Set in Central Tuscany just 2 kms from the lovely town of Lajatico, birthplace of the tenor Andrea Boccelli, it is set in breathtaking countryside. The natural contours of the land have been used to create the Teatro del Silenzio. In the summer months some of the biggest names in opera come for a special performance with the singers. This open air theatre was built especially to host this just once annual event and hence its name. The quintessential Tuscan countryside around Lajatico offers superb views.

The area is in the heart of Tuscany nestled between Pisa and Florence this colourful landscape of rolling hills dotted with medieval villages, castles and lanes flanked with tall dark green cypress trees which epitomise Tuscany.
The area is scattered with historical towns and medieval villages, castles and country churches and a landscape with golden meadows of wheat dancing in the breeze, vineyards, olive groves and fields of sunflowers. Meandering through the countryside of Valdera you feel the vestiges of the mysterious Etruscan civilization.
Casciana Terme has thermal waters and spa facilities and is a pretty town with piazzas and cafès serving the local wine. The città d’arte (cities of art) include Volterra, San Gimignano and Palaia with Florence just 60 km and Pisa 30 km away.
