Cortona is a charming medieval hilltown in Tuscany which is an important artistic and cultural centre. Within the walls of the town, it can sometimes seem as though time has stopped long ago and everywhere you turn, you will see historic architectural gems. However, some of the real highlights of the town and its surrounding area are its churches. The Church of Santa Maria Nuova, in particular, as a centralised square-plan Renaissance church, is a prime example of an important principle of Renaissance construction. Santa Maria Nuova was built by Giorgio Vasari in 1554 and is an example of one of that great architect’s later works. If you’re an architecture lover and have found a luxury villa in Cortona, be sure to stop by and check it out.

Guest Reviews for Cortona 190
Lucia 190.1
La maison est vraiment charmante et on s’y sent tout de suite à l’aise. Elle a l’avantage d'être à la fois très privée et en même temps ouverte sur l’extérieur avec une terrasse vraiment confortable. Nous avons été très bien accueillis par Martina, qui a fait en sorte de nous mettre à l’aise très rapidement. Elle nous a apporté régulièrement des tomates du jardin délicieuses. La piscine est très agréable, suffisamment éloignée des habitations pour ne pas être dérangés par les enfants qui s’y amusent. Peut-être le seul point noir, c’est que le train passe tout près. On l’entend bien mais finalement il ne nous a pas dérangé plus que ça. Merci pour tout!
[English translation courtesy of Easy Reserve] The house is really charming and you feel immediately at home. It has the advantage of being both very private and at the same time open to the outside with a really comfortable terrace. We were welcomed by Martina, who made us feel at ease very quickly. She regularly brought us delicious garden tomatoes. The pool is very nice, far enough away from the houses to not be disturbed by the children who have fun. Perhaps the only downside is that the train passes nearby. We hear it well but finally it did not bother us more than that. Thank you for everything!Would you recommend this property to a friend? Yes

Die Villa und die Umgebung sind sehr schön. Ein einziger Minuspunkt für die Villa gibt es, weil sie relativ dunkel ist und weil keine Klima-Anlage existiert. Es wurde sehr warm im Haus (am Ende 32 Grad) und keine Chance sie runter zu kühlen.
Sehr gut gefallen hat uns, dass hier Agrotourismus betrieben wird. Heißt, es werden sehr viele Lebensmittel sowie Wein angebaut und als Tasting (gemeinsames Abendessen) angeboten. Bio pur und das schmeckt man :-)
Die Gastgeber sind extrem freundlich und zuvorkommend und haben sich um alles gekümmert.
[English translation courtesy of Easy Reserve] The villa and the surroundings are very nice. There is a single minus for the villa, because it is relatively dark and because no air conditioning system exists. It was very warm in the house (in the end 32 degrees) and no chance to cool it down.
We really liked that here agritourism is operated. It means that a lot of food and wine are grown and offered as a tasting (common dinner). Pure organic and you can taste it :-)
The hosts are extremely friendly and accommodating and took care of everything.Would you recommend this property to a friend? Yes

We had a wonderful stay at Casa Lucia. Martina and her family were very welcoming. The location is very convenient for day trips throughout the heart of Tuscany. Supermarket is close by. I would recommend taking advantage of the meal cooked and served by Martina and her family. This meal was one of the highlights of our trip. The house is very clean and has every convenience you need for an enjoyable stay. We were sorry that the pool wasn't open yet, but with all the rain, we wouldn't have been able to enjoy it anyway.
