The history of "Casa Bertini" says that it was built in the 12th Century, as a small fortified farm guarding the fertile valley and road to Pisa. In the 16th Century, it was transformed into a Villa and a Chapel was added. During the 19th Century, it was owned by a rich upper-middle class family who made changes and innovations to the property. Thanks to the skill of the head of the family, it was the first house in the area to have electricity and a running water system. After the Second World War, the last owners left the villa, which then went to ruin. In 1989, the building came into the possession of the current owner who carried out important restoration work, respecting the original architecture and decorations. It has been furnished in style with old furniture that produces an overall pleasant and comfortable atmosphere.
