Poggio ai Santi - Hotel in Tuscany
Via San Bartolo 100, 57027 San Vincenzo, Livorno
Tuscany,
Italia
Journalist and TV producer Dominique knows what people yearn for when they're away. At Poggio ai Santi, he and his wife are channelling all their imagination and flair into providing it. Here are three buildings – the main house 19th-century, the other two modern – set among roses and with spellbinding sea views. Uneven paths wind through fabulously relaxing gardens planted with a hundred exotic trees; there's even a painting hut – help yourself to art supplies and have a go at capturing the views. You breakfast on the magnificent terrace in summer with its gorgeous views: much is home grown in a buffet of sweet and savouries including home baked bread. Bedrooms are cool, Asian-chic and luxurious, bathrooms are astonishingly lush and the big, open-plan, parquet-floored suites have magnificent terraces and ingenious wardrobes opening to mini-kitchens. Enter the Royal Mare suite and you find a vast free-standing bath on the corner of your terrace... drink a toast to your good fortune as you soak, gazing across the sea to the Isle of Elba.

Francesca Vierucci:
- The Etruscan Coast is a long narrow stretch of coastline along Tuscany's coast. The name of this beautiful coastal area is tied to the presence of the Etruscan civilization that inhabited this area from the start of the 9th century BC(way before the Roman)
- The Val di Cornia, in Tuscany, begins with the Etruscan bearing witness to centuries history. A story told within the two archaeological parks, natural parks, three museums, and several lovely beaches in the areas south of the province of Livorno.
- The vineyards of the Etruscan Coast produce prestigious wines. In the Bolgheri area and its surroundings, some of the best Tuscan wines renowned around the world are produced. The Super Tuscan Sassicaia is probably the most famous.
- Sport and outdoor activitiesYou have many opportunities on the Etruscan Coast. Surf, kite surf, wind surf, horse riding and fishing. On the inland there are lots of itineraries for bike and hiking lovers in the beautiful pinewoods or forests.
- Val di Cornia offers an incredibly developed and gratifying trail network to practice Mountain Biking. Itineraries on both the region’s internal hills and along the Piombino Promontory and its beaches will satisfy your thirst of tracks at all levels.
