Circolo Golf Maremma
Speaks most clearly to travelers who love a more natural
Circolo Golf Maremma speaks most clearly to travelers who love a more natural, less polished and more deeply rooted side of Tuscany. Here golf is woven into a landscape of bright light, Mediterranean vegetation and unhurried rhythms, far from both social display and the rigidity of more formal clubs. The course guides the player through an experience centered on continuity, environmental immersion and the simple pleasure of being outdoors, with an identity best understood as part of a wider journey through the coast, hill towns and cuisine of the Maremma. It is not a club built on international iconography, but a quality discovery for those wanting to encounter another face of Italian golf. Its strength lies in coherence with the territory: nothing feels artificial or designed purely to impress. That makes it especially memorable for travelers who value authenticity, nature and the kind of quiet luxury that comes from the quality of context rather than the quantity of built-in spectacle.

I Butteri della Maremma: l'Ultima Mandria
The Butteri are Tuscan cowboys — the last in Europe still using 17th-century on-horseback herding techniques. The Alberese Agricultural Estate, managed by the Tuscany Region, maintains the last herd of white Maremmano cattle raised outdoors in the Maremma Park. The Butteri accept private guests in the morning during seasonal transhumance.
“Head buttero Marco Botti leads private groups of 4 during the wild cattle round-up in April: you ride with them for 3 hours through the Maremma scrub. This is not a tourist attraction — it is real work, and you are accepted only if you can actually ride.”
Le Macchiole: Paleo Rosso Verticale
Le Macchiole at Bolgheri represents Tuscany's answer to Petrus: the Paleo Rosso — pure Cabernet Franc — is among the 10 most sought-after Italian wines in the world. Eugenio Campolmi's wife, Cinzia Merli, has led the winery since 2002 and brings selected guests to the Bolgheri vineyards for the Paleo vertical in the underground cellar.
“Cinzia Merli opens the 1996 Paleo — the first commercially released pure vintage — only for those who bring a handwritten letter explaining their personal history with Cabernet Franc. She does not accept email bookings for this.”
Terme dell'Uccellina: l'Acqua Etrusca
The Caldana thermal springs in the heart of the Maremma were used by the Etruscans from the 7th century BC: the site is included in the Vetulonia excavation area. The Piccolo Spa Resort at Talamone offers treatments with Caldana thermal mud extracted from the historic springs: the protocols are certified by the Ministry of Health as arthritis therapy.
“The medical director organises the Etrusco circuit — 3 hours of thermal mud, sulphurous bath, and Maremma olive oil massage — only for private guests before public opening. Includes a visit to the 6th-century BC Etruscan well in the resort garden.”
