Villa Spotlight: A Lovely Tuscan Escape At Oasi Di Benessere Bio

Oasi Di Benessere Bio is perched on a hill, 4km from the centre of Sassofortino, a tiny medieval hilltop village with a population of under a thousand, in the comune of Roccastrada, in the province of Grosseto. Boasting sweeping panoramic villas over the surrounding area - the rolling green hills and valleys for which Tuscany is so well-known, vineyards, olive groves, a patchwork of fields, and mountains in the distance – but a location that is just a short drive from nearby conveniences and incredible amenities and facilities, it is the ideal place to get away from it all in style and comfort. Leave the stresses and worries of daily life far behind but not all of civilisation: be able to readily head out and explore the wider region, and have the most stunning base to return to every day at the magical Oasi Di Benessere Bio.

Why not learn how to cook a romantic Italian meal with your partner during your vacation in Tuscany to experience an exciting endeavour that could prove to be an aphrodisiac!

Tourist couples wishing to engage in this fun learning experience can really go anywhere in Tuscany, the home of plentiful rustic cooks, but this link (no longer available) could be perfect to both stay in and enjoy a cookery lesson. It’s called Casal Gheriglio and is one of many properties in Tuscany that can accommodate visitors and provide them with a cookery lesson in one ideal package!

Many similar properties have an owner that are accomplished chefs who provide demonstrations which can include a week long, full or half day cookery course, as well as wine, honey and olive oil tasting courses. These can be enjoyed as part of a specialised price that includes your accommodation.

If you’re going on holidays to southern Tuscany this year then why not take a day to explore the hilltop town of Civitella Paganico? This Tuscan gem is perched above a sea of dense forest filled with many plant and animal species which makes it the perfect spot for nature lovers to visit.

Sink into the hot waters of the Petriolo thermal springs and enjoy the healthy benefits of this mineral rich water. Humans have lived in what is now Civitella Paganico from as far back as Palaeolithic times. This town is in fact a cluster of small villages that were bound together under the same name.

Another spotlight.... so do you really want to get away from it all, no noise, no traffic, no internet ? Just nature and beauty ?? We have it: Il Casale. This is just the typical Tuscan house and how you would imagine it, it's just that the pictures don't do it justice.

The owner Adriana takes such care of her house and the grounds, it's incredible. She's an old lady but still going strong, just leave her a note in the Guestbook ! So what you don't really see from the description and the pictures is that the interiors have been furnished with great taste and detail, and that the garden around the house is huge. There is no pool but who needs one if you can swim in the cristal clear water of the Farma river (walking distance from the house). Satisfaction Guaranteed !

While it may be news to some that Tuscany is one of the best spa destinations in the world, we have written extensively about the different thermal springs, spa towns, and spa complexes located across the region in the past. In fact, there are plenty of different options to choose from and one could even go on a spa town tour, if they wanted to, while spending time in Tuscany. However, if you have found a luxury villa in Siena and are looking to go on a spa day while staying in the province, then we recommend a visit to Bagni di Petriolo.

Famous for its thermal springs since the time of the Ancient Romans and with awareness of the healing benefits of the waters dating back as far as 1200AD, Bagni di Petriolo has long since attracted visitors who come to imbibe and soak in her waters. Throughout the centuries, the town has even drawn some particularly famous and high-profile figures from all over – including popes, cardinals, the Medici, the Malatesta family of Pesaro, the family of the Duke of Urbino, and the Gonzaga family of Mantua – such was its reputation.

As fall draws closer, we have been thinking about ways to get cosy and really slow things down and relax on holiday in Tuscany. For those who book one of our villas in Tuscany, we recommend not only enjoying the harvest delights of delicious food and wine, hiking the gorgeous landscapes and exploring the beautiful towns and villages while the temperatures turn pleasantly mild and perfect for such excursions, and making the most of the smaller tourist crowds and queues at famous attractions but also heading to a spa town. Tuscany abounds in gorgeous spa towns and destinations with natural thermal springs and we have listed many examples in the past but today’s pick is Terme di Petriolo, an easy spot to add into an itinerary if you are staying in a vacation rental in Siena.

Excellent 5^/5 Villa Review Rating Details

Marco is a very friendly and helpful owner in all things you want to know.
Good starting point for sightseeing and hiking.
The house is cute and equipped with all you need, ideal for two persons. The very beautiful, fenced garden was perfect for our dog. There are places to relax and a barbecue area. The house is on a fairly busy road.
Marco produces a very good olive oil from his own olive trees outside the garden.

very friendly owner!
very nice house ..for two persons. Really nice garden!
But....very bad !!!!matras and bed ...not for renting. And I had the impression the sheets (old and warn out ;;;)had not been washed. Luckily there is a washingmachine and I could wash them myself (but this is not the way it should be !!)
It is also situated on a very bussy road.
The owner comes by (a little to frequently)and always without warning,even if we were not present.

We really enjoyed our stay at Casa Montecalvo! The house is cute and the owner was very friendly and helpful! My boyfriend and me were there for one week. What we really liked is that the house is surrounded by a garden and 3 terraces to relax. Roccastrada is a nice and quiet little village where it is possible to purchase the standard requirements like food, cosmetics and cleaning stuff in a small supermarket.
