The splendid newly restored infinity pool with iacuzzi and 2 bathrooms make the holiday perfect for groups of friends and large families who can also enjoy a large kitchen with fireplace, dining rooms and convivial spaces in the gardens. Villa di Cerretino takes its name from the small wood of Cerri (dialectal form with which in ancient times the oak was indicated) in which it is immersed near Bonistallo. The unusual central courtyard scheme with typical elements of the fortifications (such as the circular corner turrets and the walls) and the strategic position from which the road between Florence and Pistoia dominates feeds the hypothesis that the structure was built on the remains of the fort of the Torrebecchi, of the Strozzi, conquered and destroyed in 1325 by the troops of Castruccio Castracani in an attempt to conquer Carmignano. The military architecture of the late fifteenth century is mixed with elements of rural construction and the noble villa through the various transformations undergone between the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. In the fifteenth century the complex belonged to the Bini family (various coats of arms remain on a tower and in the villa) and then passed to the Medici family to whom the fame of the villa is linked, which was chosen by Grand Duke Francesco I as the residence of Bianca Cappello, the Venetian noblewoman who was his lover, then second wife. The furnishings were studied and made to design in the 70s by Poltronova. The gardens were designed by Porcinai (one of the most important landscape architects of the twentieth century), while the exteriors were followed by Guido Morozzi who at the time was in charge of the Directorate of the Superintendence of Florence (Special Section for the execution of the works on the buildings monumental). The arrangement of the works and the distribution of the spaces speak a modern language capable of stimulating emotions and providing inspirations. In the Villa you can admire works by exponents of Italian Pop Art of the 60s including Valerio Adami, Mario Ceroli and the whole school of Pistoia (Barni, Buscioni and Ruffi).

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews

Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.

When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.

Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.

Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.
