Acerca de esta propiedad

Casa Emma, Near Cortona, Private Pool. BBQ, Stunning views, BBand,Relax, enjoy!

  • Idyllic Tuscan holiday house, originally built in the 15th Century but lovingly restored in the last 10 years.
    The house has spectacular views of the rolling Tuscan hills and valleys and is the perfect place to spend time with family or friends. The historic town of Cortona is a short 15 minute drive away.
    Great location from a 'get away from it all'' perspective...this house and location will make you relax. 3 pergolas dotted around the house so that you can chill out on your own if necessary,
    Very central in that Florence is 1.5 hours away and Rome 2.5 hours.
    We want you to enjoy Tuscany from the moment you arrive so we will leave you some bottles of local Red and White wine and other local delicacies.

    Salute..... Enjoy
    YOUR SPACE:
    Set in 30 acres of unspoilt National Park countryside in the Hills above Cortona, the setting for Francis Mayes book and film -Under the Tuscan Sun
    . Exclusively private pool with magnificent gardens and shady pergolas. Sip a Glass of Prosecco under the vine pergola by the pool!
    The house has all day sunshine until the late evening and an excellent access road.

    Three large well equipped bedrooms and modern bathrooms and three shady pergolas dotted around the property. Full modern kitchen with all appliances.


    House and Contents: The house offers an extremely high level of comfort and style, very comfortable beds, top class bed linen, well stocked kitchen, very powerful showers and comfortable settees.
    3 private Pergolas dotted around the gardens which will ensure that you can relax on your own when necessary

    The house is nestled amongst lush green hills and rolling countryside and offers unrivalled private and uninterrupted views of the countryside. The house is located in a nature reserve and there are many examples of magnificent eagles flying around in the thermals. It is impossible to build new houses in this region as regional authorities want this area to remain as it was for hundreds of years.

    Broadband wireless internet access available throughout the house.

    In the house you will find the essentials such as olive oil, balsamic vinegar, sugar, salt pepper etc. etc. in the kitchen. Please feel free to use these items.

    This area whilst being very close to the house is totally private and for your exclusive use
    There is a cover for the pool which you can use as you wish if you enjoy higher temperatures in the pool although most people feel this is not necessary during summer months.
    The pool are can be lit up at night if you enjoy a midnight swim.
    Power plug by the pool so you can enjoy your favourite music.
    The area around the pool is fenced and gated.
    There is a vine pergola close by where you and your party can enjoy evening drinks watching the sun set.

    Professionally landscaped garden overlooking the pool with a colourful variety of shrubs and flowers. . Cold shower by the pool for cooling down.

    This area is also a wonderful vantage point to watch the sun rise in the morning and see the skies lit up with the colours only seen in Tuscany - be inspired like the renaissance painters!

    Places of Interest:
    Eremo Le Celle..one of the must see spot in Cortona. Founded by Saint Francis of Assisi in 1211 This monastery is
    in a beautiful location built into the Tuscan Countryside. Surrounded by woods, complete with a gentle stream the monastery is open 7 days a week from 7.00 am to 7.00 pm.
    You must see the little cell where St Francis slept!

    THE Medieval Allure of Cortona.
    Besides famous place, local wines and absolutely stunning sunsets Cortona is known for its medieval allure. The town has a beguling energy. This town goes back to its Medieval roots with the Etruscans, an ancient pople mainly of the Tuscan coast whose roots go back to the 6th Century BC.
    THe MAEC museum in Piazza Signorelli will give you all the details. You can arrange a trip to the Parco Archeologico Del Sodo to see some Etruscan areas.
    There are usually open air concerts during the summer in the Piazza Signorelli (named after a famous renaissance painter who was born in Cortona) - everything from a jazz/blues band to the Carabinieri band doing their thing to operatic festivals.

    The Commune di Cortona put on music/art/wine tasting/vineyard visiting festivals each year - most of these are free - details available from the Tourist office situated just inside the MAEC museum entrance in Piazza Signorelli.
    Cortona Antiques fair every September.
    Giostra del Saracino also in nearby Arezzo every September.

    In fact almost every village and town in the area have their own Festa during the months of June/July/August and September.Full details of all these Festas are available from the Tourist Office.

    Lake Trasimeno:
    Located south of Cortona in the Province of Umbria this is the 4th biggest lake in Italy and was the scene of a famous battle between the Carthiginian army of Hannibal and the Roman Legions in and around 200 BC.
    Hannibal defeated a much larger Roman army on the shores of this lake during his famous campaign with the elephants.

    On the shores of the lake there is a little town, Castiglion del Lago. Wonderful little restaurants specialising in Umbrian food and wine and with a particular emphasis on fish dishes.

    All the famous Tuscan towns such as Florence, Cortona, Siena,Pisa, San Gimignano, Montepulciano are within easy reach of the house.

    Shopping: There are 2 excellent supermarkets in Camucia theb COOP and the Conad - open all day..
    You will be able to do all your grocery shopping here. In addition to a vast selection of groceries and vegetables there is a fabulous meat counter, deli counter and fresh fish counter. They stock a very good selection of wine, beers and bottles of Prosecco for the wine cooler start at about €3.00.
    There is also an off licence known locally as the Yellow House or Casa Gialla - yes it is painted yellow! This is just outside Camucia as you drive towards Terontola, on the left side of the road past the last roundabout. They sell a very good selection of top class wines and if you don't feel ilke spending a lot of money you can buy good locally produced box wine there.

    Cortona Shopping:
    Molesini's in Piazza Republica - The main Piazza in Cortona - very comprehensive selection of wines in this shop.

    Pasta Fresca - Cortona - just 100 metres on the right inside Porta Colonnia - this lady makes home made pasta to die for - home made lasagne and all kinds of Italian sauces.

    Local Shopping: There is a little shop in Portole just 3km away from the house beside Albergo Ristorante Portole where you can get the essentials if you run out.This is open in Summer months only. Have a Capuchino and a panino at the tables outside with a magnificent view looking towards Lake Trasimeno.

    Markets:
    Camucia market is held every Thursday from 8.00am to 1.00pm. Usual Italian fare everything from a needle to a rotovator!
    Get a porchetta panini made up for yourself at one of the many stalls. Porchetta is a Tuscan delight - a whole pig is spit roasted , stuffed with lots of herbs. Mouth watering!

    Restaurants: Cortona is full of delightful restaurants - there is a full guide to most of them in the house. Children are welcome at all restaurants.Best to book most in advance during July and August so as not to be disappointed.


    We have lots of other bits and pieces of information on the house, the area which we have put together over the past 10 years which we will gladly share with you.

Week’s stay with family

Villa Gioia is a lovely place to stay for a family or small group of friends. It has fabulous outside space, great location and well laid out interior giving the feeling of a much larger villa. It’s very well equipped for cooking and outside entertaining. Also excellent value for money for this prestigious area.

Stunning Italian Country Retreat

The villa is a lovely place to stay, with the most stunning views and tranquil setting. We really enjoyed being by the pool, sitting outside in the evenings and dinners around the farmhouse kitchen table. The house stays cool even in hot weather and the pool was one of the best we have had. Emma is a great host who is easy to communicate with and everything ran smoothly. We really want to go back one day.

The views from the house, breathtaking! The house has everything you will need for a relaxing stay in the Tuscan hills! There is absolutely nothing negative to say about our stay, except that the week went by too fast! Thank you, Ray, for letting us share your beautiful home!

Beautiful, tranquil villa in a lovely area

We had a fantastic week in this lovely villa. It really does have everything you could possibly need - a real home from home. Lots of lovely spaces inside and out to enjoy. We loved sitting out in the evenings having dinner and we’re lucky to be there during the Perseus meteor shower and saw lots of shooting stars in the clear skys. We also ate out in the lovely town of Cortona - la buccia with beautifully presented food and a couple of more casual restaurants which were also excellent. The local coop was very well stocked so we shopped there on our way back from days out. Lake Trasimeno is worth a visit with some nice towns around the lake and some beach Ed’s with canoes and paddle boards for hire. After a week in a hectic campsite by the coast this was a perfect retreat and a home that is clearly loved and cared for by the owners.

Sehr schönes, ruhig gelegenes Ferienhaus

Schönes Haus mit vielen tollen Sitzgelegenheiten und einer atemberaubenden Aussicht. Für Urlauber, die entspannen möchten und Ruhe suchen, perfekt. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und Restaurants sind in ca. 20-Minütiger Autofahrt erreichbar. Dies war aber bekannt. Eine Grundreinigung bzw. nach Mieterwechsel eine Entfernung der massenhaft vorhandenen Spinnweben wäre angebracht. Pool und Gartenanlage war perfekt. Einziger Nachteil, der uns etwas gestört hat, waren die Skorpione im Haus. Aber das ist der Preis der unbescholtenen Natur und Abgelegenheit.

Not too good

The garden, pool and exterior were nice but the interior is outdated. Too much pots&pans, paintings, accessories. We didn't feel at ease because of that. Couches with blankets, rugs etc. This kind of stuff makes the rooms dusty. Cleaning must be better (dust and spider webs, it attracts mosquito’s). The beds were good. Only two rooms do have airco. The fourth room is a vide above the kitchen and too hot to sleep.

Sommerferien in der Berg Idylle

Wunderschönes Anwesen, sehr gepflegt und absolut ruhig gelegen. Eignet sich wunderbar um aus dem Alltag zu entfliehen. Wer mehr Aktion will sollte zentraler buchen. Wir haben viel am Pool entspannt und Tagesausflüge geplant und durchgeführt. Würden jederzeit wieder gehen. Vielen lieben Dank für die schöne Zeit

Ruhig gelegenes Urlaubsdomizil in wunderschöner Natur

Wir haben eine ruhig gelegene Unterkunft gesucht, abseits von touristischem Trubel, und haben dies hier vorgefunden. Der Garten ist herrlich angelegt und der Duft von Lavendel, Rosmarin und Pinien war einfach wunderbar. Die vielen Schmetterlinge scheinen sich an diesem Ort auch wohlzufühlen. Wir haben gern in der urigen und gut ausgestatteten Küche gekocht und haben uns sonst hauptsächlich draußen am Pool oder unter der Pergola, mit atemberaubenden Ausblick auf die hügelige Umgebung, aufgehalten. Der Pool ist einfach traumhaft und eine willkommene Erfrischung bei heißen Temperaturen. Die Begegnung mit den in der Toskana vorkommenden kleinen Skorpione fanden die Kinder befremdlich, die Geckos hingegen fanden sie niedlich. Schön wären gemütlichere Sitzauflagen für die Stühle. Wir hatten einen tollen Aufenthalt und haben uns im Großen und Ganzen wohl gefühlt. Vielen Dank für die reibungslose Abwicklung.

Peace and quiet in the Tuscan hills

This property is somewhat remote, approximately 15-20 minutes outside Cortona. The drive is worth it for the spectacular views. The property has several outdoor areas in a beautifully maintained private hillside setting. The house is warm and welcoming and invites the outside in. The upstairs bedroom uses the bathroom on the main floor, but the stairs are well worth it because it opens to a lovely private terrace where you can watch the sun come up. The other bedroom that we used is on the same level as the dining room, kitchen and living room, and there is a full bathroom just outside the door. We visited several nearby towns, but spent two full days enjoying the swimming pool and relaxing.

one of the best holidays we had

We enjoyed 14 wonderfiul days in Villa Gioa. A place of peace and time to rest. We will definitely be back, because relaxation and tranquility is possible without any restrictions. Beautiful Cortona, with great bars and restaurants. To enjoy it is also just the right place. We love this house and the beautiful garden, the breathtaking views and nature and look forward to being back in summer of 2019. Thank you so much!!!!

Our holiday in Tuscany

Its all as it says " On the Tin ! Relaxing ; peaceful ; wonderful views ; great pool. With all the facilities you could ask for. Occasionally the odd shower or grey cloud to remind us of back home , but normally blue skies & sunshine to while away the days. Plus the hordes of beautiful butterflies ; the well laid out shrubs & aromatic herbs , and especially the early morning visits from the bounding hare. Val & John Smith + family.

Fantastic stay a Villa Gaoia

A warm and welcoming home in the mountains above Cortona has everything one could possibly need. The beds were very comfortable, the house was immaculately clean which is very important to us. There was a lovely welcome basket of goodies and a book of "things to know", house rules and suggestions on dining, shopping, site seeing which was very, very helpful. There is a lovely family that maintains the house - Karolina, the lovely daughter speaks excellent English and she is a delight. Her mom is an excellent cook as we decided to have her cook for us one evening. Karolina's dad helped get the heat on in the house as we were there very early in the season and it was quite cool. The views and the gardens are breathtaking. The bedrooms are spaced enough apart for privacy which was lovely. The kitchen had every type of bowl, appliance and kitchen utensil we could possibly need. All is in all it was a wonderful accommodation for 2 couples or a large family! The only thing we do want to mention is the roads to the house are extremely windy and slow going.You need to be prepared for this drive. It took a good 20 min. to get down to the town of Cortona. The address does not work on our WAZE GPS so it was a bit difficult to find but the hosts couldn't have been nicer to guiding us via phone. We would highly recommend your staying here! Peaceful and great for families with children. Lovely, Lovely, Lovely!

Delightful villa in thr Tuscan hills.

We stayed here for 2 weeks as a treat for our twins finishing university. The villa itself was a delight, in a beautiful setting. The villa is very well equipped.We loved sitting out in the evenings, watching the fire flies and listening out for the wild boar below. We ate out both at the Hotel in Portole as well as nearby pizzeria which we preferred as they do a lot more than pizza's. Highlights for us included Sienna, Montepulciano, Cortona and a trip to Leuter winery. The drive up/down to Campucia gets very tedious so the key is to call in to the supermarket on the way back from a day out.

Wonderful Hilltop Villa

Classically constructed with huge ceiling beams and thick stucco walls, the villa is multi-level. It is fully stocked and equipped, from a great kitchen with country-kitchen dining table (the heart of the villa), to hundreds of DVDs, books and many games. The pool is very nice and the exterior is beautifully landscaped and maintained. The views of the valleys below are tremendous with a number of outdoor seating areas to enjoy. The villa is private and quiet, laying 16 kilometers outside of Cortona along a scenic ridge-top road, about a 20 minute drive along the many switchbacks. The nearest grocery stores with convenient parking are in Camucia, about 30 minutes away. There is a washing machine with outside clothes lines for use. Three of the bedrooms are up or down a flight of stairs, a drawback for those for whom steps pose some difficulties. Only one bedroom has a bathroom adjacent to it. And for extended stays, there is little available storage space for unpacking clothes, etc. The owner is gracious and helpful, responding to any needs very quickly. With those minor considerations, our stay was wonderful and the Cortona-Camucia area is terrific as a vacation area and hub from which to travel (often by train) to different areas. We went as far as Rome and Venice from there as day trips.

Villa Goia is a wonderful setting, a dramatic view of the Tuscan hills and very close to beautiful, busy Cortona. Arrangements were excellent and the house is very well organised with everything you could want. We had a lovely, relaxing holiday with our family and would love to return there. Sarah

A fabulous place in a fabulous part of Italy..

We had the pleasure this summer of staying for two weeks in Villa Gioia located in the hills above Cortona in Tuscany. It was our first visit to this part of the world and certainly won’t be the last as we have much more to see. The house is perfect and provided a home from home which we all enjoyed : Lovely views from the various terraces which enabled us to take in the wonderful scenery over a glass of red, the gardens are a delight, full of butterflies with rosemary, sage, fennel, thyme and lavender giving off an intoxicating smell, a wonderful swimming pool which provided a welcome respite from the summer sun and the house itself is so well equipped, full of information and very comfortable so we wanted for nothing. The pictures on the website look great but the real thing is even better ! Luca is close on hand to provide good advice and insights on the area including where to park and the best local trattorias.. We were able to visit some of the places on our list, Perugia and Assisi in Umbria, Montepulciano, Sienna, San Griminagno among the villages in the Tuscan hills we visited but for much of the time we enjoyed taking in the wonderful scenery in the area as well as the fantastic food ( porchetta paninis are something else ..). Our Tuscan experience was something we won’t ever forget. We would certainly recommend Villa Gioia to anyone who is looking for a luxurious place to stay whilst discovering this wonderful area and we hope to return to discover and experience more some day

Wonderful villa in a stunning setting

We have just returned regretfully from a wonderful week at this villa. The setting on the top of a wooded valley is beautiful, and the garden is full of lavender, rosemary and jasmine with wonderful scents and the only sounds are the buzzing of the bees. There are so many places to sit and enjoy the variety of amazing views, that we had difficulty choosing which one to enjoy. The pool is a refreshing temperature and children and adults all loved it. The house itself is very comfortable and well equipped. Our teenager made full use of the DVD collection, whilst the adults enjoyed taking advantage of the kitchen facilities and wine fridge. Our local contact was extremely helpful and even booked us a meal at a local restaurant which was superb. He also organised for us to have a traditional Tuscan meal cooked for us at the villa which was delicious. We were able to drive to some very interesting towns and Lake Trasimeno, and although we avoided going to Siena or Florence, they were also within easy reach. The road to Cortona had the most lovely views across the hills with Lake Trasimeno in the distance. It is a perfect base from which to enjoy the culture, history, food and wine of Tuscany.

Wonderful views, beautiful gardens, characterful and homely villa.

We spent a wonderful week in this beautiful property. It is in a very quiet location, high up in the hills above Cortona. The gardens are sublime, with massed planting of lavender, rosemary, sage and jasmine scenting the air. The views are even better than the photos suggest. There are several terraces with comfortable seating, so you can always find a quiet spot for a meal or to read a book. The pool was excellent, with a generous terrace, comfortable sun loungers, umbrellas and fabulous views. It was clean and well maintained, and the water was never too cold to enjoy a swim. The villa itself is full of character, and feels like a well loved family home. It is not smart, but is comfortable and well equipped.
