The property
At the base of Monte Argentario, nestled in the tranquility of the Maremma countryside, “Il Picchio Verde” is a small family-run bed and breakfast that welcomes its guests into a simple yet well-kept environment. The triple rooms, each equipped with a double bed and a single bed, provide comfort and independence with a private entrance, an en-suite bathroom complete with a hairdryer, linens, and soap, as well as autonomous heating and cooling air conditioning, free Wi-Fi, and a TV. Parking is available on-site, shaded and secured by an automatic gate, and is included in the stay.
Even though it is located near the main road, the establishment ensures peace and relaxation due to excellent sound insulation and the distance of the rooms from busy areas. The strategic location makes this B&B ideal for exploring Argentario, the beaches of Porto Santo Stefano and Porto Ercole, or venturing inland to iconic spots such as the Maremma Park, Capalbio with the Tarot Gardens, the Saturnia thermal baths, or the easily accessible Island of Giglio by ferry.
Just a few kilometers away is Orbetello, a town with ancient charm, surrounded by the calm waters of the lagoon and connected to the mainland by narrow strips of land. With its Etruscan history, walls, cobblestone streets, and rich biodiversity that attracts birdwatchers from all over Europe, Orbetello is an essential stop for those wishing to discover the true essence of Maremma.
