Description:

PRIVATE STRUCTURE (lease only). Torretta is a splendid antique property, located on the top of a nice hill next to the Medieval town of Cortona. Being surrounded by oak-trees and olive-trees, you can appreciate the Tuscan country side. What makes the property unique is, on one side, it's splendid panoramic position overlooking the entire Valdichiana valley, and on the other, the circular tower with a roof made of stone tiles built in the 16th century, which through the ages has been transformed into a windmill. The country house built in the 18th century has recovered its beautiful antique splendour thanks to the accurate restoration of the owners, who found the perfect balance between the old and the new, rendering your stay as pleasant as possible. Casale La Torretta is an unique and maybe even magical, where you can enjoy an unforgettable and certainly splendid and relaxing holiday.

LA TORRETTA HAS BEEN SUBJECTED TO A CHECK-UP BY A TECHNICAL RESPONSIBLE BEFORE THE BEGINNING OF THE SEASON, TO ENSURE CONSISTENCY OF THE DESCRIPTION, ACCESSORIES LISTED ON THIS PAGE AND THEIR PRESENT STATE OF OPERATION/MAINTENANCE, TO GUARANTEE QUALITY, CLEANLINESS AND COMFORTS TO ALL CLIENTS WHO WILL STAY HERE.

Interior:

The country house made out of stone, has a characteristic external loggia and is divided into two levels. On the ground floor you will find the kitchen, which overlooks the well kept garden and offers you a wonderful view.

The living room has an ornamental fire-place, sofas and TV, are inserted in an ambience with large wooden beams and big windows that enable you to admire the panorama. On the same floor you'll find two bedrooms which are comunicating (one double and one twin), both with an adjoining bathroom. Both the double and the twin have direct access into the garden, but can not be accesed from the outside of the property. A characteristic loggia, can be reached by a beautiful stone staircase, accessing the first floor. This floor is made up of comfortable living room you will find a large ornamental fire-place and curious niches in the walls. It is relaxing and comfortable at the same time decorated with typical Tuscan colours and ardent terracotta pavement. From the living room there are two double bedrooms with wrought iron beds and antique wardrobes, one bedroom has an en-suite bathroom and the other bedroom has an adjacent bathroom. TOWER: The tower has a round form and still preserves pieces of stone pavement and characteristic spiral stairs. At the ground floor you will find a tiny reading-room and a delightful bathroom. By taking the spiral stairs you can enter the master bedroom. This bedroom has very old embrasured windows, an original wardrobe and an iron bed. The laundry room is located adjacent to the swimming pool with entrance only from the outside.

Park:

The garden, of approximately 5.000 m² is well maintained and delimited by a wooden fence, and is in perfect harmony with the Mediterranean vegetation which surrounds the property. The total estate of the property encloses 4,2 hectares, which ensures complete privacy. 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.

We loved the privacy and the authenticity of La Torretta. Arriving on the property was like stepping into a scene from a movie, breathtaking views, olive trees, the glittering pool. We were pleasantly surprised by how much bigger the Villa and property seemed versus the photos from the website. The little town of Pergo at the bottom of the hill with its market, local pizzeria and friendly bar/cafe with gelato was very convenient. And the larger picturesque town of Cortona with its restaurants an

Indeed, there are 4 bathrooms for 4 rooms. One room with individual beds. The first floor was for parents, and the ground floor was for the kids. They enjoined such freedoom. The stair are outside. The kitchen and living room are accessible without distrubing the kids in the mooring.

Better ant control - as in better traps not just spray. They showed us electric meter up from but given we have no idea how much electricity is it seemed a little sketchy.

What rate would you give for the customer service (including check in/out)?
excellent
What suggestions do you have to better the service provided by Emma Villas?
The biggest disappointment was that we could not walk to town. I had expressed that as big priority so my husband would not always have to drive everyone. It was described as 1 km but it really was longer and not walkable. It was my own fault for not being more clear how important this was to us. Other than that everyone at Emma Villas was professional and helpful.

Description:

PRIVATE STRUCTURE (lease only). Torretta is a splendid antique property, located on the top of a nice hill next to the Medieval town of Cortona. Being surrounded by oak-trees and olive-trees, you can appreciate the Tuscan country side. What makes the property unique is, on one side, it's splendid panoramic position overlooking the entire Valdichiana valley, and on the other, the circular tower with a roof made of stone tiles built in the 16th century, which through the ages has been transformed into a windmill. The country house built in the 18th century has recovered its beautiful antique splendour thanks to the accurate restoration of the owners, who found the perfect balance between the old and the new, rendering your stay as pleasant as possible. Casale La Torretta is an unique and maybe even magical, where you can enjoy an unforgettable and certainly splendid and relaxing holiday.

LA TORRETTA HAS BEEN SUBJECTED TO A CHECK-UP BY A TECHNICAL RESPONSIBLE BEFORE THE BEGINNING OF THE SEASON, TO ENSURE CONSISTENCY OF THE DESCRIPTION, ACCESSORIES LISTED ON THIS PAGE AND THEIR PRESENT STATE OF OPERATION/MAINTENANCE, TO GUARANTEE QUALITY, CLEANLINESS AND COMFORTS TO ALL CLIENTS WHO WILL STAY HERE.

Interior:

The country house made out of stone, has a characteristic external loggia and is divided into two levels. On the ground floor you will find the kitchen, which overlooks the well kept garden and offers you a wonderful view. From the kitchen one has access to the spacious dining room, with a big stone ornamental fire-place and equipped with antique furniture, that is extremely functional. The living room has an ornamental fire-place, sofas and TV, are inserted in an ambience with large wooden beams and big windows that enable you to admire the panorama. On the same floor you'll find two bedrooms which are comunicating (one double and one twin), both with an adjoining bathroom. Both the double and the twin have direct access into the garden, but can not be accesed from the outside of the property. A characteristic loggia, can be reached by a beautiful stone staircase, accessing the first floor. This floor is made up of comfortable living room you will find a large ornamental fire-place and curious niches in the walls. It is relaxing and comfortable at the same time decorated with typical Tuscan colours and ardent terracotta pavement. From the living room there are two double bedrooms with wrought iron beds and antique wardrobes, one bedroom has an en-suite bathroom and the other bedroom has an adjacent bathroom. TOWER: The tower has a round form and still preserves pieces of stone pavement and characteristic spiral stairs. At the ground floor you will find a tiny reading-room and a delightful bathroom. By taking the spiral stairs you can enter the master bedroom. This bedroom has very old embrasured windows, an original wardrobe and an iron bed. The laundry room is located adjacent to the swimming pool with entrance only from the outside.

Park:

The garden, of approximately 5.000 m² is well maintained and delimited by a wooden fence, and is in perfect harmony with the Mediterranean vegetation which surrounds the property. The total estate of the property encloses 4,2 hectares, which ensures complete privacy. 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.

The fenced swimming pool, purified with chlorine, open from the last Saturday of April to the first Saturday of October, is situated on a terrace bounded by a wall made out of stone, measures 4 x 8 m with a depth varying from 1.10 to 1.90 m, a sunbathing area with furnishings, two gazebos, solar shower, and umbrella.

We were pleasantly surprised by how much bigger the Villa and property seemed versus the photos from the website. The little town of Pergo at the bottom of the hill with its market, local pizzeria and friendly bar/cafe with gelato was very convenient.

Good location. Good view. Quite. Close to Cortona and Camucia for shopping. The villa arrangement is perfect for 2 famillies of 2 adultes + 2 children, like us. Indeed, there are 4 bathrooms for 4 rooms. One room with individual beds. The first floor was for parents, and the ground floor was for the kids. They enjoined such freedoom. The stair are outside. The kitchen and living room are accessible without distrubing the kids in the mooring.

What suggestions do you have to better the service provided by Emma Villas?
The biggest disappointment was that we could not walk to town. I had expressed that as big priority so my husband would not always have to drive everyone. It was described as 1 km but it really was longer and not walkable. It was my own fault for not being more clear how important this was to us. Other than that everyone at Emma Villas was professional and helpful.
