Spent 5 nights at Petrolo in House Vigna with 9 of my closest friends/family for a 40th birthday girls trip. We had the most magical time and I wish I could do it again every year! Working with Marco to plan our stay was wonderful and he helped to ensure we had everything we needed. I highly recommend requesting private chefs, Francesca & Laura. They truly made our experience at Petrolo magic. From the beautiful birthday dinner on the day we arrived, to breakfasts and bagged lunches every day. We had a guest with Celiac and they went ABOVE AND BEYOND to ensure that she was able to eat all of the amazing foods in Italy while still being gluten free. And if you can, book the cooking class! I really cannot say enough about Francesca and Laura and the time we had with them in that little house making pasta. Francesca and Marco also were of great help in organizing private transfers to local wineries, Florence and FCO airport.
If you are looking for a quiet, beautiful place to stay in Tuscany, stay here. The wine from Petrolo is wonderful, the views, the grounds, and even the little town within walking distance are all magical. There is also a pool that we were able to use even though it was the last week of September because we had an unseasonably warm fall. I hope I am lucky enough to go back again someday.

In September 2022, I was lucky enough to celebrate my wedding at Villa Petrolo. I cannot say enough great things about this villa, Marco, Laura and Team.
Villa: The location, views, accommodations and facilities are 10/10. The staff are amazing at always keeping the space clean and beautiful without interfering with any festivities. We opted to have breakfast every morning and what a great decision that was. Laura and her team baked us fresh croissants everyday, there was a different type of cake everyday (that she kindly left out for us to have tea/coffee in the afternoons) and an amazing spread of ham, cheeses, eggs, salads etc. We also asked Laura to cater some dinners for us (one day even asking pretty late in the day and she was kind enough to help us). They set up tables for us in different locations of the villa so we could enjoy all the beautiful views that the villa had to offer. Depending on the type of dinner we were looking for they either had a beautiful Buffett for us or they served us at long beautiful tables. There is a beautiful pool deck with loungers that we spent a few days just enjoying as well as a tennis court. We had 33 guests in Petrolo main house and 10 in Vigna (the other villa on the property) and every guest gushed about the week we spent there being the best holiday they have ever had.
Wedding: Marco was amazing with putting us in touch with a Wedding Planner (Pia - from Olive in Tuscany) and I could not recommend Pia more. Coming from England I wasn't sure about needing a wedding planner or not but Pia helped me with EVERY detail of EVERY day (7 full days) at Petrolo. She helped with transportation of our guests to the villa, food and drinks, tours each day, wine tastings and most importantly every detail of the most beautiful wedding celebration in the gardens of Petrolo. If you are considering Petrolo for your wedding in Tuscany - look no further. We had 76 guests which is quite large for a destination wedding and it was incredible. The bridal suite (where my husband and I stayed all week) has a gorgeous big balcony that looks over the rolling hills of Tuscany.
We thank Petrolo and team for the most amazing week of our lives. It was a dream that I wish we could relive everyday.

We rented Villa Petrolo for our wedding in May of 2022, and we could not have chosen a more perfect location. Not only was the Villa and the rest of the property absolutely stunning, but Marco, Laura and Francesca and the rest of the staff were amazing. They were so wonderful the entire weekend and made sure that us and our 30 guests were well taken care of. Every meal that we had them organize and cook for us (breakfasts, lunches, pizza party, rehearsal dinner, wedding dinner) was so delicious (some of the best food we had in Italy!!) and the presentation was always perfect. They were also so helpful on the day of the wedding moving furniture and helping to coordinate with the vendors. Our entire wedding weekend turned out perfectly and we truly couldn't have done it without their help. Petrolo will forever be such a special place to us and we can't wait to return.

The property is wonderful, it was grape harvesting time so the area was a hive of activity but there is still enormous peace in the farmhouse. The views are fabulous, the pool is excellent and the service was quick and done with style and good sense. Sunrise and sunset magnificent, we saw a wild boar on he grounds, and the house itself has everything you could need. Wifi sturdy enough, showers strong and hot, terraces perfect. We had a meal cooked for us by the property's chefs and it was fabulous, strongly recommended.

Our stay at Petrolo was enchanting. We also rented the smaller Boggina and Costa Villas on the property to easily handle 45 members of our party. The rooms are clean, plenty of bathrooms, lots of sitting areas both inside and on the grounds of the Villa, beautiful views, great clean swimming pools, tennis courts, plenty of hiking trails on the property. It was a perfect venue for our family retreat. And you are on a working winery which has some excellent and top rated wines. Marco, was awesome taking care of our every need, organizing catered dinners and breakfasts. We would return in a nanosecond.

Petrolo is a large and rambling place, a little run-down and not in the ‘fashionable’ part of Chianti. It is quite far from both Florence and Sienna. The pool area isn’t that great, the tennis court badly needs resurfacing.
But we have been back four times now and we’ll be back next year. For some reason it is a place where 25 people can be really relaxed and happy. It works for all ages. It works for all personality types. It just works.
Really this is a house about the team. At no point (and we had 16 children aged 8-18) were they anything other than smiling, helpful and plain lovely. The food is fantastic thanks to Graziella and Laura. Nothing is difficult for Marco, the estate manager - you want eBikes? No problem. You would like a tennis coach? We will organise. Shopping? Of course...
Anyway if you are a large party, come here...

The villa was perfect for 10 people, including 2 children. Marco and Mitilda were excellent and helped us make reservations, a wine tasting experience, located Francesca for cooking classes, and a tour of Petrolo tower. The villa is located about an hour from any of the main Tuscan cities and Bucine's train station had trains that could take you anywhere you wanted to go. Our overall experience at Petrolo was excellent and we would go back in a heartbeat!

Villa Petrolo is a magical place to spend a holiday with family and friends. The house is a Tuscan dream and the team at Petrolo helpful and welcoming. We loved the tennis court, pool and grounds. Day trips to Florence from a nearby train station and a 40 minute drive for a day in Sienna makes for a full week although it is hard to tear yourself away from the Villa. An introduction to the wines of Petrolo and a history of the Villa was organised by Marco and I highly recommend Francesca who made the most amazing meals for us on our celebration evenings. The walk up through the woods to the watch tower on the hill was rewarded with a spectacular 360 degree view across the surrounding countryside. A very memorable trip.

Celebrated our daughter's wedding at Petrolo. We could not have hoped for a more lovely venue, professional staff and beautiful accommodations. From the moment we checked in to the time we left, Marco and his staff made us feel at home. The staff took amazing care of all of us. The main villa was amazing as was the smaller villa just down the hill from the main villa. Everything about our experience was wonderful. Special shout out to Lara for her wonderful personality and assistance throughout the week. Kudos to Marco for opening the Tower on an off day so we could experience the views of the valley from above. We would recommend Petrolo to anyone. We are eternally grateful for making our daughter's wedding the dream she imagined.

The really delightful team made us incredibly welcome. We stayed in Villa Costi, the highest up the hill, with stunning views of the snow-capped mountains on the other side of the Val d'Arno. Behind the house is a hillside and forest filled with walking and mountain bike trails, with the ancient Torre de Galatrona perched at the very top. I really hope to back soon.

Ciao Cinthia85,
Villa Petrolo si raggiunge dall' Autistrada A1 seguendo le indicazioni per Bucine e da Bucine per Mercatale Valdarno. appena prima del paese di Mercatale ci sono i cartelli per Petrolo. Siamo sotto la Torre di Galatrona. Costeggiate il cimitero di Mercatale, le nostre vigne e oliveti e raggiungete le cantine di Petrolo, poco più avanti tovate sulla sx il cancello per la Villa di Petrolo, accanto alla villa abbiamo gli uffici aziendali.
E' altamente consigliata una vettura, siamo in mezzo alla campagna e i bus pubblici sono pochi mentre muoversi in taxi, date le distanza intorno a noi, non sono sempre convenienti.
