Built on a hill, this stone town house is right outside the old city walls (dating from the 2nd century B.C.) of Historical Centre of Cortona, an old city founded by The Etruscans, the ancient civilization that built Rome. Cortona is conveniently located in a 1,15 hrs drive from Florence, 2 hrs from Rome and Pisa International Airports, 30 mins from Perugia (in Umbria) and Arezzo, 45 mins from Siena, 35 mins from Montepulciano, 1hr from Assisi (Umbria) e Montalcino (where the famous 'Brunello' wine comes from)...all the best sights of the famous Tuscan countryside, with yellow sunflower fields in the summer and multi colored trees in the spring!

Cortona is famous as the inspiration and setting for the book Under the Tuscan Sun, (that later became a movie) written by USA writer-novelist Francis Mayes. It also homes a branch of the Georgia University - USA, for artistic matters, since 1970.

I spent weeks researching towns in Tuscany, and scoured vrbo for places to stay. We got so lucky securing Vanna's place - as we learned later this listing is usually booked well in advance. We stayed for a full month and were perfectly accommodated in every way. Situated just outside the walls of Cortona, and just above Camuccia, this perfect flat is in the ideal location. It's newly and beautifully renovated, equipped with nice linens and a well-resourced kitchen. Plenty of parking, pin-drop quiet, dark for sleeping, but sunny during the day, wonderful mattresses and ideal water pressure. We ate all of our meals on the patio with an idyllic view. And Vanna is the perfect host who quickly became our friend! She is quick to respond, and met our every request. Her cooking class is phenomenal and she makes you feel like family. I will definitely return and would not consider staying anywhere else!

This home is cozy, a jewel, a perfect location with a beautiful veranda and offered the feeling of being right at home. It is well appointed and managed. Thank you, Vanna!

The property was just as advertised and all that we hoped for. Our private patio with a view was a delight for lazy afternoons or evenings, enjoying the Tuscan warmth and beautiful light and the privacy was perfect. Our hostess was extremely helpful and went above and beyond as we had a minor emergency and she insisted on helping every step of the way. An excellent location to visit several of the other surrounding towns.

This is a beautiful little apartment, perfectly situated at the base of historic center in Cortona. The apartment was very clean and included everything we needed to enjoy our stay (A/C too). Our host was extremely friendly and accommodating, and we highly recommend this property.

The property is top notch. Completely renovated only a year or so ago. It is perfect. Very beautiful and functional. Great view! Comfy bed. We ended up oversleeping every day! Vanna was an amazing host and wanted to make sure that we had everything we needed and really cared about us. (Side note, if you are considering Cortona versus other locations we were very impressed by the friendliness of the people and the very high quality of the local food). We will be back!

The apartment is exactly as advertised with great views across the valley and a 7 minute walk to Cortona's main square and restaurants. The apt is beautifully appointed with everything you need and was warm and comfortable. The terrace is great for morning coffee or evening wine overlooking the amazing valley. Mirko was great to deal with and the booking process was quick and easy. Vanna was incredibly helpful and even gave us some of the Easter cheese bread she baked! She answered all of our questions during the stay and recommended her favorite restaurants in Cortona. We felt welcome and cozy in their home away from home. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again!
