The house, which dates 19th century, as can be seen from the inscription on sandstone conserved by the owner, has undergone renovation which has maintained the interior structure that the preceding owners had given it. The house has a large park divided between approximately 1500 sq m of garden with the rest given over to terracing with olive trees. On the top floor is the owners’ apartment, very reserved people but at the same time very helpful to guests if the need should arise. The owners’ apartment has a completely independent entrance and they do not use the park or the pool. Casa del Sole is a few hundred metres from the centre of Cortona yet pleasantly immersed in the green hill of Cortona from where it dominates the valley below. Cosy corners in the garden as well as fabulous glimpses of the view can be enjoyed by the guests in this charming property. From here the beautiful little towns of Montepulciano, Pienza, Montalcino but also the more important towns like Siena, Perugia, Florence and Rome can be easily reached.

Interior:
The part used for renting is all on one floor. The main entrance leads into the kitchen with dining area and into the sitting room with working fireplace formed by an open space divided by a brick archway. A corridor leads to the sleeping area composed of a double bedroom and a twin bedroom, with two queen size beds, which share a bathroom with tub and shower. Air conditioning only in the bedrooms.

Park:
The park extends around the house for about 1000 sq m, of which about 500 sq m are garden and the rest terracing with olive trees. Many large trees, such as oaks and holm oaks, linden, cypress, plum and fig trees, are present in the property. The various corners of the garden are embellished by vibernum, rosemary and spiraea bushes, bamboo and pots with various kinds of flowers. In a secluded area of the garden is an open air lounge with comfortable armchairs with cushions and a small rattan table, a charming spot for sitting and relaxing in absolute peace. At the back of the house is a pergola furnished with table and chairs and a barbecue for pleasant alfresco meals.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.

Our family of three had a wonderful time staying at this beautiful property. The location was excellent, just a ten minute walk uphill into the center of charming Cortona, with lots of great restaurants and shops. There are beautiful views from the home over the valley below and of the nearby church. We loved the pool and eating at the outdoor covered patio. The inside was cozy and rustic, and we slept comfortably with the bedroom A/C units. The property owner, Teresa, was very friendly and welcoming and easy to communicate with via WhatsApp. She greeted us upon our arrival and gave us our keys, and also met us at the gate to say goodbye at the end of our stay. She and her husband stayed in a small cottage on the far side of the property that we couldn’t even see, and not upstairs in their usual home like I expected, so it felt like we had the place all to ourselves and it was very private and quiet. They have a sweet cat named Cherie who roams the property and we got to pet a couple times. Everything was fabulous, and my only complaint was one that likely can’t be helped, and that’s mosquitos, likely due to recent rains followed by hot temps. Make sure to bring bug spray and cover yourself in it each day and you should be fine. We would love to come back someday! Grazie to Teresa for a fabulous vacation!

My sister & I loved everything about Casa del Sol. The comfortable home, traditional historic Italian architecture, and the breathtaking Panasonic views. Teresa was amazing & a perfect host throughout our visit & her husband Alfonso was great too. They are warm & helpful however give ultimate privacy. The location a 15 walk to the fabulous town of Cortona was perfect. It’s a short drive to many other towns in Tuscany. The pool is crystal clear, and was a bit cool as weather had dipped unseasonably. But we enjoyed our few swims. So many lovely areas to eat al fresco or lounge & have your sunset drinks. We would love to return again for a longer visit.
