Villa's in Cortona

'When we were looking for somewhere to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary with our family we naturally turned to Italy where we have spent many happy holidays in the past. We found Fondo Caprile in an area we had visited before and decided that it would be the ideal place. How right we were. It certainly lived up to its photos and our expectations. Communications beforehand with the host, Mieke, were prompt and helpful. The house itself was equipped with everything you can think of (and...

'We had a fabulous week - we were 9 adults. Location was great - 5 minute drive up the hill to Cortona and 5 minute drive to grocery store and train station in Camucia. The property is spacious the garden is great. Note that 3 bedrooms are in an attached annex and 5 bedrooms in the main house. We had lovely dinners in the kitchen dining room every night. The kitchen is wells stocked with 2 big fridges and everything you need. And the hosts organized a chef for a celebratory night which was...

'Wir hatten einen wundervollen Aufenthalt in diesem tollen Haus in der Toskana. Wir waren mit einer Gruppe aus 8 Freunden dort. Das Haus bietet 5 Schlafzimmer und 4 Bäder, sodass wir genügend Platz hatten. Die Küche ist sehr gut ausgestattet, man braucht nichts mitzubringen (außer vielleicht ein scharfes Messer).

'Beautiful villa in Tuscan countryside with lots of room - 5 bedrooms/5 baths. Close to Cortona which was our favorite hill town. Gigi, our host, arranged a private cooking class for us at the villa that was exceptional. We couldn’t find any gnocchi, ragu sauce or tiramisu the rest of the trip that lived up to Chef Enrico’s! The day we left they were harvesting grapes on the vineyard next to the villa. '

'We really enjoyed our stay. The garden was amazing. We enjoyed our time at the pool. Elisabeth was extremely friendly! The house was clean and had everything we needed. Thank you for the wonderfull stay'

'We really enjoyed our stay with our family of 5. Louise was very helpful in giving tips for things to do in the area and she arranged a nice wine tasting for us.'

'Dit huis ligt aan het eind van een circa 1 km lange rots/gravel weg. Om er te komen heb je echt een hogere en krachtige auto nodig. Dan nog is er risico om een band lek te rijden, zoals ook ons overkomen. Het huis is prima, ruim en voorzien van alle gemakken. Karakteristiek en met smaak verbouwd. Het zwembad is prima en echt niet te klein zoals sommigen suggereren. De bedden zijn geen echte 2 persoonsberden, daarvoor zijn ze echt te smal. Het buitenmeubilair is aan vervanging toe, maar er zijn...
