About Borgo Santa Chiara Srl

My family has owned property in this area for generations and our nearby Villa is our family home. My English wife, Victoria, and our three sons enjoy the warm feeling of family roots that we have here and despite our sons living in London, they are always keen to return. My mother and sister live here full time while I divide my time between Rome and Tuscany during winter but in the summer live full-time at our property as I believe that it is very important to be on hand in order to welcome and support our guests. The unique location, the tranquility and the warm welcome that our family gives, has meant that the families who rent our property are always delighted with their holiday experience with us. Tuscany offers so much that you may do with some expert advice. From here you can tour the many attractions of our region but also enjoy the closeness of our beaches. Our preferred family beach, called “Giardino Beach”, is 15 km away, offers a wide, fine sand beach with a stunning sand dune covered by huge pine trees and in front at a few miles distance the Island of Elba. When you lie on your sun bed and open your eyes, you will be stunned by the intense color contrast of the blue sky, the huge green pine trees, the white sand and the clean blue water reaching out to the islands in front of us! Here you can practice wind surf, kite surf, sailing or the pedalo, or just enjoy lazing on the beach taking advantage of its bars and restaurants. If you felt like chartering a boat, motor or sailing, you have many marvellous options. But you can change beach every day, if you wish to, and still be delighted of what you will find. Just a few suggestions, all within a 30-minute drive: Cala Violina, Punta Ala, Le Rocchette, Castiglion della Pescaia, Parco dell’Uccellina, Baratti, San Vincenzo….
