Description
Property Summary
Nestled in the rolling hills of Lajatico, in the heart of Tuscany, Italy, Casale Teatro is an exceptional vacation rental that draws its name and inspiration from the nearby Teatro del Silenzio, the prestigious open-air theatre set within the natural amphitheatre of the Uccelliera, located approximately 2 kilometres from the property. Built in the tradition of classic Tuscan architecture, the casale features a striking open-face stone façade, warm terracotta floors, and wooden ceiling beams that lend the interior an authentic and welcoming character. The property is part of a well-established organic agritourism estate spanning approximately 400 hectares, offering guests a rare and complete retreat in unspoilt countryside. Surrounded by approximately 800 square metres of beautifully maintained garden, the property enjoys sweeping panoramic views over the Pisan hills, the ancient Rocca di Pietra Cassia, and the picturesque borgo of Lajatico with its towering Torre Civica. Wireless internet connection is available throughout the property, ensuring guests remain connected during their stay. 2 dedicated parking areas are provided on site, one positioned in front of the main entrance and a second directly in front of the downstairs porch, both accessible from the entrance gate shared with the neighbouring Casale Fienile. The yard surrounding the property is thoughtfully landscaped, enriched with colourful blooms, broom bushes, young cypress trees, and olive trees that line the driveway and frame the pool area, creating a serene and quintessentially Tuscan setting.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Casale Teatro are designed to make the most of the extraordinary natural surroundings and the tranquil atmosphere of the Tuscan countryside. The garden of approximately 800 square metres is delimited on one side by a hedge screen that ensures privacy from the neighbouring property. Within this beautifully kept space, a gazebo fitted with a table and chairs provides a charming setting for alfresco dining in the shade. A brick-built structure housing a barbecue is positioned near the swimming pool, adding to the outdoor entertaining possibilities. A spacious lounge area is set up beneath the wide downstairs porch, offering a cool and shaded retreat during the warmer months. The non-heated swimming pool is situated just 10 metres from the house and occupies a privileged position within the garden, offering breathtaking views over the Rocca di Pietra Cassia, the Teatro del Silenzio, and the village of Lajatico.

A cold-water outdoor shower is also available in this area. The pool uses chlorine purification and is open from the last Saturday in April until the first Saturday of October. Please note that the property photographs were taken in spring, and therefore the blossoming of flowers and the colour of the garden grass may differ from what you will find upon arrival.
Unit Layout
Casale Teatro accommodates up to 10 guests across 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, distributed over 2 floors within a two-storey house of approximately 160 square metres. The 2 floors are not internally connected, yet both benefit from direct access to the outside, owing to the hillside position of the property on sloping ground.

This level also houses 3 double bedrooms, 2 of which feature divisible beds, each with its own ensuite bathroom with shower. 1 of these bathrooms is designed to regulatory standards for guests with reduced mobility and does not include a bidet. A staircase from the kitchen descends to the covered porch on the lower level. From the porch, a French window opens into a self-contained apartment comprising a living area with a kitchenette and 2 double bedrooms, each with an ensuite bathroom with shower. An additional bathroom with shower, also built to regulatory standards for guests with reduced mobility, is accessible directly from the porch and incorporates the laundry area. The 2 large living areas on the ground floor are each equipped with a fireplace and are arranged for both dining and relaxation, contributing to the warm and inviting character of the interior.
Amenities Included

Laundry needs are catered for by a washing machine, located in the dedicated laundry area within the lower-level bathroom. Outdoor cooking enthusiasts will appreciate the barbecue housed in the brick-built structure near the swimming pool, ideal for relaxed al fresco gatherings. Each bedroom benefits from a private patio or direct outdoor access, in keeping with the property's seamless integration between interior and exterior living. Pets are welcome at the property, subject to prior authorisation from the owner, who must be informed of the number, size, and breed of animals before arrival.

Weekly linen changes and initial and final cleaning are included in the rental rate, along with utilities covering electricity, water, gas for kitchen use, and hot water. A Zer0Dep Guarantee is applied to this property, meaning guests are not required to pay a traditional security deposit on balance or upon arrival.
