Description
Hospitality, Osteria "Gentile" with veg garden, Cooking School and a stunning infinity pool overlooking the valley: il Canto del Maggio, owned by Simona and her family, isn’t just a place to sleep — it’s a place where you meet a family deeply rooted in this land and in its rhythms.
Here guests are welcomed into six charming units that reflect a rare and authentic form of hospitality: the Albergo diffuso—literally, a ‘scattered hotel’. Developed in Italy, this model revitalizes once-abandoned villages by blending comfort with local tradition in a truly immersive experience- in fact the "borgo" is a shared community between locals that live here permanently, and travelers that was born in the late 1980's.
Our collaboration with this placa was born to promote a network of local chefs, farmers, winemakers, guides, and hospitality professionals — all working together to create meaningful moments that we hope will make your stay one to remember.
My team (I am Tuscany) and I will take care of the accommodation side of your experience — from the moment you book to the day you arrive. Before your stay, we’ll coordinate with you to plan any extra services or personalized experiences, so everything is ready and tailored to your needs before you arrive.
Simona, the soul of this place, will welcome you into her world: her home, her kitchen, around her table, or walking through the vegetable garden — the orto. On the plate, a cuisine that arises spontaneously: the garden decides the menu, and we simply follow its lead.
Together, we can plan special dinners in the garden or by the pool, enjoy breakfast on the terrace or your private patio, and explore much more — from local farmers’ markets and tastings to our favorite go-to places in the area.
Available experiences include:
-Harvesting ingredients directly from the garden and discovering the joy of simple, farm-to-table cooking
-Themed culinary workshops (vegetarian, pastry-making, regional cuisine)
-Activities that immerse you in the natural beauty, culture, and traditions of the area
-Private meals (including breakfast) served anywhere on the property
-Pop-up events hosted by the restaurant or the outdoor kitchen
-Private events and retreats tailored to your needs Il Canto Del Maggio

Property Summary
Nestled on the breathtaking Costa degli Etruschi, known in English as the Coast of the Etruscans, Villa Corallina stands as one of the most remarkable vacation rental opportunities along the Tuscan coastline of Italy. Located in Marina di Bibbona, in the municipality of Bibbona, this extraordinary property dates back to 1920 and was constructed using perforated bricks and original Tuscan materials in an architectural style reminiscent of the renowned American architect Frank Lloyd Wright. In the post-war period, the villa served as the beach residence of the Marquises Ginori, and until the 1990s it functioned as a "Kinderheim," one of the many traditional summer camps for children. A meticulous restoration project carried out by the current owners in collaboration with architect Ponte of Genova resulted in the complete renovation of the original building while preserving the surrounding garden, which consists predominantly of Mediterranean maquis. The property extends across approximately 5 acres of lush grounds, offering an exceptional sense of privacy and tranquility. Guests benefit from private parking on the estate, a well-maintained yard that seamlessly blends natural Mediterranean vegetation with carefully tended outdoor spaces, and wireless internet connectivity throughout the property.

Beneath the old oak trees in front of the house, a dedicated play area features a ping-pong table, providing entertainment for guests of all ages. A magnificent portico, ideal for leisurely lunches and romantic dinners, opens directly onto the beach and offers stunning views of the red sunsets over the sea. A wooden gate located just a few metres from the portico leads directly to the beach, where guests may set up sunbeds to enjoy the sun-filled days. 2 showers with hot water are available at the beach access point for added convenience. Both the sea-facing side and the pool side of the property are furnished with umbrellas, tables, and chairs, creating comfortable outdoor living areas throughout the estate. Please note that the photographs of the property were taken in spring; therefore, the blossoming of flowers and the colour of the garden grass may differ at the time of your arrival.
The oval-shaped, non-heated swimming pool is positioned on the north side of the villa, nestled within a natural hollow in the sand dunes that already existed on the site, encircled by an amphitheatre of juniper hedges. In keeping with the owners' deep respect for the environment, no trees were cut down during its construction. The pool measures 9 x 5 metres with a depth ranging from 1 to 1.90 metres, is purified with chlorine, and features a swimming upstream function. The surrounding pool area is equipped with a bar area, deckchairs, sunbeds, umbrellas, a shower with hot water, tables, and chairs.

Description
Property Summary
Nestled in the serene Tuscan countryside of Cetona, Italy, Podere Gragnano is a captivating stone villa that stands as a testament to the timeless beauty of 19th-century farmhouse architecture. The result of a meticulous renovation completed in 2012, this exceptional vacation rental seamlessly blends original structural elements — including salvaged terracotta flooring and oak parquet — with modern comforts, all while preserving the historic character of the former farmhouse. The property is composed of 2 separate buildings: a main villa and a charming annex constructed in the style of Tuscan tradition, together set within an expansive 80-hectare farm estate. The surrounding landscape is dominated by olive trees, vineyards, and unspoiled nature, with sweeping views of the countryside and the majestic Mount Cetona on the horizon. Guests benefit from high-speed Internet WiFi throughout the property, a dedicated parking area with 4 covered spaces accessible via an automatic wooden and iron gate, and a generous private yard spanning 1.5 hectares of lush parkland. Whether you are seeking a peaceful retreat or a base for exploring the cultural riches of Tuscany and beyond, Podere Gragnano offers an unparalleled setting just 5 minutes from the town of Cetona.
Outdoors
The 1.5-hectare park of Podere Gragnano is a beautifully landscaped environment of plush lawns, low hedges, a small olive grove, and the estate's own vineyard, creating a sense of natural abundance and tranquility. Throughout the garden, you will discover a rich variety of plantings including cotoneaster, climbing roses, broom, hydrangeas, irises, fig, peach and apricot trees, and towering oaks, as well as a collection of aromatic herbs. A charming circular iron gazebo invites you to sit and absorb the peaceful atmosphere, while the pergola adjacent to the dining room — adorned with potted oleanders — is fully equipped for outdoor meals and features a wood-burning oven for al fresco cooking. Not far from the pool, tucked behind a cluster of olive trees, a delightful small brick playhouse designed for children contains 2 rooms with games and tables. Two rows of cypress trees line the short gravel driveway leading from the entrance gate to the parking area, lending the approach a distinctly Tuscan elegance. Adjacent to the parking area, a dedicated laundry room with a sink and a bathroom with toilet and shower provides additional practical convenience for guests.
The non-heated swimming pool is located in a quiet corner of the garden behind the house, approximately 40 metres away, and can be reached across a stretch of lawn or via a short flight of steps. The rectangular pool features 1 infinity side, a stone border, Roman steps, and internal lighting, measuring 6 x 12 metres with a depth ranging from 1 metre to 2.20 metres. The purification system combines both chlorine and oxygen treatment, and the interior is finished with a specialist swimming pool plaster. A generous 1,000 square metre grassy sunbathing area surrounds the pool, furnished with sunbeds, deckchairs, and a large umbrella. Just 10 metres from the pool, a brick building houses a small kitchen and a changing room with shower and toilet. The pool is available from the last Saturday of April to the first Saturday of October. Please be aware that photographs of the property were taken in spring, and therefore the blossoming of flowers and the colour of the garden grass may differ from what you observe upon arrival.
