This charming little house called "Lo Chalet" is situated in the grounds of a farmhouse which nestles peacefully in the foothills of Cortona. Immersed in the beautiful landscape of the Valdichiana valley, it enjoys lovely views over hilltop villages, sunflowers, olive groves and cypresses. It is conveniently located for those wishing to visit Tuscany and Umbria and offers the perfect combination of both a relaxing and a cultural holiday.
The main house is a typical 19th Tuscan farmhouse, divided into apartments but the chalet is private and stands alone.
The pool (12 x 6 m) is spacious and the well-kept gardens with tables and barbecue offer pleasant areas for alfresco dining and relaxing.
