About the host

Hosted by Laura Protti

Host profile image
The Protti family acquired the property in 1996. At the time the hamlet was unrestored and the family started a renovation project that took several years to complete. Mrs Protti was originally from Cortona and, while she spent several decades in Milan for work reasons, she always desired to go back to her birth town upon retirement.

Why they chose this property

The hamlet sits on the panoramic hill of Polvano and enjoys a breathtaking view of the surrounding Valley. It is an idyllic location with a magic atmosphere.
