Le Volpaie - is a country house in the middle of the splendid Valdichiana landscape, 10 minutes from Cortona, a characteristic historic Tuscan centre capable of hosting a great number of foreigners during the summer time. Our holiday house is set on a rather isolated site, in fact, a country road for approximately two km, before you will reach a breathtaking scenery. Le Volpaie is a 180 sqm splendid stone-built country house recently restored, excellently refined (antique hand-made terracotta floors and beamed ceilings) and furnished by the owners with taste and elegance.

the house is built on two levels. On the ground floor there are a large lobby, lounge, dining room, well equipped kitchen, bathroom with shower and tub, twin bedroom. An internal staircase leading up to the first floor with a livingroom/study with additional single bed, double bedroom, twin bedroom, bathroom with shower. A laundry room has been created outside in the annex, provided with all necessary fittings.

Park:
1.500 sqm of garden, excellently maintained and embellished with flowering plants. Here you will find the swimming pool from where you have a wonderful view on the landscape of the Cortona hills.Please notice that photos are taken in spring, therefore flower blossoming, and the colours of the gardens' grass could be different at the moment of your arrival at the villa.

Access roads: 1 km of a partly paved and partly gravel road steep and very narrow, it is a mountainous road characterized also by a couple of elbow curves so it is not suitable for vehicles over 2.20 m wide and for vehicles that are low/sportive or with automatic drive.
