Location:

Olivetani enjoys a wonderfully secluded setting, surrounded by olive groves and tranquil rolling countryside, yet it remains close to some of Tuscany’s most enchanting destinations.
Just over a 15-minute drive away is the hilltop town of Cortona, home to fantastic restaurants, shops, bars and supermarkets. Its historic centre is a joy to explore, with Renaissance buildings such as the Palazzo del Popolo and charming boutiques selling handmade goods and the renowned vino nobile from nearby Montepulciano. History lovers can visit the Etruscan Academy Museum and Archaeological Park, which features ancient tombs, fortifications and Roman remains, as well as the cathedral and Diocesan Museum.
Within an hour lies Umbertide, a pretty riverside city marked by its medieval fortress, La Rocca, and the striking 16th-century church of Santa Maria della Reggia. Also under an hour away is Perugia, rich with medieval and Renaissance architecture, including the Fontana Maggiore, the Gothic cathedral and the Priori Palace. A visit isn’t complete without touring its famous chocolate factory - complete with tastings.
Art enthusiasts will appreciate Città di Castello, home to frescoes by Renaissance masters in the Church of San Domenico and works by Raphael and Lorenzetti at the Pinacoteca, housed in the elegant Palazzo Vitelli alla Cannoniera.
A little further afield, the cultural treasures of Siena and Florence await - from Siena’s 13th-century Duomo and panoramic town hall terrace to Florence’s iconic Ponte Vecchio, magnificent cathedral and world-class Uffizi Gallery.
