Gracious hosts,beautiful surroundings,great location

Our stay was most enjoyable! Caroline and Pino the owners were always available to help with directions or translating! The grounds were beautiful and the garden fresh vegetables were wonderful! Great location, close to everything you need but far away enough to feel away from it all. We hope to return one day soon! Thomas and Deborah Benz St, Charles, Illinois USA

Gorgeous farmhouse

We had a wonderful week at Caroline and Pino's mill in Tuscany. Antonio and Simone were delightful, and were generous with information and recommendations about the local area. One of the key features that make this property so attractive is its proximity to local villages and shops, whilst giving you the sense that you are secluded and miles away from anywhere.

Charming Farmhouse, Peaceful Setting

Molino di Bordone is probably one of the most enjoyable places we have ever stayed. It is located in the beautiful and peaceful community of Cortona. A spectacular old farmhouse in the Tuscany Valley. We stayed for three days in the one bedroom Molinello 1 Apartment. It had everything that we needed, including a large kitchen, living room, separate bedroom, and our own private patio. We were greeted by Marianna (Caroline and Pino’s daughter) when we arrived. She was incredibly friendly and helped us get oriented to the house and the area. The yard and surrounding area was absolutely beautiful. We enjoyed our quiet evening and morning walks around the grounds. We even took a dip in the pool on one of the warm days. The location is perfect. We were able to visit Cortona, Siena, and Montipulcano during our three day stay. Caroline and Pino were the perfect hosts. We enjoyed meeting them and appreciated all the wonderful tips and advice. If we ever make it back to Tuscany we will definitely stay here again. We most certainly will recommend this place to family and friends.

Perfect!

My husband and I were looking for a place central to Tuscany and Umbria, where we could visit sites for day trips. We had been to Cortona but didn't want to be in the town, rather a quiet countryside setting was more to our liking. We chose the one bedroom apartment, Molinello. It was perfect - comfortable seating, a well equipped kitchen, a large bedroom with a private patio in back, and a washing machine in the bathroom. The unit retained all the charm of it's history, with modern comforts. Because Molino di Bordone is in the vast, flat valley, we were able to take nice walks every evening. Pino told us about longer walks that we tried and enjoyed. The family, parents and adult children, couldn't have been nicer, there when we had questions to give us ideas and suggestions, but allowing us our privacy as well. We stayed 12 nights and could have stayed longer. Loved it!

Beautiful rustic property in a great location!

Caroline and her family were very friendly and helpful! The villa was located perfectly since we had rented a car and could visit all the highlights that Tuscany and Umbria had to offer! It was unusually hot while we were there, so the pool was lovely! Would definitely come back, and would recommend to anyone looking for a great place to stay near Cortona!

The property was fantastic and our hosts could not have been better.

Molino di Bordone was a wonderful place to spend a week exploring Tuscany and Umbria. From our welcoming meal through our shopping trip to the Thursday market in Camucia, Simona was our "go to" person for everything we needed. She also makes the best zucchini flowers filled with ricotta and tiramisu you ever ate! We stayed in the Molinello suite which was perfect for us. We thoroughly enjoyed the family atmosphere, including being warmly welcomed every evening at our return by the family dogs and cats. If you are looking for a place near Cortona for a convenient location and relaxing stay, this is it.

Très bel endroit

Les lieux sont aussi beaux que sur les photos. L'endroit est calme, à quelques kilomètres de la charmante petite ville de Cortona. Grand espace de jeu (croquet, volley, foot, trampoline) à côté de la piscine. Les propriétaires sont sympathiques. Nous serions contents de revenir.

Lovely and peaceful!

Molino di Bordone was a lovely Tuscan farmyard tucked away in the countryside. The property was lovely and Pino and Caroline were excellent hosts. We loved exploring the property and our 4-year old son especially enjoyed the trampoline and playing with the dogs. The property was located close to Cortona, so we could easily get into town if we wanted to. We definitely recommend this property to others.

Honeymoon Holiday

My wife and I were very pleased with the accomodations during our brief 3 night stay at Il Molinello. From being pleasantly greeted upon arrival to the shared dinner at a local pizza shop to the helpful advice on "best places" to visit in the region to the genuine goodbyes before our departure. The property is beautifully surrounded by mountains and although our stay was during the beginning of spring (pre-bloom) it was enjoyable to witness a few of the flowers on the property begin to bud and come alive. Our stay here was the last leg of our honeymoon. Our honeymoon consisted of 3 nights in Venice, 3 nights in Florence and 3 nights here. Of the 3 places that we stayed we both agreed that Il Molinello was our favorite. We had wished we would have booked longer at this rental property. It was peaceful and we were able to relax and wind down before departing back home. Thank you Pino and Caroline for being such great hosts and for helping to make our stay reminiscent of home sweet home! Sincerely, Travis & Julia

Best of Tuscany!

If we move to Italy, it will be here! This is an absolutely lovely, tranquil setting in the Tuscan countryside. Caroline and Pino, our hosts, were warm, welcoming, and extremely helpful. We were enthusiastically greeted by the entire family. After Pino took our luggage into the lovely apartment, we were treated a mid-afternoon espresso on the terrace. Our rooms were more than adequate accommodating two old ladies with a lot of luggage. We felt quite at home and comfortable relaxing in the living area as we watched CNN news about the Icelandic ash cloud. The kitchen was well appointed and directions for appliances were readily available. The beds were comfortable and storage space was plenty. We appreciated the washing machine, and even more the fact that Caroline brought in our wash from out of the rain when we were off touring for the day. Both Caroline and Pino were very helpful with directions and suggestions of lessor known places to visit in the Tuscan countryside. We also appreciated their concern and flexibility that our travel plans might change due to the Icelandic Ash Cloud. Everything that is written about the accommodations and amenities for Il Molinello is most accurate. We appreciated the ease of payment with checks written on US banks. If we didn't have to come home, we would still be there! We hope to return again!

Charming Farmhouse

My friend recommended this lovely farmhouse to us and I'm glad she did. Our stay was wonderful. Carolyn and Pino (owners) are delightful. They made us feel welcome and provided us with lots of information on activities, attractions, and restaurants. We stayed in the II Molinello. The room was perfect, bigger than we expected. The room had everything we needed, we cooked at least one meal each day. The farmhouse grounds are beautiful and well maintained. We felt so comfortable during our stay. We're sure to go back with our kids soon. I recommend you rent a car, getting lost in Tuscany was a wonderful adventure, we ran into beautiful towns and friendly people.

Glad your stay was a success. What a good idea to drive off and get lost in the countryside! Those are unexpected and special moments. We look forward to seeing you again and to meeting the youth! Best wishes, Caroline and Pino

Our favorite spot in Italy!

This was our first trip to Italy (we are a fifty-something married couple). It was recommended by a friend. This is the perfect place to either relax and stay put OR to take day trips to every hilltown in Tuscany & Umbria. A great central location for both. We couldn't decide which we preferred! Turned out our favorite hilltown was nearby Cortona. Our experience was beyond our expectations, the farmhouse is so lovely and inviting, spotlessly clean, well furnished, the pool is wonderful, and the owners treat you like special guests. We originally scheduled a week's stay and ended up staying an extra 3 days! The pictures do not even begin to capture this breathtaking place. We hope all our of friends can eventually find their way to this incredible place.
