Description
This ancient villa near Cortona, set in a charming garden with a swimming pool and breathtaking views, has been restored with refinement. The main villa is a Boutique Hotel consisting of 10 bedrooms located on different floors, accessible by an ancient stone staircase, with 8 en suite bathrooms. On the walls, you can still see layers of original plasterwork adorned with evocative reproductions of anatomical studies of Leonardo da Vinci. The original materials, the antique doors, the painted ceilings and the stone façade guarantee the authenticity of the property and its great historical and artistic value. Each room is characterized by the soft colours of the walls, the antique furnishings and the breathtaking views. What makes this property really stand out is the "Bachificio" (silkworm house), a large building built in 1860 on 2 floors. It was originally used for the production of wine and silkworms; now there is a restaurant and living room for guests on the ground floor, while the first floor is the ideal location for weddings, workshops, concerts, team building, yoga, and events in general. Practicing bodywork activity or holistic practices on a 200 sqm wooden floor with 8-meter-high ceilings is a great emotion. The poetry of the place and its unconventional restoration become the ideal "stage" for a working and personal growth. The recently built spa has a room carved into the rock, a swimming pool in travertine mosaic with hydromassage, an infrared pine wood sauna with chromotherapy, a stone-clad Turkish bath, a large shower surrounded by tropical plants, a relaxation area overlooking the woods, a corner for drinking purifying herbal teas and a room for massages and holistic treatments. The property has an excellent commercial goodwill with growing numbers and the present owners are available to stay, for a period of time to be agreed, as manager of the business activity, in order to guarantee the best possible take over.

Location: Cortona, Tuscany
This Hotel is located in the municipality of Cortona, in eastern Tuscany, between the "Val di Chiana" and "Val Tiberina", a few kilometres from the green Umbria. The area was known and inhabited even before the Etruscan age and that is why now is rich in history and traditions. The valley that surrounds it is very well preserved; the surrounding woods, fields and olive groves are hundreds of years old and are dotted with farmhouses. Cortona, a beautiful small town always at the top of visits thanks to a unique tourist offer that combines archaeology, spirituality and excellent food and wine, is 20 km away. The nearest village is 2.5 km away, where you can find essential services such as banks, supermarkets, post office, pharmacy, taxis, pubs, gas stations. The Lake Trasimeno is only 16 km away. Over the past two centuries, the structure has been run as a productive farm. In the 19th century, an excellent red wine was produced here, and was mainly exported. Extra-virgin olive oil from the Umbria- Tuscany area is extremely balanced, very aromatic and not too strong. The property includes a recently planted olive grove, which gives olives every year, as well as fruit trees such as figs, cherries, walnuts, apricots and plums that can be offered to the guests.
