| Beautiful area with many good restarants and some excellent ones as well as wonderful local wines and just far enough off the “main” tourist track to avoid the log jam of tourist coaches at some of the other hillside towns. To this point in time Cortona has managed to retain a certain local feel, despite the fact that it remains a popular, if not too crowded tourist destination. |

| Staying at Il Calcinaio was a definite highlight of our trip to Italy. Our family of five, with three young children, was very comfortable here and the location was perfect for exploring Tuscany. The house has been remodeled to a very high standard and the yard, view, olive trees, church, and town of Cortona made for a perfect setting. Many thanks-- |

| Calcinaio has been beautifully and artfully restored and we had a very comfortable stay. Home-made jam, a bottle of wine and a magnificent bowl of tomatoes awaited us on arrival. There is a little traffic noise and the driveways take a bit of manouvering but the quality of the property overrides all of this. Turn the fountain on and relax out by the pool with a good drink! |

| In general, this is a fabulous central location for the region and a lovely villa. The house, pool and garden were delightful, well stocked and comfortable. The air conditioning units in the bedrooms are a huge advantage in the summer months. |
