Villanovia Country House and SPA - inside nature, art surrounded Villanovia is in Tuscany in the center of the triangle made by Pisa, Siena and Florence. It is perfectly located for exploring the real Tuscany. Villanovia is 9 km from the historic town of Volterra. Volterra is a real, all year round, working town with restaurants, cafes, supermarkets and all modern facilities. Villanovia overlooks a hilltop outside the village of Mazzolla and uniquely positioned inside a Natural Park, one of the protected areas of Tuscany, called Berignone-Tatti . Mazzolla was originally an Etruscan settlement, called Mazzum, the first historical document that attests the existence of Mazzolla dates from the year 1000 when the Bishop of Volterra was received there. The natural reserve of Berignone is a completely untouched and unspoilt resort populated by a large variety of wild animals, some peculiar birds and night-birds as well as a dense and typical mediterranean forest. There are numerous horse-riding, trekking and biking paths inside the park as well as cultural routs to the ancient middle-age ruines of the Bishops' Castle, the Castle of Luppiano and the fortresses of Rocca Sillana. There are a few rivers that cross the natural park, all affluents of the main Cecina river that forms a large valley and dies into the see in the nearby Etruscan Coast. One of the few remaining untouristic spots of Tuscany. Not to be missed. Volterra is a town of great architectural interest located 1770 feet above the sea level, between the rivers Bra and Cecina in Tuscany, Italy. The main features are two fine castles and numerous Etruscan remains. The area is easily accessible from Pisa by car with a journey time of just one hour.

And, still, there is. In the Cecina Valley, the territory dominated by the ancient Etruscan town of Volterra, there is the Natural Reserve of Berignone, a forest which covers about 2166 hectares, with its unspoiled nature, wildlife and unique scenery. To the north of the reserve is contiguous with the stain of Tatti, the best known "wood of oak Tatti", and forms with it a single forest complex, one of the most valuable vegetation of the territory of Volterra. The forests are the dominant element of Berignone with forests of tall trees of oak that span until near the river Cecina, with the Sellate and Fosci streams that characterize the landscape of the valley, rich in important natural and historical heritage. The traces of man Up to half of the '800 these forests were intensively used to provide firewood for the boilers of Saline di Volterra, many areas of the former charcoal scattered in the reserve are to witness this past activity. But the most important evidence of ancient human presence is definitely formed from the remains of the "Torraccia", the castle of the Bishops of Berignone, one of the most interesting and fascinating medieval settlements in the territory of Volterra, whose mass is placed to dominate the valley of the Sellate river and the impressive gorges of the Rio Botro. In the Castle, for a long time owned by the Bishop of Volterra, justice was administered and it minted its own money. Destroyed and rebuilt several times, had the quarter-deck, seat of the bishop's residence, his most important nucleus and inside the double city walls of protection, there were also a church dedicated to St. Michael, and a hospital, possibly dedicated to St. Antony and known as the "hospital of the poor." The ruins today are an attractive destination for a walk in nature. Fauna Visiting the reserve is immediately evident the presence of many birds of prey, who go there to eat near the fields and rivers, snakes and among mammals, the wolf. It 's easy to see mouflons, wild boars and deers, which, with their abundance, are an important food source for the wolf. The nature and intensity of its long history make Berignone a unique natural oasis, untouched and now largely undisturbed by human presence. Within this territory is Villanovia. The property can only be reached via a road that has not been surfaced (gravel path of about 5 km) because it is inside a natural unspoiled area and it is really worth it!
