About this villa rental
Villa Drago: An Eco-Friendly Woodland Retreat for Nature Lovers
If you are looking for a stay truly immersed in nature, Villa Drago is your perfect destination. Part of the historic Tenuta Fonte del Sasso country estate—now owned by a famous local oenologist and winemaker — the property is surrounded by thousands of hectares of untouched woods and countryside. Reached via a scenic road through the forest, the villa provides a secluded haven of total peace and quiet where wild deer often visit in the quiet of the morning.
The four-bedroom home has been lovingly restored with eco-sustainable principles, featuring natural materials, solar hot water, and pellet-powered underfloor heating. Inside, music lovers will be delighted to find a piano, perfect for relaxing evenings. Outdoors, guests can unwind by the private pool or on the large shaded veranda, both offering stunning views of the pristine forest. Family-friendly amenities, including a crib and highchair, are also provided.
Good to know: The owners reside in a separate wing at the back of the property with their own independent entrance, accompanied by a few gentle cats and their friendly dog, Drago — the inspiration behind the villa’s name! To ensure a peaceful environment for the resident pets and the guests, the property is strictly pet-free for guests.
The Location: The villa is reachable via a scenic 1.1 km unpaved road through the forest. While tucked away in nature, it remains perfectly central for exploring Tuscany and reaching daily conveniences such as:
2.5 km away: The hamlet of Orentano (grocery store, bars, restaurants andexcellent pizzerias).
10-minute drive: The larger town of Altopascio (major supermarkets,shops, and traditional bakeries).
25-minute drive: Pisa International Airport.
15 to 60-minute drive: Easy access to Tuscany’s greatest destinations,including Lucca, Pisa, Florence, San Gimignano, Siena, and the coast.

The house was beautiful. A slice of heaven tucked away in Tuscany.
The host was fantastic. Very responsive and we arranged for her to cook for us one night and had a wine tasting alongside. I highly recommend this experience to anyone staying. The food and wine were incredible.
It would be handy to have a few wash pods & dishwasher pods included

Beautiful restored house, very clean and tidy, nice furnishings, very well equipped. The hosts are wonderful people, very kind and knowledgeable, were greeted with a bottle of wine from their own winery! Loved Drago, big beautiful dog…and Menoo the kitty! We felt the house was a bit isolated, a little too far to walk into Orentano. Road in was a bit rough but no problem for SUV’s etc. However, with that said, the house was in a beautiful serene setting with a nice firefly display at night! We thoroughly enjoyed!

A fabulous house with all that we needed. The check in was easy with such a positive greeting at our arrival. All was explained with detail and efficiency. Nothing was left out. The hosts were absolutely fantastic. We felt at home as soon as we arrived. Actually, we found it hard to leave. Grazie Mille to Saverio and Stefania (as well as Filippo). We couldn’t have asked for anything more. We highly recommend staying here.
