Tenuta San Pierino

Tenuta San Pierino: Glamping Among Forgotten Fruit Trees and the Tuscan Hills

In the heart of Tuscany, on a sun-drenched hill and just a quarter of an hour from the sea, lies a hidden gem where tranquility, nature, and sustainability come together: Tenuta San Pierino. It was here that Patrizia, together with her family, embarked on a special adventure in 2010. With an unshakable belief in the sayings “the land is always the land” and “everything returns to the land, ” they transformed this place into an organic oasis where you can stay in luxury glamping tents, complete with a jacuzzi.

Welcome to a place where time seems to stand still, and where the connection between people and nature can still be felt in everything.

Sleeping Under the Stars: Luxury Glamping Tents with a Jacuzzi

The sprawling 10-hectare grounds feature five stylishly furnished glamping tents, each with:

  • private garden
  • Jacuzzi under the stars
  • private bathroom, air conditioning, and TV
  • a microwave for small meals

Here, you’ll have complete privacy, hear nothing but birds singing, and can admire the Milky Way from your hot tub in the evening. Breakfast is available upon request, and dogs are welcome. You can simply order vegetables, eggs, fruit, herbs, and homemade delicacies from Patrizia.

The glamping tents:

  • Fico: 2+2: double bed and double sofa bed
  • Mandorlo: Double bed and double sofa bed
  • Giuggiolo: 1 double bed and 2 single sofa beds
  • Melograno: Double bed and single sofa bed
  • Nespolo: 1 double bed and 2 single sofa beds

Perfect for couples, families, or solo travelers looking for comfort in nature.

Sustainable agriculture with a soul

Tenuta San Pierino is a certified organic agriturismo (Bioagricert) that produces with care, love, and in harmony with the seasons. Here, there is no industrial agriculture—instead, it is a place where:

  • The fruit is harvested only when it is truly ripe
  • respect for the country is the top priority
  • Forgotten fruit varieties are being rediscovered and protected

Forgotten Fruit for the Future

Think of heirloom varieties like the Zitella apple, Curato pear, or Sanguigna peach. Chosen not for mass production, but for flavor, culture, and biodiversity.

“We want to preserve our country’s history while building a sustainable future,” says Patrizia.

Local flavors from our own region

In addition to olive oil and vegetables, San Pierino produces a unique Trebbiano wine, made from a single grape variety: fresh, pure, and full of character. The culinary experience here is also a delight:

  • homemade tomato sauce with herbs
  • Arugula and Cavolo Nero Pesto
  • eggplant in oil
  • quince and fig jam
  • sun-dried tomato pâté
  • spicy chili pepper jam

These delicacies are available for purchase at the farm or at local markets in the region.

The perfect base in Tuscany

Its location in the province of Livorno is ideal if you want to without the crowds. In just 15 minutes, you’ll be at Bagno La Lanterna beach in Vada, a white-sand beach with crystal-clear blue water. And less than a 30-minute drive away lies the charming town of Volterra, one of Italy’s most beautiful medieval towns.

Tip: Rent a bike and explore the rolling hills dotted with cypress trees, vineyards, and old churches.

Sustainability in Every Detail

Tenuta San Pierino is not only beautiful but also forward-thinking. In addition to its Bioagricert certification, it has solar panels, a charging station for electric cars, and 100% organic production.

A stay here is not only good for you, but also for the planet.
