Tuscany-Eastern/Cortona-Arezzo Villa 12

If you want a wellness oriented vacation, don’t miss the opportunity to spend some quality time in the villa, a great property, furnished with understated elegance and charm. Both the interiors and the exterior spaces are conceived with the idea for a peaceful abode, enhanced by the surrounding breathtaking panoramic landscapes that regenerate and rejuvenate the soul.

Villa Cortona was recently and beautifully restored featuring a contemporary look and style. All rooms are very bright and airy thanks to their wide windows from where to admire, in blissful ecstasy, the beautiful and striking Tuscan countryside. The villa is set in one of the most requested locations: at walking distance to town. It is an independent three-story villa nestled in a peaceful spot, part of an expansive estate with breathtaking views of the Tuscan countryside. The historical town of Cortona is a few minutes walk from the villa (400 meters) and if you are looking to stroll to town and coming home for dinner on foot, do not look further. On the same estate there is an additional independent cottage (for 4 pax) with its own private swimming pool and garden, which can be rented together with the main villa (depending on availability). Each of these constructions has private grounds and completely respects the privacy of the guests.

Recommended Local Restaurants

In Cortona, a short walk

La Bucaccia-VIA GHIBELLINA 17, 52044 CORTONA Tel +390575606039 http://www.labucaccia.it Housed in an old 13th Century medieval stable of a Renaissance palazzo built on a Roman road (part of which can still be seen in the main dining room), Many regard this as Cortona's finest address. Cuisine is Tuscan and Cortonese – much meat and handmade pasta (chestnut ravioli!) – and the cheese course is superb, thanks to owner Romano Magi who ripens his own. Dedicated gourmets won't be able to resist the six pecorino types with fruit sauces, homemade salsas and honeys. Excellent wine list. Moderate prices

Osteria del Teatro-VIA MAFFEI 2, 52044 CORTONA Tel +390575630556 www.osteria-del-teatro.it A number of rooms with open fireplaces combine to create this trattoria's warm and lively atmosphere that is unmistakably reminiscent of a love for the theatre. And service is a performance in motion – waiters wield an oversized pepper grinder and attack blocks of locally produced chocolate with a butcher's knife. Nice wine list. Moderate prices.

Beerbone Artburger-Via Nazionale 55 Cortona 52044 Tel +39 0575 601790 www.facebook.com/cortonaburger The feisty burgers cooked up at this contemporary restaurant on Cortona's main pedestrian street are no ordinary burgers. Select your Tuscan meat – Chianina beef or cinta senese pork, smoked over applewood – and choose between lavish toppings: truffles with truffle cream, fried egg and lettuce perhaps, or pecorino cheese with homemade syrah mayonnaise. Craft beer completes the tasty ensemble. Inexpensive and a very good value.

Cortona Bistrot-Via Santa Margherita 13, 52044, Cortona Tel +39 0575 62957 Very good, informal, small restaurant serving Roman and Tuscan food. There are some outdoor tables aavailable in good weather. Everything is made fresh in house. The very hospitable owners claim they have no microwave and no refridgerator. Moderate pricing.
