The Tuscany region
This villa is situated on the Tuscan Riviera which has been Bridgewater's 'special part of Italy since 1973' and was chosen by the Sunday Times Travel Supplement March 20 as an "all star destination" in Italy. Our villas on the Tuscan coast with it's stunning mountain backdrop, wide golden beaches & beautiful countryside are only 30 mins from Pisa airport, 20 minutes from Lucca, 1 hour from Florence, Portofino & the Cinque Terre.
This area of Tuscany is unbeatable for a destination which offers the best of all worlds. Elegant beach clubs, beautiful countryside, chaming cities full of art, history, stunning architecture and culture, designer boutiques, excellent restaurants, art-exhibitions and pretty hillside villages where you will find the most delicious, authentic Tuscan cuisine!
Villa Dano is only 1.5km from the charming town of Pietrasanta, which has Roman origins. Pietrasanta nestles at the foothills of the Apuan Alps only 3km from the golden beaches of Versilia. Pietrasanta grew to importance during the 15th century, mainly due to its connection with marble (the nearby quarries in Carrara are still operating to this day).
Pietrasanta is one of Italy’s best kept secrets. Loved by locals and Italians yet relatively undiscovered by foreign tourists. From revelling in the artistic treasures and architectural wonders of the old town square to enjoying a glass of full-bodied red beside a hillside of olive trees or soaking up the sun on the wide golden beaches of Versilia, Pietrasanta's kaleidoscope of pleasures will intoxicate your mind and enrich your soul any time of the year.

We have English speaking representatives in Pietrasanta, a magical town of 'art & artists' where Michelangelo once lived. The Medieval town nestles at the foot of the marble clad Apuan alps. The Tuscan Riviera is the ideal destination from which to explore the best that Italy has to offer with a private villa as your base. Perfect for beach lovers and those who are looking for art, culture, and cuisine as well as splendid countryside.
Music lovers will be interested to know that ‘Torre del Lago’ (where the maestro Giacomo Puccini lived and wrote his operas) is only 15 minutes drive and you can enjoy Puccini’s operas beneath the stars at the open air theatre by the lake. In July Lucca hosts a summer festival where many international music stars play live within the City walls. Walking in the alps is also popular in this area of Italy and the food is some of the best that Italy has to offer…simple, fresh, rustic cuisine to satisfy the most discerning of pallets. There is also tennis, watersports, clay pigeon shooting, golf, horse-riding in the area.
A new Piazza has been created just outside the historic city walls of Medieval Pietrasanta within walking distance of the many exquisite restaurants, bars, shops, art galleries and the old town square.
How to get there
Pisa is the nearest airport to fly to for this property. (Bologna, Florence & Genoa are also within reasonable distance). The journey from the airport can be made either by hire car, taxi or train in to Pietrasanta station. Bridgewater can arrange bike hire and beach club membership prior to departure as well as other 'Finishing Touches' such as hampers etc.
Pisa airport is well serviced by the majority of lowcost airlines from all around the UK, flycheapo.com have a timetable of which low cost airlines fly where.
