5 Bedroom Villa in Cortona

Vacation in a Renaissance Painting at Il Rifugio...
where you will enjoy privacy, serenity, and spectacular views. Unwind in this 17th-century farmhouse on 64 acres of gardens, fields, woodlands, and centuries-old terraced olive groves.
Il Rifugio is comprised of a stone farmhouse and 64 acres of private land. The house is situated on the edge of an ancient olive grove located above the village of Montanare in the community of Cortona in Tuscany, Italy. Cortona is just 10 minutes away by car. The house can accommodate 10 people in 5 bedrooms.
There are two charming buildings: one is the main house, which has ten rooms plus 4-1/2 bathrooms, and the other is a small cottage, a few steps from the kitchen, with a laundry room and a bedroom with a bathroom.
Upstairs in the main house are four bedrooms: a master bedroom with a double bed, en suite bathroom, and a second bedroom with a double bed and en suite bathroom; two other bedrooms with en suite bathrooms each with single beds that can be made up as doubles; and a common sitting room with a fireplace.
Downstairs is a large kitchen with a fireplace, a separate walk-in pantry, a dishwasher, a five-burner stove with two ovens, a refrigerator, microwave, toaster oven, American coffee machine, enough pots and pans for cooking gourmet meals, and an outdoor pizza oven. Also downstairs is a half bath, sitting room, formal dining room, and a living room with a large fireplace fitted with a cast-iron wood-burning stove.
The cottage has a laundry room with a washer, dryer, and deep sink, and a bedroom with two single beds and an en suite bathroom. Il Rifugio can comfortably accommodate up to ten people, with ample space for privacy. There is plenty of garden furniture and a pergola on the spacious stone terrace for eating or relaxing outdoors, with spectacular views of the surrounding olive grove and the rural valley below.
Utilities are included in the rental price. Of course, the house is completely cleaned and supplied with fresh towels, soap, bed linens, and basic supplies before you arrive and every week. Additional maid service during the week can be arranged at a minimal cost depending on the number of guests. Additional services, such as private city and winery tours, Tuscan garden tours, private in-house dinners, cooking classes, wine or olive oil tasting, etc can be prearranged at the time of booking.
PLEASE NOTE: Il Rifugio only rents by the week from Saturday to Saturday.

Summary: Il Rifugio is located just outside of Cortona (less than 10 minutes). The owners, Chuck and his wife, Shirley, have taken care to make Il Rifugio a home away from home - wherever you may have come. The location of the property makes it a great home-base for day trips around Tuscany - however the beauty and tranquility of the property makes it easy to just “stay at home”, relax and unwind with friends and family. The large kitchen is equipped with anything you need - and the herb garden makes for amazing touches to any meal. Each of the five bedrooms has it’s own bath with toilet, sink and shower (the master also having a large tub). Most of the rooms can be set up with either a queen or two singles - making it perfect for our group of ten adults. There are multiple large seating areas around the house, both inside and out, allowing you to make any meal special. WiFi is strong throughout the house - including around the pool - making it easy to stay connected to work...or post those amazing sunset pictures to whatever social platform you like to share. A fully functional washer and dryer (and clothesline) make it easy to pack light for a week in paradise. There is no shortage of amazing views - the 65 acre property includes hundreds of olive trees and grape vines, and, located high on a hill, a breathtaking view of the valley as the sun falls. (You can also purchase wine and olive oil - made from the fruit of Il Rifugio.) Shirley is an established chef who created some wonderful meals for our group. She also showed the patience of a saint as she led seven of us through an AMAZING Italian cooking class. Chuck was quick to respond to any requests, inquiries, etc. He provided recommendations for restaurants, day trips, etc. He also set up two local wine tastings and an olive process tour and meal. We all look forward to a return trip in the not too distant future - and will be recommending Il Rifugio to all of our friends and family looking for an amazing place to stay in Central Italy.
