History and Medieval Towns

Poderedodici Farmhouse is in the countryside surrounded by the Maremma hills where there are many medieval towns such as: Pereta with its tower dating back to the XIII century during the senese domination, Magliano in Toscana with its tall walls and the historic trattorie with traditional dishes, Capalbio with its centuries old olive trees and artisanal shops inside the castle.

If you want to unite history and sea our advice is Talamone, only 6 kilometres far from the farmhouse, with its fortress perched over the sea and the port or Porto Santo Stefano and Porto Ercole with the Spanish domination fortresses over the two lively towns rich in entertainment in every season.

All over the land there are traces of the glorious past of numerous civilizations like the Etruscans. In fact there are lots of references in the Archaeological Park of the Città del Tufo where along the itineraries you will be fascinated by the ancient tagliate or the unforgettable panoramas over the valleys. While doing trekking in the Vie Cave it is possible to reach Pitigliano where thanks to its Medicean aqueduct, the typical wine cellars and the astonishing church you will experience a centuries-old atmosphere.
