House and Contents

This house is our Italian family home. It has been furnished by us over the last 3/4 years and we think we have given the house a homely feel. We have striven to restore the house sympathetically, in the Tuscan manner whilst at the same time giving it 21st Century facilities. Most of the house contents are hand made to the highest quality by local Tuscan artisans. You will find the essentials such as olive oil, balsamic vinegar, sugar, salt pepper etc. etc. in the kitchen. Please feel free to use these items and if you run out just replace what you have used so that the next family to use the house can avail of the facilities.

Private pool

The pool sits on the edge of a terrace overlooking the Tuscan hills. The area whilst being close to the house is very private and there is a shaded pergola near it where you and your party can enjoy evening drinks watching the sun set. This area is also a wonderful vantage point to watch the sun rise in the morning. You will be in no doubt as to the reason why so many Renaissance painters chose this area to be inspired by the colours. The pool itself is cleaned twice weekly to ensure the correct levels etc.

There is a local website for Cortona and surrounding areas, which gives lots of useful information on events occurring during the year.
