Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Located just one mile from the hilltop town of Cortona, this Tuscan villa is made up of two apartments in one charming and traditional farmhouse. Both apartments have their own separate entrances, making this a great choice for large groups. Outside, the private pool is fenced and perfectly placed for stunning views, and children will love the expansive grounds. Animal lovers can bring their furry friends along, but it's important to note that a couple of dogs and even a friendly donkey live on the land, and the owner of the home lives nearby. Despite this though, you'll be granted full privacy during your stay.
