Sticciano Scalo, Maremma, Tuscany
A nineteenth-century villa fattoria in the wild Maremma, its history tied to the Tolomei family of Dante’s Pia de’ Tolomei, set inside a fifty-hectare organic estate guarded by more than six thousand ancient olive trees. Sisters Beatrice and Margherita Ramella restored the manor, granaries and stables around the central courtyard into a boutique resort and still run it hands-on; the family chapel of San Guglielmo anchors the courtyard, and the equestrian heritage survives — riding the estate trails is the signature guest morning. Receptions move from the rustic Granaio to the Orangerie to open lawns under the olives. Weddings take the whole estate: an exclusive-use format from around €51,000 including a three-night stay for up to forty-four guests, which buys a genuinely private, family-run corner of Tuscany’s least-discovered coast-country.
