Lovely Tuscan stay
Just on the slope nestled between Cortona city and the Calcinaio church, the location was perfect for us. We enjoyed the serenity of no one immediately around us while only being a very short drive from the city walls. (Admittedly, we could have walked, but driving was easier!) Taking day trips to various Tuscan cities and sights was wonderfully served by the central location.

The perfect Tuscan cottage
We were 100% satisfied with this property. It is charming and well maintained, with a great lawn and small pool to cool off in. The driveway is a bit rustic, but the parking is easy and behind a security gate. The views of the adjacent Renaissance church and the Valdichiana are amazing. The hilltop town of Cortona is 5min away and full of good restaurants, shopping, and an interesting Etruscan museum. There is a full service Conad grocery store in the town of Camucia, 5min down the hill. Florence, Siena, and Montepulcianco are easy day trips.The owner’s son, Enrico, met us at the house to check us in and spoke good English. Overall we were completely satisfied.

A little noisy as close to the road. Close all shutters and it is fine. We had a problem with dogs barking all night. Got better towards the end of the week. No internet at all but on holiday so ok. Stteep walk to town but found escalator which helped . Can drive to escalator park car free so easy. C and c carroll August 2018

Great time was had by all!
3 Couples from Florida stayed for 6 nights. The villa was more rustic than I expected but it was fun to live as Cortonians... Enrico, one of the owners and caretakers was great. He helped us out several times. The seating areas are not the roomyish but it worked. My husband and I slept in 2 different little rooms downstairs but since one of us snores it worked well. The view and location are fabulous. Easy to visit many other towns. You need a car, no doubt. Sitting outside in the evening was great. Only the 2 rooms upstairs are air conditioned. This time of the year, early May, the downstairs was cool. I think it is pushing it for 3 couples but we are all good friends and it worked! Thank you Enrico! We had a wonderful time!

Beautiful Stone House Overlooking the Val de Chiana and the Chiesa Santa Maria della Grazia
We spent a winter week in this nicely renovated stone farm house on the hill side below Cortona. The house is in a unique and beautiful setting on a terrace overlooking the Val di Chiana. It has a good size well-equipped kitchen with a dining area and its own fireplace. There are two small living/dining areas adjacent to the kitchen. One living area with a second fireplace, nice to have in the winter. The large garden terrace includes a small spa/pool (shut down in the winter). The second floor has two good size bedrooms, with some nice antiques, and the second bathroom. The ground floor also has a very small bedroom and a full bathroom. The original restoration of the house was obviously carefully thought out and well constructed. The arrival is at the owners' family home at the bottom of the hill, and the arrival and check-in went very smoothly. Enrico was friendly, helpful and had any information you may need for your visit to the area. We had a couple of small issues with the house the first day, and Enrico responded immediately and easily remedied everything. Other than the house itself, the views over the Val di Chiana and immediately over the Chiesa Santa Maria della Grazie are spectacular. Wonderful to be outside and just enjoy the views and sunsets.

Wonderful! Beautiful villa, great communication with owner, a Tuscan dream
I can't rave enough about this villa! It is exactly what we were looking for- set in the Tuscan hills with access to the charming town of Cortona (which, incidentally, has a 1 star Michelin restaurant, 2 Bib gourmands, and a few other Michelin guide restaurants...a surprising number of quality places for such a small town!). The villa is spacious, the man who met us was VERY helpful, it's quiet at night, the lawn is much bigger than it looks from the pictures and the bathrooms were surprisingly easy to use for European bathrooms! One note- it is fairly difficult to walk into Cortona from the villa. It's do-able but, you have to cross or walk down fairly busy roads. That said, it's only a 3-4 minute drive into town. And, this villa is so great, I didn't even care that I couldn't walk to town!

Fanstatic...
The property owner could not have been more gracious. The house and view of the church and the Valdichiana was beautiful. This place is a jewel in Tuscany.

Good location for Cortona, Camucia, Castilion di Lago, Pergo.
Lotsa of room and hot water. Nice view. Enrico the manager of the property very helpful and responded quickly to our needs. Close to Strata so a lot of traffic noise during the day. Like any villa in the country ants, spiders, centipedes and scorpions are present but with regular sweeping and mopping of floors along with spray/vapour plug ins they can be kept at a minimum. Keep track of your electrical usage by reading meter every couple days as it can get very expensive ...up to €18/day. Would stay there again. Patrick and Laurie

Nice but too expensive
Nice house and a fantastic garden. Cortona is a great place. The house wasn't very clean and the Air-Con is available but doesn't really cool the bed rooms upstairs on hot summer days. It's too expensive for what it is.

Settembre al Calcinaio
Soggiorno piacevole, affaccio eccezionale (meglio che nelle foto!), prato e piccola piscina con idromassaggio che fanno godere molto relax, abitazione dal fascino d'altri tempi ma attrezzata agli attuali, wi-fi e frigo così così, ma saranno migliorati, attenta e gentile collaborazione da parte dei proprietari. Certamente da consigliare.
