External Description

Villa Cerreto is located in a hilly position in the Chianti region, just 14 km from Siena.
Dating back to 1700, the property is the home of an ancient, noble Florentine family who founded a famous fashion house.
Immersed in the typical Chianti landscape between green vineyards and rolling hills, the villa is surrounded by a well-kept private garden with lawn, flowers and several terracing from which you can admire a stunning view of the Siena countryside.

Moreover, at guests' disposal an ancient pizza oven, a barbecue, and a private outdoor parking.
Near the villa but separate, there is also the staff quarters (who works inside the property), and the house of the keepers (with entrance from the solarium terrace, but without facing the villa, so the utmost privacy is guaranteed for guests).

Places to visit

Villa Cerreto is located in a hilly position inside the Chianti area, precisely in the village of Pievasciata, just 14 kilometers from the center of Siena, and only over an hour's drive from Florence.
Situated in the municipality of Castelnuovo Berardenga, Pievasciata is a small village home to the Chianti Sculpture Park, a permanent exhibition of contemporary installations and sculptures nestled into a magical forest of oaks and holm oaks. Also inside the park there is an lovely amphitheater offering visitors a rich program of concerts and cultural events in July and August.
The amazing area of Chianti is known worldwide for the prestigious wine to which it gives birth (the typical emblem of the Gallo Nero), and for its evocative sceneries and charming villages which are along the “Via Chiantigiana”, from Greve to Panzano, from Castellina to Radda.
It is also worth visiting the countryside of Siena: here you will find other medieval gems, like Monteriggioni, San Gimignano and San Galgano.
