Cortona Apartment Details

Excursions in the area: Our Country House is in a very advantageous location for daily excursions to various regional sites of interest ranging from artistic and cultural offerings to wine tasting and great culinary delights. An example of an excellent day trip would begin with a visit to Montepulciano, with its beautiful 14th century palaces and cantinas loaded with fine wines. On your way to S. Quirico d'Orcia, (the Vald'Orcia site has been declared Property of the Humanity) you could take an enchanted Journey through Pienza. Upon arrival in St. Quirico d'Orcia, you can rest and take in the wonderful atmosphere of the village church, built in the 9th century. Don't miss Bagnovignoni, only 3 miles from St. Quirico. It will surprise you with its glorious plaza, which used to be a large ancient spa. If you are getting tired of walking, you can relax in a traditional family restaurant in Montalcino, where you'll be able to taste a local red wine or a highly regarded Brunello. Don't miss these places, ciao!

Other Activities: super-light flight
