Only two hours from Rome, this comfortably furnished house with magnificent lawned gardens and direct access to a sandy beach, is an ideal retreat for relaxed summer living and is extremely popular with families.

In an area famous for its Etruscan ruins, wildlife, pine forests, and beaches, Bengodi is a much loved and very charming family home that has the most welcoming feeling imaginable. Special mention must be made of the exceptionally large living / dining room (with a full size billiard table), which opens onto a shaded terrace. Those interested in an English garden in Italy will love its large beautiful gardens created by its enthusiastic owner, with many species of roses. Extensive lawns slope down to a sandy beach. In the evening, watching the sunset with Talamone silhouetted across the bay, is a wonderful experience. Boat rentals can be arranged to explore this lovely coastline and its fashionable resorts and excellent restaurants. The wildly beautiful coastline of Monte Argentario is only a short drive away and guests may like to visit nearby Porto Ercole and the fabulous restaurant at the fabled hotel Il Pelicano. Highly recommended - book early
