Inside the main house
the entrance to the main house leads into the upper floor, which is home to six of Villa Cacciarella’s eight bedrooms. At the centre is a generously proportioned and luminous central hallway with light-coloured parquet flooring, white walls, and an elegantly furnished sea-view sitting area, whose wall of sliding glass doors opens out onto a terrace.Accessed from either side of the hallway are the bedrooms, four of which have luxurious en-suite bathrooms, each one distinguished by the variegated colour of its lustrous marble cladding:
- a sea-view double with en-suite shower room, sea views and a wall of sliding glass doors opening out onto the same terrace accessed from the sitting area in the hallway
- a second sea-view double, also with en-suite shower room
- a double with en-suite shower room and views over the garden and pool
- a double-twin with en-suite shower room, garden views and a private balcony
- a double with garden views and an adjacent bathroom with tub and shower attachment
- a children’s bunk room sharing the bathroom with tub with the previous double
To the left of the central staircase is the superbly equipped kitchen, which features a central island bar, grey marble work-tops, a large red range cooker, bronzed wooden cabinetry, and easy-flowing access to the al fresco dining terrace. A door at one end opens into an auxiliary chef’s kitchen with red-painted wooden cabinetry, marble-topped work surfaces, induction hobs, a sink, and access to the gardens.
To the right of the central staircase, meanwhile, is the living area, whose capacious and curvaceous contemporary sofa wraps around a fireplace and gazes out to sea via more of those sliding glass doors.
Set back a little from the living area is a large rectangular dining table and a glass door accessing the side terraces.
For some, the star of the show might be the fully-stocked bar, which is tucked away near the dining area. With its wood and leather stools, its marble cladding, shelving and countertops, its dark-wood island, its stone feature wall, and its mirrored ceiling, this is an atmospheric spot indeed.
Accommodation in the main house is completed by a guest WC near the bar. Once again, variegated marble adds a healthy dash of opulence.
Inside the apartment
the apartment is located below the main house and accessed via steps leading down through the gardens. It comprises an open-plan living and dining area with well-equipped kitchen corner, and two double bedrooms, each with its own en-suite shower room.Outside
al fresco life at Villa Cacciarella largely plays out around the lower floor of the main house. A wall of sliding glass doors near the kitchen and the living area allows the communal space to spill outside onto a wide expanse of terrace looking out to sea. There is a panoramic al fresco dining area, a well-furnished sitting area, and, following the terrace around to the side of the house, a table and chairs and a ping pong table.Steps lead down from the main sea-view terrace (and from the chef’s kitchen), to the leafy gardens. At the centre encircled by a manicured lawn is the tempting heatable pool. Mature trees rise up to provide seclusion, super-comfortable double daybeds gather under a shady pergola, and a dedicated WC adds practicality.
External steps link the lower floor terraces and gardens to the upper level of the main house and to the apartment below. The former has a comfortably furnished al fresco sitting area gazing out to sea and, accessed from one of the bedrooms and from the central hallway, a spectacularly panoramic terrace with wide-open views of the sea, the island of Giglio and the verdant coastline of Monte Argentario. The apartment, meanwhile, has its own sea-view gardens, meaning that there’s plenty of space for everyone to find their own spot.
Last but not least is the fitness room, which is located up some steps from the upper floor terraces. Equipped with Techno gym equipment and yoga mats, this is ideal for anyone wishing to keep in shape while away.
About the Area
Villa Cacciarella is located on the northwestern tip of Monte Argentario, a mountainous peninsula connected by a pair of slender isthmuses to mainland Italy. Less than 2km away is the picturesque harbour town Porto Santo Stefano, which has a large selection of restaurants, cafés, bars, shops, and other amenities.
About 400m along the road from the villa, a dirt track leads down for about 220m to Cala Cacciarella, a gorgeous spot for swimming off the rocks. It's a great walk - about 30 minutes going down - but quite steep, and hard work coming back up. We recommend you wear walking shoes or trainers and take water with you.
Monte Argentario is a magnificent destination for a holiday, and offers a great mix of beaches, hidden coves, crystalline waters, hiking trails, water sports, hill-top fortresses and two historic towns: the aforementioned Porto Santo Stefano in the north, and Porto Ercole in the southeast.
Down on the coast below Villa Cacciarella (which stands some 100m above the sea), are two rocky coves, Cala del Pane and La Cacciarella. It is possible to hike down to them following the rough paths that lead from near the villa, but proper footwear should be worn as the descent is steep. There are a few more easily accessible beaches around Porto Santo Stefano and a couple of sandy ones - Giannella and Tramonto - on the northern isthmus connecting Monte Argentario to the mainland. Running all along the southern isthmus, meanwhile, is the idyllic, 6km-long sandy beach of Feniglia. Many of the bays and coves along the west coast of Monte Argentario, including Cala Grande, Caletta dell'Amore, Cala del Gesso and Cala Piccola are most easily accessed, or only accessible, by boat, and we heartily recommend you rent one for a day or more to explore the fascinating coastline.
Once arrived on Monte Argentario, you may wish to concentrate your explorations there, but it is also well-placed for discovering the south of Tuscany. Orbetello, located on the lagoon that separates Monte Argentario from the mainland is a 20-minute drive, the mediaeval hill-top town of Magliano is 35 minutes, historic Grosseto is about 50 minutes, and the coastal gem of Castiglione della Pescaia is just over an hour away.
Considerations
Due to the nature of the property including terraces low walls and several drops around the grounds, children must be supervised at all times.
The number of steps that must be negotiated to get into and/or around this property might make it unsuitable for people with mobility problems.
Please note that the efficacy of the pool heating can be impacted by the external temperature and weather conditions in the area; as such as we cannot guarantee a maximum temperature of the water.
