…..fascinated by this village, I decided to create a welcome place, and an Inn was the perfect formula to give guests the opportunity to switch off from everyday life, regenerate themselves in an authentic context, and experience the special emotions that I had myself. .. (Alessandro Prosperi)

Our stay at La Locanda was great. Comfy bed. Air conditioning. Breakfast on the terrance every morning overlooking the hills of Civitella… priceless.
– Gayle and Gary, London, Ontario, Canada
Nella Locanda oltre ad una tranquillità pienamente toscana e pasti da ristorante di lusso, troverai la grande compagnia del ristoratore, estremamente amichevole guida perfetto per conoscere le tipiche viste panoramiche dei dontorni.
– Chiara, Bologna, Italia
La Locanda provides a cozy “home away from home” during a breathtaking stay in Tuscany. Amazing panoramic views are to be had every morning while leisurely enjoying breakfasts of homemade croissants, pastries and fresh fruit on the terrace. The intoxicating scent of jasmine evelops Civitella Maritemma, allowing one to leave all worries behind. Alessandro has created a haven in a truly captivating setting.
– Carissa, The Netherlands
La Locanda is an excellent place to stay if you want to get a real sense of Tuscany. The rooms are big, clean and very comfortable. The owner of la Loconda, Alessandro, is the best Chef in the area! the Loconda experience is totally worth it!!!!

Between the Sea of Maremma and the hills of Siena
La Locanda nel Cassero,bed and breakfast in Alta Maremma, is located in the heart of Tuscany, in the medieval village of Civitella Marittima. The village is situated halfway between Siena and Grosseto and is ideally located between the crossroads of the most famous and popular areas of Tuscany: Siena, Val d’Orcia, Crete Senesi, Maremma, the Colline Metallifere and Massa Marittima, the Maremmana coast, with the Argentario, the Natural Park of Maremma, Mount Amiata, the Etruscan areas of Roselle andPitigliano. In just over an hour you can easily reach Florence to the north and Lake Trasimeno to the east. Pisa is 2 hours away and Lucca approx. 1 hour and 45 minutes.
La Locanda nel Cassero is an ideal base to explore southern Tuscany and to enjoy one of the most beautiful corners and most peaceful and unchanged parts of the region. One may choose a mountain one day and the other the sea; one day a city of art and the other enjoy the uncontaminated and dramatic Tuscan countryside, with its hills and its rows of cypress trees, the country churches and farmhouses, the large oak trees and vineyards, olive groves and red sunsets.
The village of Civitella Marittima
The village dates to medieval times with the first documentation of the Castle of Civitella being around 1000 A.D., following the construction of the Abbazia Ardenghesca.
The history is tied to the Ardengheschi family and is originally known as Civitella Ardenghesca and it remained unchanged for many years up to the fall of the powerful family in the 15th century. The name used thereafter was Civitella Marittima, which means “a little town in Maremma”, even though the surrounding area is still referred to as the “Ardenghesche hills”.
The village lays on top of a hill that overlooks the hills of Maremma on one side and on the other the hills of Siena. It is a typical Tuscan village: with houses that have been built one on top of the other creating one single nucleus from the stone and brick wall features that reveal the ancient medieval origins and in the squares in the center and narrow streets that intersect with the local everyday life.
The surroundings of Civitella Marittima are characterized by the uncontaminated nature of the forests, undulating hills and beautiful landscapes thanks to its position where these beautiful panoramas can be admired as far as the eye can see.
Among the places that deserve to be mentioned and whose history is inextricably tied to that of the historical territory of the area of the Terme di Petriolo. Bagni di Petriolo, is the name of the town situated 10 km away from Civitella and well-known since ancient times for the source of the sulphurous thermal springsthat flow there,and their healing benefits, which even today is a very popular destination for spa and health treatments. The ruins of the ancient fortress and the historical testimonies recount the battles that were fought as well as the passage of distinguished personalities such as the kings, popes and noblemen.
Civitella Marittima is strategically positioned, from here you can reach in just a few minutes the numerous historical-artistic and naturalistic touristic interests: Siena, San Gimignano, Grosseto, Montalcino, Massa Marittima, Pitigliano, Volterra, the archeological site of Roselle and Ansedonia, the abbey of San Galgano and San Antimo, the springs of Petriolo and Saturnia, the Natural Park of Maremma (WWF), the park of Amiato and the Park of Val d’Orcia. The beaches along the coast of Castiglione della Pescaia, Follonica, Marina di Grosseto and Mount Argentario with Porto Stefano and Porto Ercole; also connections to the islands of the Tuscan Archipelago such as Elba and Giglio are easy.
Guests should also not to forget to enjoy the wonderful gastronomic and wine tradition of Maremma. There are many different moments tied to the seasonal products and collecting of them. Hunting, fishing, agriculture, wine and oil all belong to the traditions of this land and of its daily lifestyle.
