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 La Quiete nel Vigneto
Afgelopen week met 4 personen in het huis "La Quiete Nel Vigneto" verbleven. We werden hartelijk ontvangen door de eigenaresse die na 2 dagen nog even terugkwam om te controleren of alles naar wens was. Huis is (op de keuken na) ruim en alle kamers voorzien van airco wat echt nodig was. Tuin is erg groot en je hebt totale privacy, zelfs het zwembad was groter dan we hadden verwacht. Het gedeelte van het zwembad is omheind en dmv een hekje te bereiken, ideaal als je kinderen of een hond hebt en niet wil dat ze zelf gaan zwemmen. Reistijd naar Cortona of het Trasimeno meer is 15 min, goede uitvalsbasis dus! Al met al een top vakantie gehad, het huis is zeker de moeite waard om naartoe terug te gaan.
[English translation courtesy of Easy Reserve] Last week we stayed with four people in the house "La Quiete Nel Vigneto". We were warmly welcomed by the owner who briefly came back after two days to make sure everything was okay. House is very spacious (except for the kitchen) and all rooms are air-conditioned which was really needed. Garden is very big and you have total privacy, even the pool was bigger than we expected. The part with the pool is fenced and accessible through a small gate, ideal if you have children or a dog and you don't want them to swim on their own. Travel time to Cortona and the Trasimeno lake is approx 15 min, excellent base! All in all a top holiday, the house is definitely worth going back to.Would you recommend this property to a friend?
