Villa Cortona, Val d'Orcia

Essenza has been an absolute joy to work with! Chiara and Camilla were both wonderful. Communication was excellent throughout — before, during and after the trip. I'm looking forward to working with Essenza again on future itineraries! I highly recommend this wonderful company!

Surrounded by the Tuscan charm of the quintessential village Cortona, you spend the days living the ethos of Italian living, la Dolce Vita.

Set just outside the walls of the vibrant village of Cortona and within a few minutes’ walk of its charming centre, the location couldn’t be more perfect to explore both Tuscany and Umbria. The many charming towns of the Val d’Orcia such as Montepulciano, Pienza and Montalcino, are all within a short drive away allowing for easy day trips. From wine and cheese tasting, to horse riding and farm activities; from music festival and open-air concerts to splendid churches and museums, there is something to satisfy every taste.

Immersed in the countryside surrounding Cortona, this Hollywood-scene villa is the ideal location for large families or group of friends looking to indulge in the Italian dolce vita. Once the setting of the Diane Lane’s famous movie Under The Tuscan Sun, Villa Cortona is now a luxury rental villa in Tuscany, painstakingly restored to offer a spacious retreats that can accommodate up to 20 guests.

Gardens and olive groves embrace the villa’s private swimming pool and jetted jacuzzi from where to enjoy the views of sun-dappled hills. Al fresco dining areas, gas grill and authentic stone pizza oven are the ingredients for memorable evenings spent enjoying the local delicacies, whether cooked by the guests or by one of our professional chefs. The game room is the perfect place for entertaining children and adults alike, with billiards, board games and ping pong – the ideal large villa rental for a multi-generational holiday!

Every room has a beautiful view over the gardens up to Cortona or over the olive groves and across the valley. All bedrooms are fitted with air conditioning, hair dryers, a selection of luxurious natural Italian products, fully bathrobes, slippers and sheets of the highest quality Egyptian cotton for the most comfortable experience.

Two weeks at Villa Cortona surrounded by spectacular scenery in a beautiful villa, creating everlasting memories with loved ones. Life doesn’t get any better.
