QUEEN OF THE GOLDEN HILLS
In the heart of the Tuscan hills, where time seems suspended among the rows of vines and the scent of cypresses, there is a story to be told - the story of Villa Bolgheri.
This enchanting residence is hidden among the gentle curves of the landscape, just 2 km from Montecatini Val di Cecina, near Volterra.
The villa is a commendation for skilful renovation, which has brought a typical Tuscan farmhouse back to life. But Villa Bolgheri is much more than a house: it is a song to the beauty of Tuscany.
A large and generous garden envelops the villa: a green oasis with lawns, a lounge area for moments of pure relaxation and a pergola with a dining table for 10, where friends and family share the joys of the table. Here, the barbecue echoes the authentic flavour of Tuscan cuisine.
But the heart of this oasis is the private swimming pool, a treasure to be discovered. 12 metres long and 1.40 metres deep, it is open from April to October, inviting you to refreshing baths and moments of pure relaxation among the loungers. The outdoor shower and comfortable sofas in the relaxation area complete the experience.
There is also a spacious terrace, equipped with chairs and a small table, ideal for sipping a glass of wine while admiring the sunset that tinges the landscape with gold.
Villa Bolgheri is a poem written among the stones, a tale of life and love for Tuscany.

Attractions
Villa Bolgheri is located at 2 km away from Montecatini Val di Cecina, a charming medieval village perched on a hill with stunning views over the Tuscan countryside between Volterra and the Tyrrhenian coast. In Montecatini Val di Cecina you can find some shops, restaurants, bank, and other essential services. Only 14 km km from the villa is Volterra, a famous Etruscan city with its walls and museum, while at 21 km away you will find the Theatre of Silence (a natural amphitheater carved into the beautiful hills of Lajatico, where every year takes place an important musical event, organized by the tenor Andrea Bocelli).
Besides, just about a 45-minute drive you will reach two other ancient medieval villages: Castagneto Carducci (which is the childhood place of the famous Italian poet Giosué Carducci) and Bolgheri.
The latter is the producing country of one of the best wines in the world, the Sassicaia. This town is, in fact, part of the Etruscan Coast Wine and Olive Oil Route, an area extending for over 150 kilometers along the Province of Livorno, including Elba Island, and consists of wine and olive oil producers. For sea lovers, the nearest seaside resorts are: Cecina (30 km), Vada (35 km) and Marina di Bibbona (38 km). For sports lovers we suggest going to the Castelfalfi Golf Club (37 km).
