Traditional Tuscan house with Exclusive Use of House, Garden, Pool and Grounds | House in Cortona
4 Bedroom House in San Pietro a Cegliolo, Cortona
Halfway up a valley, and commanding breathtaking views over the rolling landscape of the Val di Chiana to the mountain range dominated by Monte Amiata, the Casa del Mulino enjoys a secluded setting with no buildings overlooking the house or swimming pool. Pool normally available in June-August only. This house, built over 200 years ago and sensitively restored over the past 40 years by our family, stands in extensive grounds, and features bedrooms with separate entrances making it ideal for groups of friends or families. The grounds include a 'secret garden' with statues and surrounded by a wisteria covered pergola, classically inspired parkland with a 'temple' and monuments, and a woodland hollow with a stream running through it and flowers on its banks. The house, garden and parkland covers 1800 square metres (2150 square yards, 0.18 hectares, 0.45 acres) for the exclusive use of guests.
Unlike the many 'agriturismo' options in the area, the house, pool and gardens are for the exclusive use of one set of guests giving a very private and relaxing setting for guests to enjoy the Tuscan countryside. The house has remained true to its setting with its oak beams and traditional furniture. It is house used for 40 years by the owner's family and is comfortable and well maintained but does not pretend to be a hotel (no gold taps!).
The house is set in a fine location for walks and bird watching. Within a 15 minute walk is one of the best wineries in the area (the Barrachi Estate), which does wine tasting and offers fine dining in its restaurant 'Il Falconiere'. There are also local beekeepers, who sell honey from their bees within 10 minutes walk. Seasonal pleasures vary from birdsong and wild flowers in spring and early summer to the olive and grape harvests in autumn. While the house has a rustic setting, shops and supermarkets are only 10 minutes away.
The house is also ideally situated to discover lesser known towns and sites in southern Tuscany and nearby Umbria, the house is also within easy reach of the famous centres with Florence, Siena, Assisi, Montepulciano, Perugia, Orvieto and Arezzo all 30-75 minutes away by car. Lake Trasimeno (water sports, kayaking, swimming) is 30 minutes by car.
