Positioned high on a hilltop with stunning views of the countryside in every direction. Jackmanii Capriola comprises two charming restored farmhouses - a much loved family home amidst the wild and unspoilt Maremma.

Originally a resting place for travellers and their horses, Jackmanii Capriola is now an enticing venue for a gathering of friends, family or a retreat for a group of painting or yoga enthusiasts. Casetta Grande and Casetta Piccola sit alongside one another and each is bordered by a broad and deep terrace from which one can enjoy the stunning uninterrupted views across the olive trees and ‘Macchia Mediterranea’, to the sea far beyond in the distance. Along the western side of the hill is the large pool with pergola and dining table - an excellent place for al fresco dining, or quiet reading and basking in the sun.

Both properties have been sympathetically restored in keeping with the original style and the highest quality materials have been used, at the same time as maintaining the feeling of a home and a country house. There are traditional beamed ceilings, arches, soft pink cotto floors, old family pieces and natural hand woven linens. Living rooms are both comfortable with lots of sofas and books and the spacious dining rooms provide elegant accommodation for dining ‘in’.

Nearby is the pretty walled medieval town of Capalbio and a little further afield are Siena, the Etruscan tombs of Tarquinia and the thermal baths of Saturnia. The Argentario Peninsula with its beaches, cliffs and seafood restaurants of Porto Ercole are nearby and some guests will love the opportunity to go sailing over to the Islands of Giglio and Guannutri.

Jackmanii Capriola is a stylish, comfortable home in this captivating yet unknown region of Southern Tuscany - the Maremma.

The villa was gorgeous. The highlights were: watching the signal 
for my mobile gradually disappearing to zero as I went up the dirt 
track to the house and being taught how to make fresh fettuccini by 
the new love of my life, Anna (aged 76). She could roll it so thin 
that you could see the print of the tablecloth beneath it...
Thank you, once again, for your help.
As ever,
