Orentano works for families after a home with a pool in a quiet Tuscan village, about 35 minutes' drive from Pisa airport. Pools are common here, though check each listing, and homes sleep around five or six. The village has few sights of its own, so days out mean driving.
Orentano is a village of around 1,700 people, a frazione of Castelfranco di Sotto, about 32 km from Pisa and only 27 metres above sea level. It lies by the Cerbaie, a band of low hills between the old Bientina and Fucecchio marshes, where Etruscan and Roman finds have turned up. A permanent archaeological exhibition shows the remains of a Roman bridge and a medieval canoe. The village also holds the Carnevale dei Bambini, a children's carnival counted among Tuscany's oldest masked traditions. Our homes are in and around the village. Evenings are quiet and local.
About 16 km away in the lower Arno valley, it keeps its ancient Roman layout and has wooden Annunciation statues by Nino Pisano.
The most important natural park in the Cerbaie hills, on wooded slopes above the old marshland.
A town with a strong historical tradition of leather tanning, worth a stop on a day out.
Pisa airport is about 35 minutes away by car. There is no direct public transport: a train from Pisa Centrale to Pontedera-Casciana Terme and a bus on take around two hours. A car is the realistic choice.
A little. The permanent archaeological exhibition shows the remains of a Roman bridge and a medieval canoe, and the children's carnival, the Carnevale dei Bambini, is one of Tuscany's oldest masked traditions.
Most do, and many also have a garden and air conditioning, but check each listing, including whether the pool is private or shared. Homes sleep four to eight.
About 32 km. Pisa airport is around 35 minutes by car, while public transport via Pontedera takes about two hours with a change.
A band of low hills between the old marshes of Bientina and Fucecchio. Once mostly stone and maritime pine, they are slowly returning to oak, and the Montefalcone reserve protects part of them.
