Your charming apartment for four will be in the historical center of the spectacular town of Cortona, known across the world as the inspiration and setting for the book and movie Under the Tuscan Sun. Cortona is a beautiful hill town, founded in the Etruscan era, before the Romans, with evidence that the city existed as far back as seven centuries before Christ. With its medieval charm, Cortona dominates the enchanting landscape of the valley below, framed on the horizon with soft hills and the vast expanse of Lake Trasimeno.
The easy and relaxed vibe will capture your heart as you stroll past the countless restaurants, quaint boutiques, artisanal shops, and friendly cafes where you can enjoy an aperitivo while sitting in the main square watching people just like the Italians do. The town is strategically positioned between Florence, Rome, Siena, Assisi, and the wine regions of Montepulciano, Montalcino, and Chianti, making it the perfect base for exploring Tuscany!
