Our family of four loved this rustic stone house. It was the perfect location to have as a home base for our Tuscan town hopping. It felt like home away from home. We wish we could have stayed longer. We love the quiet location and pool. We also enjoyed the provided olive oil soap. Our host was very accommodating and gave many suggestions for activities around the area.

Everything was great, and the host was helpful and very personable. A perfect location to see Cortona, Florence and Sienna. Fairly close to great wineries as well!

We chose this property to experience an iconic Tuscan home, and it delivered! Rustic is an understatement, the house is very old, but it was charming, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The pool was lovely, as were the views, and we loved the local dining, grocery store, and the village of Cortona. Also I should mention how quiet and private it is. Lots of stairs (it's three levels), so keep that in mind when booking!

The setting is lovely and the pool and the pool area are fantastic. The house is nice and is well-equipped in terms of crockery, cutlery and saucepans.The furnishings are a bit basic - it could do with proper armchairs or sofas (there is just a fold out bed and a canvas chair). The bedroom on the top floor is at the top of an open staircase. The nearest shop - which has everything you need - is a 5 minute drive and there is a restaurant which you can easily walk to in about 20 minutes. My children strongly recommend the gelateria in the Via Nazionale in Cortona - a short way up on the right as you walk up from the Piazza Garibaldi. The owner, who is very pleasant and helpful, wanted us to pay in cash but didn't tell us until the day before we left. We had a fantastic holiday - I would recommend this property for the pool, the setting and the terrace.
