About The Experience

What a great holiday villa in Tuscany this is for a group of friends who love scenic walks and the ability to walk right into the town of Cortona! When you and your large group of family and friends want a firsthand look at Tuscany, try taking a leisurely stroll away from this villa through the nearby olive groves - simply stunning! And perhaps best of all, this self-catering accommodation is also only 500 meters from Cortona, meaning this hilltop town is just a pleasant walk away!

Location Description

The amazing city of Cortona, which also has all the necessities and services, such as banks, bars, post office, antiques, pharmacies, clothing, grocery stores, and restaurants, is only a 500 meter walk away (it is hilly). This city is an encounter with art, history, and culture. You'll rediscover Tuscany's past in Cortona, which has changed very little in the last 400 years or so. Sitting in the center of the triangle formed by Arezzo, Siena, and Perugia, as well as being near Lake Trasimeno and the Appenines, Cortona is both ideally located for day trips and a sparkling gem of the region. In Cortona there is no end to picturesque streets and amazing historic buildings. Tour frescoed churches from the 13th century; explore the original city walls; see and art exhibit in the 16th century fortress. You can also visit the local museums and libraries, tiptoe around ancient monasteries and tombs dating back to the second century B.C. Dine on the best Tuscan dishes as you look out on an historic palazzo or drive out to one of the villas dotting the countryside. As for shopping, you'll find local handicrafts, antiques, and of course local wines and olive oils that simply outdo anything you've ever tasted!
