Set within an ancient hunting estate dating back to the 17th century, this magnificent villa stands majestically against the rolling hills of the Tuscan countryside, its white façade rising over lush green lawns and a breathtaking Renaissance garden. The estate extends across approximately 320 hectares of pristine land, encompassing dense woods and centuries-old olive trees, creating an atmosphere of absolute privacy and natural splendour. Located in close proximity to the charming town of Peccioli, as well as other celebrated Tuscan destinations, the property offers an unparalleled retreat for those seeking both cultural richness and serene seclusion.

Guests benefit from high-speed Internet WiFi connectivity throughout the property, as well as private parking facilities on the estate grounds. A regulation-size tennis court is available approximately 350 metres from the villa, set near the pool area and surrounded by the natural beauty of the estate. The expansive yard, comprising manicured lawns, shaded groves, and elegantly landscaped gardens, completes this exceptional offering and ensures that every moment spent outdoors is as memorable as the villa itself.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Tenuta di Pratello are a seamless extension of the villa's refined character, designed to invite relaxation, contemplation, and the pure enjoyment of the Tuscan landscape. The Italian Renaissance garden surrounding the villa has undergone meticulous restoration aimed at enhancing its original architectural lines, and today it enchants visitors with the scents of roses and lavender, whose deep purple hues frame the white gravel paths leading to the villa's entrance. Colourful flowers bloom in abundance throughout the garden, while perfectly manicured and constantly irrigated lawns provide a verdant carpet across the estate. Strolling through the grounds, you will discover several intimate groves where benches and tables have been arranged to offer secluded spots for relaxation, entirely surrounded by nature. Old wells, vine-covered doors, and glimpses of a bygone era lend the outdoor areas an evocative, almost cinematic quality. The exterior has been thoughtfully organised to allow guests to dine al fresco or simply unwind on the lawn, absorbing the panoramic views of the surrounding countryside.
The rectangular non-heated swimming pool, measuring 16.5 x 8.5 metres and covering an area of 140 square metres, features a depth ranging from 1.30 to 2.50 metres and is situated approximately 350 metres from the villa, ensuring complete independence in terms of privacy and tranquillity.
