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 Appartamento Marcella
The apartment was very good and the garden and pool fantastic. The owner, who lived on the lower floor, was very friendly and tried to help in any way possible. The biggest problem was that she spoke no English at all so all communication was done via hand signals or google translate. This is not optimal as you cannot ask simple questions and she cannot tell you important things like how to handle trash or how things work. I would recommend having all the practical things in writing in English when you don´t speak the language and are expecting non Italian speakers.
The area was quiet and nice. Cortona was fantastic. Couple of hours drive to Firenze and Pisa if you are up for that.
All in all the experience was very goodWould you recommend this property to a friend? Yes
