Casa Leonardo in the Tuscan countryside near Florence Prato and Pistoia

Completely renovated farmhouse with exposed stones and bricks, typical of the Tuscan countryside furnished with valuable furniture of about 85 square meters with a splendid view over the plain of Florence Prato and Pistoia. The property is spread over two floors and consists of a living area on the ground floor with a living room and kitchen with fireplace from which through a terrace and stairs to the rear garden. On the first floor there are two double bedrooms one of which with two single beds that can be joined together as needed and become double and two bathrooms one with a shower and the other with a Jacuzzi. In the basement, connected by a spiral staircase with the ground floor, there is a cellar dating back to the end of '800 with characteristic vaulted ceilings and stone walls. It is also furnished and comfortable during the summer as a cool place for dinners or a simple aperitif in relaxation. The property is accompanied by exclusive parking for two cars, and an exclusive rear garden of about 70 square meters. complete with gazebo with sitting area which can be accessed both from the kitchen and from the cellar. From all parts of the building and from all rooms you can enjoy an excellent view of the surrounding plains and the hills of Montalbano. 4-legged friends are welcome but we would prefer to be warned of their presence.
For an extra fee, it is possible to request an exclusive tourist guide available for the whole of Tuscany, as well as a private driver with his own vehicle, with access to all the areas excluded from traffic, in major cities.

Casa Leornardo was a wonderful place to call home for a few days. Our host Jari was extremely helpful and very easy to communicate with. An easy drive to Florence and other surrounding towns. If you love gelato you must visit Dolci Tentazioni in the town Piazza Risorgimento!

Small town memories
We just returned from a 6 night stay at this property and had a wonderful experience in this lovely, small town of Quarrata. The property was as described and Jari and Caterina met us at the property a little earlier than check in. They were pleasant and helpful and offered their assistance at any time we needed. Fortunately, we did not have to bother them at all! Please be advised you absolutely need a car to get anywhere in the Tuscany region, as this property is to the north of Florence . We were able to visit Pisa, Lucca, San Gimignano, Sienna and a beautiful beach town of Viareggio. Most were about an hour's drive away. There weren't too many wineries with tours nearby, but we did find one, on our last day, in Carmignano. What we loved most about our stay is that this is not a tourist town, and although we do not speak Italian, we met so many wonderful people who were willing to help us and made us feel very at home. Jari arranged a chef to cook for us the first night and the food was wonderful, with enough leftovers to eat the next night. Although the chef did not speak English, he gave us some restaurants to visit in the area. Jari also arranged for his neighbor, who is a licensed tour guide, to show us around Florence and we made a lifelong friend! We stayed here the last 6 nights of a 17 day trip to Italy and it was a perfect place to relax and unwind after all our previous touring.

Best place to stay in Tuscany
Jari was simply amazing. He was so helpful with giving us travel advise and making us feel completely welcome in Italy. The house was absolutely wonderful and was more than enough space for a small family. Super clean and modern while still giving you the Tuscany feel. I would surely stay there again and recommend this house to everyone.

Very Nice Home Away from Home!
We found the home exactly as described and was very clean and inviting. The space was perfect for two couples. Jari is very accessible, corresponds well and pleasant to work with. We appreciated the air conditioning in the master bedroom as the weather was extremely hot. Also, the water pressure in the shower was excellent. With the window open, the second bedroom offered a fan for cross ventilation. The washer and dryer came in handy as our luggage did not arrive with us. The kitchen was furnished with a "moka" for coffee in the morning, as well as utensils, dishes, dishwasher, etc. I can highly recommend staying in Jari e Catalina' vacation home and would contact them again if ever in the area.

Beautiful views, central location and comfortable accommodations
My husband and I've spent a little over a week in Quarrata at the Venturi's beautiful "Leonardo house". We couldn't believe the fantastic views, both from the bedroom facing West (?) Or from the back yard East (?). We loved the cozy kitchen and French doors to the garden. The wine cellar was a fun place to sip wine and cool down. The central location is wonderful for day trips to do many Tuscan towns; Pistoia, Pisa, Lucca, Sienna and winery in the hill towns. What a blast. We'd stay again in a heartbeat

Small house in Quarrata
We stayed here for a week in early May 2019. The hosts are delightful. They live nearby and were extraordinarily prompt in answering any questions and providing assistance. The house is one of several attached houses in a row. The neighbor is friendly, too. It has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, a very nice feature. It is really clean and comfortable. It has good furnishings and a complete kitchen. We ate “in” for all breakfast and most dinners. It is convenient for day trips around the Tuscany region and quite close to Florence. The pictures and descriptions on the website are accurate and the outside views are stunning. The hosts speak adequate English, and since we don’t speak Italian we both used Google Translate with good success. We recommend this place very highly.

Perfect
Theres is only one word to describe our 8 days stay at Casa Leonardo: Perfect. The house is impecable, clean, cosy , and provides enough space for 4 persons. (we are couple with 2 children). The garden offers a breathtaking view over the Toscana. Jari is a perfect host, gives you full briefing about al the amenities of the house, provides recomendations for nice places to eat and is always pending for every need you might have. Jari is littaraly 5 minutes away. Not forget the location of Quarrata, within 90 minutes drivem you can visit the most importante attractions of the Toscana. Highly recomendable.
