The Villa del Cuculo is located in the heart of the Tuscan countryside, a few kilometers from the ancient medieval village of Palaia in the province of Pisa. The building enjoys a spectacular panoramic view (360 °) with a private olive grove of about 10 hectares where excellent organic olive oil is produced.
In the heart of Tuscany
A breathtaking view and the 10-hectare private olive grove (with its own production of organic olive oil) make the atmosphere of the villa unique, arousing strong emotions and indelible memories in anyone who wants to stay there.
The place guarantees absolute privacy and therefore it is not surprising if, walking in the surrounding woods, you might come across pleasant encounters with the local fauna and flora characterized by native animal species such as deer, nightingale, hoopoe and not least the cuckoo from which the house took its name.
