About this property

Beautiful 16th Century farmhouse with large pool, located near Cortona,Tuscany

Welcome to Jasmina - our vacation rental, lovingly restored to retain its character but with a contemporary twist. Less than 15 minutes from Cortona, situated in the peaceful Tuscan countryside, the property adjoins our home, Villa Violina, a farmhouse of historic importance.

In a fabulous location for easily exploring Tuscany and Umbria, Jasmina also offers guests the opportunity to rest and enjoy a peaceful holiday by the large saline swimming pool set amongst acres of landscaped gardens.

Jasmina is a completely independent unit that is attached to our farmhouse. It provides a beautifully furnished accommodation where you will quickly feel relaxed and ready to enjoy your holiday. As the owners we are ordinarily onsite and are happy to offer help and advice during your stay, whilst always respecting guests privacy.

Stylishly decorated and furnished in shades of taupe and cream, the ground floor has a lovely triple aspect living room with fireplace, terracotta tiled floor and original chestnut beams. There is an LG LCD TV/DVD, Freeview and WiFi (20-30 Mbps). The kitchen has Italian marble worktops and ceramic double sink. Lovely antique table. Appliances include Bosch dishwasher and washing machine and a large Koning fridge/freezer.

Upstairs there is a large double aspect bedroom with queen sized four poster bed complete with cream voile drapes. Adjacent is its own separate bathroom featuring mosaic tiling and twin Italian marble basins. Additional twin bedroom with lovely wrought iron beds which can be made up as a double. There is an en-suite shower room.
Both bedrooms have stylish Daikin air-conditioning units to keep you cool during the hot summer months (metered and charged separately - if used overnight in both bedrooms the cost is approximately Euro 25 for one week).

To the front of Jasmina is a listed brick capana for al fresco dining with access to a Weber BBQ .

The Wi-fi is also available in the front and rear gardens.

Villa Violina is exclusively situated in 13 acres of private land consisting of large pine trees, 200 olive trees and 1 acre of private landscaped gardens with a 7 x 14 meter saline swimming pool. The pool is situated behind the house in the middle of the gardens and is open early May until late September. It is edged with travertine marble and surrounded by an antique brick patio. A large pergola provides shade and all outdoor furniture is of high quality.

Jasmina is ideally situated for visiting the wonderful regions of Tuscany and Umbria. Perhaps most importantly and the main reason we bought the house, is its proximity to Cortona, a less than 15 minutes drive away. It is an Etruscan town whose origins are older than Rome. Although small it is perfectly formed! Aside from its great architecture and historic importance the town is blessed with wonderful restaurants, gelateria's, coffee bars etc. The monasteries and churches are beautiful, the museums excellent and the festivals which take place throughout the year are great fun. Its close proximity means you can easily visit on a daily basis. Castiglione del Lago is also only 10 minutes away and offers a different experience with many restaurants and lake views.

For those seeking to explore further afield access to a major trunk road is an easy 5 minute drive. From there within 30-60 minutes are Montepulciano, Pienza, Arezzo, Perugia, Assisi, Siena and Orvietto to name a few.

Also of great convenience is the local railway station which is 5 minutes from the house. Here express trains can be boarded to Florence or Rome, enabling a day's sightseeing, whilst also giving access to Arezzo, Orvieto, Chiusi, Perugia and Assisi.

Jasmina is ideally located for many activities. We can advise on walks, running or cycling routes (local bike hire available including e-bike). At nearby Lake Trasimeno sailing lessons can be booked. Experienced? Yacht, motor-boat and kayak’s can be rented.

Villa Violina is on the wine route "La Strada del Vino", which links Cortona with Montepulciano. Wine tasting nearby can be arranged at La Braccesca (Antinori), Baldetti Avignonesi, Poliziano and many others.
