Welcome to this oasis of peace, in the timeless borgo of Rivalto, an open door to the wonders of Tuscany and the perfect starting point for discovering the countryside and surrounding art cities.

A few steps from Rivalto's square, surrounded by ancient stone buildings where the Tuscan tradition is palpable: from the characteristic panorama to the good food and wine. Worth visiting is the Sanctuary of Madonna del Carmine nestled in the woods. In this unchanged landscape for centuries, olive trees are cultivated, producing a quality harvest. A few minutes from Rivalto, we find the village of Chianni with all amenities. Of Etruscan origin, Chianni was a medieval castle contested between the bishop of Volterra and the Republic of Pisa before permanently passing under Florence.

Ideal for a relaxing vacation. Just 7 km away, you'll find the renowned Casciana Terme for an alternative afternoon. Chianni is centrally located for the main attractions of the area, with destinations like Cecina and Castiglioncello easily reachable through a splendid provincial road that crosses the woods of the Pisan hills. In just 40 minutes, you can enjoy both the sun and the beaches. Volterra is reachable in 40 minutes, as well as the city of Pisa and its airport.
