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 Casina di Salcotto
What a great place to stay and experience the Tuscan life. Although the house is small, it is well equipped and gives all the comfort you need. The view from the terrace near the pool is great. The Puccini’s were perfect hosts and helped us without being intrusive. The accommodation was clean. The pool and garden were great. We experienced a lot of privacy . We both would return without hesitation. A small confusion was the distant sound of an ongoing party in Camucia. Part of the Italian life we presume. Booking through Easy Reserve went flawless.
