beautiful coves and hilly landscape of vineyards and pathways leading down to sandy beaches. Today Argentario has almost become a small world of its own with fashionable and famous exclusive resorts and private beaches for the grand summer hotels. The island is fairly crowded at the weekends in summer. Just up from the beach of Feniglia, set on a flat-topped hill (113m), is the town of Ansedonia which was founded by the Romans in 273. Surrounded by polygonal walls with 18 towers and three gates, are also the forum and remains of the old city of Cosa (Città di Cosa) that once stood here. The Hinterland also offers various possibilities for excursions and sightseeing trips, whether it be a visit to the DOC-vineyards of Parrina, Ansonica, Bianco di Pitigliano, or Morellino, the cheese farms of Manciano or Sorano that produce both excellent but very different types of Pecorino and Ricotta cheeses which are available for purchase at very reasonable prices, or Etruscan archaelogical sites such as Sorano For nature lovers, there is also the Parco Naturale della Maremma (SS1 Aurelia direction north following the signs for Alberese) which is a must. The area between Principina a Mare and Talamone, which in 1975 was designated a national park (10,000 hectares), is an area of outstanding natural beauty.
