Tenuta di Camugliano
Pisa, Italy
Camugliano is one of the principal Tuscan country estates where everything is preserved with passion. The land is farmed organically, 3
holiday villas have been carefully restaured and a restaurant, the ‘Locanda di Camugliano’ is an ideal place to savour recipes with the
organic products of the countryside. Pisa, Lucca and Florence are less than an hour away!
History
Tradition attributes the foundation of the Villa to the Duke Alessandro de ’Medici after 1532 and it belongs to the Niccolini family since 1637 when Filippo Niccolini, a Florentine patrician, bought the Estate for 50,000 scudi.
He restored the entire farm by reclaiming land, increasing
crop-growing and vineyards; he began important works on the Villa engaging architects from the Florentine area and drawing inspiration from the setting of the Medici Villas of the 16th century
The Estate – Guided Tours
This vast estate is just waiting to be explored by its
guests and the proposed guided tours meander
between the secular park and the historic structures
surrounding the Villa.
Among the trails there are historical structures such as
an ice house and entries to underground tunnels to the
ancient wine cellars.
A museum featuring original farm implements, tools and
equipment is well worth a visit. It includes hot coal
heaters, which were placed under beds, small food
coolers and clothes washing systems.
