Poggio del Barbiere

Basic information

Poggio del Barbiere, is the name of a most attractive and comfortable seventies-style villa near the coastal resort of Punta Ala, in north Maremma - and a great location for a family vacation. Built close to the shore, the property is a short stroll from the famous marina. A mere ten minutes is all it takes to walk to the wide sandy beach and golf club, riding stables and tennis courts are all within the vicinity.
During the day, the Punta Ala Marina is a lively, colourful place with the comings and goings of boats and pleasure craft; it also attracts many elegant yachts that pull in during their Mediterranean cruises. Later, after dusk, the marina, with its nightlife and excellent restaurants, is a fantastic venue for drinks and meals out with friends. Poggio del Barbiere has a beautifully tended garden that overlooks the Gulf of Follonica and the historic Isle of Elba. Its landscaping complements the house perfectly. In fact the garden is a truly idyllic spot for relaxing afternoons and barbecues with mouth-watering Tuscan steaks.

Amenities

The villa's layout

You enter the house via a lofty, shaded pergola. The entrance hall leads to a spacious double living room with large French windows that give on to the front terrace and garden overlooking the bay. Further on, to the left, the dining area has a fine round table that seats eight. From the dining area, a door opens onto a corridor leading to a single room on the left and then to a small bathroom; the kitchen is at the end. It is a luminous room with big windows that look onto part of the garden. The sleeping area is floored with parquet and starts to the right of the entrance hall. A corridor leads down to the rooms: a double bedroom on the left is followed by a bathroom with shower; further on, still to the left, there is a second double bedroom and twin bedroom. These rooms both have their own bathrooms with shower on the right of the corridor. A single bedroom to the right at the end of the corridor completes the ensemble.
