Tenuta La Bandita Sassetta

Tenuta la Bandita is an historic estate of 55 hectares spread across sunny hills and part of the upper Val di Cornia, a few minutes drive from Castagneto Carducci, Bolgheri, Marina di Castagneto and the other beautiful beaches of the Tyrrhenian Sea. It is a magical place indeed known only to few and surrounded by bushy Mediterranean vegetation, vineyards and olive groves.

A tennis court, swimming pool and a private chapel are all at the disposal of our guests.

An ideal place for cycling or horse-riding and an excellent base for trips to the beach, the islands of the Tuscan archipelago, visits to historic art-cities or to small antique Tuscan villages.

The main villa is a two-storey house with a large panoramic terrace dating back to the 17th century. It has been entirely refurbished and transformed into an elegant and quiet country house. Its large halls, the 10 cosy bedrooms, the furniture, the paintings and the antiques it contains bestow the warm atmosphere of a private luxury home.

“La Foresteria” and “Gli Ulivi" are two independent units situated close to the main villa, which boasts 14 comfortable bedrooms, the majority of which having small gardens.

The restaurant takes advantage of our own organic produce including wild boar, “cinta senese” pork and virgin olive-oil constituting high-quality traditional Tuscan cuisine.
