Casetta Di Petriolo, Cerreto Guidi, Florence and Chianti

Casetta di Petriolo is a lovingly designed holiday home with a beautiful garden, perfect for a couple or a small family. Set in a quiet and private location, it offers the ideal base for exploring this particularly charming part of Tuscany. With its cosy character and peaceful surroundings, it’s a place where you immediately feel at home.



Just a ten-minute walk away is the popular restaurant Osteria di Golpaja. The historic town of Cerreto Guidi, with over 1,200 years of history, is less than three kilometres away and can also be reached on foot via scenic fields and paths. The town offers small shops, restaurants and an impressive Medici villa, once a hunting lodge, open to visitors all year round. Two traditional events bring the town to life: “La Notte d'Isabella” in July, with parades, music, dance, and crafts from the Renaissance period, and the “Palio del Cerro”, held every year on the first Saturday in September.Nearby sights include Vinci, the birthplace of Leonardo da Vinci, and the picturesque hilltop town of San Miniato, famous for white truffle. Florence, Lucca, Pisa, and Siena are also within easy reach for day trips.

The cream-coloured house sits within a well-tended garden filled with roses and ancient olive trees, fully enclosed by a dense hedge for complete privacy. A shaded terrace beneath a pergola invites you to dine outdoors. The plunge pool is perfect for cooling off on hot days , but  can also be heated when needed.



Inside, traditional terracotta floors, wooden-beamed ceilings, and cream-coloured walls create a warm, inviting feel. Comfortable furnishings and charming details make the space instantly welcoming. A fireplace adds extra comfort on cooler days.
