Hotel Location:

The Hotel Villa di Piazzano is a 1400s manor house located in the countryside just outside the town of Cortona, a town on the border between Tuscany and Umbria made famous by the American writer Frances Mayes with her book and later the movie, Under the Tuscan Sun. The Villa is surrounded by a garden of 1 hectare, with a beautiful formal Italian garden, a spectacular entrance with a cypress lined driveway, a large swimming pool and private parking for guests. The menu of the restaurant changes with the seasons and offers dishes which are traditional of this region, based on local and genuine products. The hotel also has a bar facility which is transferred under the shaded terrace in the summer months. The rooms have all the modern comforts, including air-conditioning and the windows overlook the surrounding hills and the garden. They are all different from one another and some have canopy beds. The Hotel Villa di Piazzano is an ideal base for a series of activities, whether they be sporting activities or sightseeing. From the Villa there are also biking trails and a golf club with 18 holes just 25 minutes by car. If you want to improve your knowledge of Italian cuisine and wines, you can attend cooking classes at the Villa, or participate in a wine tasting event in the ancient cellar, or olive oil tasting during the November harvest season in one of the nearby mills.
