Pure romance - hidden between olive groves, this cosy stone house is located in the hills between Cortona (9 km) and Lake Trasimeno (18 km). Small, but fine and really cosy are the living rooms, with an open fireplace and a vine-covered pergola in front of the kitchen. And when you open the windows in the morning from the bedroom you can admire the pure Tuscany! A holiday home, ideal for relaxation: Bring all the books you could not read in the year - here you will find the right place to do that: on the deck chair by the pool, in the shade of the terrace with a glass of wine or on the comfortable sofa by the fireplace.
