Il Castello with private pool

The Villa is set in the greens of the Tuscan countryside, midst olives and cypress trees and just 4 km from Cortona. Set on the slopes of the hill, the big country house has a great view of Cortona and of the Chiana valley. The position is strategic, just 5 minutes away from Cortona but far from main roads and noise. The villa was an old watch tower, dating back to the 13th century, later becoming a monastery and then finally a home.

The Villa is surrounded by a big park of holm trees and is fenced to assure our guests the most privacy and relax. The country house has an automatic gate. It occupies a surface of more than 300 sqm on three floors and divided into a main building and two outbuildings.

There is a lot of room to explore in the spacious, green gardens and enjoy hanging out by the pool, with the Tuscan landscape as the backdrop.
