Villa Le Panteraie gets its name from the hill on which it is perched and is 300 mt above sea level. It looks down on the seductive scenery which it has before it, the green hills of the Valdinievole which crown the entire center of Montecatini, limited only by the Pisa and Livorno plain, and the towering profile of the antique medieval Montecatini Alto with its narrow streets and castles, which act as sentinels over the magnificent panorama.
The villa is in a key position for visiting the famous spa establishments of Montecatini,(visited in the past by Verdi, Puccini and many other famous names).
