Beautiful and spacious countryhouse/ amazing swimming pool
Great property with beautiful views on Cortona. The owners were very kind and very responsive. The swimming pool is very large and our kids spent an enourmous amount of time there. The kitchen is well equipped, bedrooms are spacious and well decorated with aircon much appreciated in summer. We had some issues with water pressure in one of the houses, but the owners were about to change the boiler and fix the issue. Highly recommended for two/three families.
The propoety was perfect for a large group particulary with two families as there were two houses. The swimming pool is large and great for relaxing. The view on Cortona is stunning.
Die toskanische Villa liegt in einer zauberhaften Region. Der Blick auf Cortona ist wunderschön. Die Zimmer sind geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Es gibt mehrere schöne SitzplĂ€tze drauĂen und drinnen und einen grandiosen Pool. Das groĂe, eingezĂ€unte GrundstĂŒck bietet die IntimitĂ€t und GroĂzĂŒgigkeit, die man sich fĂŒr einen erholsamen Urlaub wĂŒnscht.
Very nice rustic remodeled farmhouse built in the 1500âs great owners close to old Cortona
Very nice house well appointed updated air conditioning in every room nice pool big yard for kids very nice place to stay for a family vacation. Everyone had their own bed. We had 12 in our group. We stayed a month and it was fantastic.
This house and adjacent apartment was perfect for a larger group. The rooms are comfortable and well equipped. The property was lovely and has a spectacular pool. A few things to note. The house name is not a location on a map and if you use an app like Google then you must use the name on the wall outside the property. The hot water takes a very long time to get to the upper floor shower and itâs almost impossible to fill a hot bath. Thatâs to be expected in a house of this age and itâs well worth that little inconvenience.
wir hatten einen wunderschönen Urlaub und haben uns trotz extremer Hitze sehr gut erholt, da das Haus mit AV gut gekĂŒhlt war und es im Garten und am Pool ( der Bereich ist grossartig angelegt!!!) immer genĂŒgend SchattenplĂ€tze gab.
Firstly, the property was absolutely perfect. It was big, all air conditioned (when itâs so hot outside it needs to be) and really felt like a home from home. All the bedrooms are big and the shutters make it super dark at nighttime for sensitive sleepers. It had everything that we needed and more, with lots of different areas to sit and relax. The pool was beautiful, larger than I was expecting and a great infinity effect as you look over at Cortona.
The location was great. Close enough to Cortona and shops etc to feel connected, but not too close so that you still felt lovely peace and quiet of being in the countryside. Lots of walks to go on from the house and lots of other towns to visit in the area. We loved it.
And finally Stefania and Luigi were fantastic hosts. No fuss or bother at all, and they were always available to help. They couldnât have done more for us and their friendliness was great!
Would definitely return, thank you!
We are a family of 5 that rented this house for 9 days. Everything from arrival to check out worked very well. This house has a secluded swimming pool area, functional kitchen and a dining area inside and outside. Air condition is also installed in every room, which is almost a must have during the summer months. However as in most homes not everything will be 100% new or perfect, but since the total experience was good this did not affect the stay in any negative way. The owner is quick to respond and takes action if needed. We enjoyed every day in this fantastic place. We would for sure return if we get the chance.
My family of four (11 and 14 year old girls) had the best four nights at this villa. The house itself was so charming and well stocked, the grounds beautiful and well maintained, and the pool and welcome retreat each day after exploring the surrounding towns. We didnât even touch the extra apartment with two additional bedrooms! Highly recommend!
Wundervolle Villa, KOMPLETT ausgestattet, herrliches Anwesen mit OlivenbĂ€umen, Weinreben, Blumen und Pflanzenpracht, sehr groĂzĂŒgiger Pool, Pizzaofen, Barbecues und nicht zuletzt groĂartige Gastgeber Stefania & Luigi
We stayed at this villa for a month. We had our family of 9 people here for 10 days. The layout with 2 separate apartments was perfect for our group. We had great weather during our stay and so we used the pool (unheated) frequently. The kitchen has all the utensils you will need for cooking, and some spices too. The owners were very responsive to any issues that came up. This is a rustic typical Tuscan villa. It could use additional comfortable seating inside, and it would be great if there was a smart TV in case you want a night in to watch a movie. Fabulous location! Wonderful view of Cortona. You definitely need a car if you are staying here. So much to do and see in the area.
Where to even begin? We loved everything about our stay. Stefania was wonderful, and responsive to our many questions before we even arrived. Upon arrival, it felt like a dream. The Villa is beautiful, private, and expansive. The property is huge, with lots of olive trees, fig trees, and places for the kids to play and explore. And not to mention the stunning pool, which overlooks the most incredible views of Cortona. We were pleased to find a ping pong table, and just absolutely loved the pool (especially in the August heat!).
The Villa is only a few minutes from Cortona by car, and a few minutes drive to Coop for groceries. The Villa itself has everything youâd need for a comfortable stay and quickly felt like home. The kitchen is well-equipped, the beds are comfortable, the showers have great water pressure, and there are plenty of towels. And Stefania set us up with wonderful chefs to come and cook for us a few daysâand they even did a cooking class for the kids.
The apartment was a huge plus for us as well, giving our parents a place to stay and plenty of privacy with their own bedroom and kitchen.
Grateful to have found such a wonderful Villa. It truly felt surreal. The perfect combination of rustic Tuscany countryside with the modern amenities to have a comfortable, relaxing stay where you can disconnect and unwind. Would recommend to anyone. Thank you, Stefania!
We had a delightful seven nights day at the end of July 2023. There were two families which worked out perfectly with the two sleeping arrangements. There is the main villa and the Annex (one double and a twin room). The whole villa is prepared to a very high standard. This includes copious amounts of towels and accessories that you will need during your stay. There kitchen was extremely well stocked and had enough cutlery and plates for everyone and more!
The COOP was a 5 min drive away and Cortona a 10 min drive. Unfortunately nothing was walkable.
The hosts were extremely contactable and left a wonderful surprise for us one breakfast-yummy pastries.
The pool was huge and so immaculately clean, the kids and adults, a like, spend the majority of the time in there.
We went to Rome for a day trip and Luigi gave us detailed instructions for the train trip and where to go.
Would definitely recommend!
This property is absolutely wonderful. The villa is charming and spacious and the views of Cortona are beautiful. Our hosts were very helpful and gracious. Lifetime memories made here!
We spent two weeks at Villa stefania with 4 adults and 6 kids ages 11 and under, and it was magical. The villa is located just below the town of Cortona, about a 10 minute drive but very accessible to grocery shopping and we went into Cortona about once a day. The pool was lovely with an amazing view of Cortona up on the hillside. The bedrooms were all beautifully furnished and the house has the lovely tuscan character you would hope for. The house is separated into two separate apartments. Our children stayed in the lower apartment and the adults stayed in the upper with the two smallest children. Both apartments have living spaces, laundry, and kitchens. The property is fully fenced and gated and felt very safe. The house was fully equipped with everything you would need and had a variety of dishes, pots and pans, and even spices to use. Stefania and Luigi were both very responsive before we arrived, when we checked in, and also when we had questions or any small issues at the house they responded immediately. Stefania also arranged for a cook to come the evening of our arrival and for two babysitters to watched the children while we went to dinner in Cortona. They were lovely and the kids really enjoyed them. The home was very comfortable. Two of the adults were working remotely and the internet worked fine for them. Would like to thank Stefania and Luigi for such a wonderful time. They are lovely people!
Our family of six adults had a wonderful time in this beautiful, spacious Tuscan farmhouse filled with character and charm. We spent our days visiting local hill towns (including Cortona, Montepulciano and Assisi) and then enjoyed relaxing at the pool in the afternoon. The property includes olive groves, a small vineyard and a large pool with spectacular views of Cortona. We cooked dinner together several nights in the well appointed kitchen using delicious local ingredients. We felt the serenity of being in the Tuscan countryside (including hearing the church bells and animals), yet it was an easy 10 minute drive to Cortona and the local grocery store.
Stefania and Luigi were very responsive to all our requests and were excellent hosts.
We would highly recommend this property!
Our stay was beyond belief even though the pool was unheated and we didnt manage to get alot of use out of it. The views were spectacular, there is a ton of room for group dinners inside and out, and separate but attached quarters for another family or friends.
Villa Stefania Ăš una proprietĂ curata nei particolari, sia per quanto riguarda la zona esterno del parco e della piscina che per l'interno della casa molto accogliente, arredata con gusto e con un'ottima sistemazione degli spazi.
Abbiamo soggiornato in 11 affittando l'intera Villa e tutti abbiamo potuto godere del tempo in compagnia ma anche della nostra privacy.
Cucina provvista di tutto il necessario e perfettamente funzionante.
Aria condizionata in tutti gli ambienti.
Accoglienza puntuale e gentile, massima disponibilitĂ per qualsiasi richiesta.
Abbiamo avuto il piacere di conoscere la gentilissima proprietaria, Stefania, che Ăš passata a farci un saluto.
Dopo 10 giorni Ăš stata dura lasciare il posto perchĂš ci siamo sentiti come a casa.
Super consigliato!
Wir waren zu 10. unterwegs und hatten wunderschöne 10 Tage in dieser tollen Unterkunft.
Leider wurden wir an manchen Tagen unangekĂŒndigt vom Vermieter bzw. Angestellten ĂŒberrascht.
Insgesamt war es ein sehr erholsamer schöner Urlaub.
Man sollte sich jedoch eher auf Umbrien als auf klassische toskanische Umgebung einstellen.
