Italian country villa rentals in Tuscany, close to Cortona - Villa La Cortonese
PRIVATE VILLA RENTALS IN ITALY
Villa La Cortonese is an aristocratic villa just outside Cortona in eastern
Tuscany. Surrounded by olive groves and chestnut woods, it looks out over the
massive Valdichiana and the foothills of the Apennine Alps. The area combines
great natural beauty (Lake Trasimeno is a short drive away) with a wealth of
historical remains and artifacts - Etruscan, Roman and mediaeval. Cortona's
ancient walls and winding streets have resisted the ravages of modern development,
and the town has several excellent restaurants.
La Cortonese is situated in the silence of the hills (you are just a short distance
from the narrow streets of Cortona, paved with history), where the dense woods
of the mountains slope downward toward extensive olive groves dotted with pine
trees and cypress trees. The main villa offers accommodation for six guests,
and has two annexes – La Corte 1 and La Corte 2 - which sleep another two people
each.
La Cortonese is a traditional Tuscan home, with the rich, warm colours of terra
cotta and chestnut beams lending a timeless elegance. The rooms are spacious
and light, and furniture and furnishings have been carefully selected to emphasise
the grandeur of the building.
The grounds are well tended and there is a swimming pool - this is a truly perfect
spot for a relaxing, country holiday in Tuscany.
