Escape to one of four charming Tuscan villas
Immerse yourself in the desirable life of sipping espressos at sidewalk bistros, enjoying aperitifs as you look out over the landscape, and shopping in the open-air markets for fresh produce. The only things that can possibly make this amazing vacation any better are a private driver for the duration of your stay, a cooking class and dinner at your villa, as well as a wine tour – buon appetito!
After a day of exploring the hilly towns of Tuscany, all you’ll want to do is unwind in your own spacious villa.
Stay in Piccola Bramasole, which takes its name from the original Villa Bramasole from the novel and movie ‘Under the Tuscan Sun.’ Set just a few hundred meters away from the Villa, the owners of this rustic stone-covered little house have maintained many of its authentic original features without compromising modern comfort, allowing you an incredible Tuscan escape.
The old country house known as Villa Le Corchie dates back to the 15th century, and boasts panoramic views of the hills surrounding Cortona.
Or rest in style at the YPR Loft 21, a luxury apartment in Cortona
Relax and recharge in elegance at Villa Orlandicchio, where you can soak in the pool while admiring the breathtaking views of the valley.
All these villas are the ideal private getaway, immersing you in nature, yet still keeping you within a short distance of the vivacious Tuscan town life and medieval town walls of Cortona, and the beauties of ancient Etruscan History.
