About this property

Farm on the hills of Cortona with a spectacular view of the Valdichiana Valley

In the quite Tuscan country side, among olive trees, you will find Margherita Holiday Home.
Our small business comes from a great interest in restoring and maintaining the old building material and the original contest of the old times. The location, up on a hill, is really extraordinary: on one side there is a view of Cortona and in front you face the beautiful Val di Chiana; you can take the pleasure for trekking, walking from the numerous olive trees up to the mountain through the chestnut wood.

Wonderful!!
A wonderful villa in the country. Our hosts were exceptional and very welcoming. It was our favorite stay and I would recommend a relaxing stay here. Visit the animals, relax by the pool, or walk to Cortona. A hidden gem in Tuscany! They went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. I am forever grateful for the drive to get supplies and to the train station. Exceptional people at a charming and exceptional place. Thankyou!

Heerlijke vakantie
Zeer tevreden over ons verblijf . Super vriendelijke eigenaars die ons meermaals verrasten met verse eitjes , courgetten en hun lekkere zelfgemaakte olijfolie . Prachtige rustige plek om te verblijven en ideale uitvalsbasis voor uitstappen in de mooie regio . Een echte aanrader !

Charming and Peaceful!!
This property is a place I would revisit if I returned to Italy. I would stay at least a month if I returned! So “bellissiom!” Beatrice and Bernardo have put their hearts and souls into making this olive farm beautiful and idyllic. My friend and I were hit with the smell of jasmine when we walked out the door. The only reason I gave the check in process a “3” instead of a “5” was because my google map couldn’t find it, but that certainly wasnt

Amazing hosts and animals
We were welcomed with a delicious deserts and friendly hosts! We were able to try some of their olive oil that they grow on their land, and had to purchase 6 bottles for our group because it was so delicious! The donkeys entertained us for hours and we’re so fun! The view was amazing and the apartment was adorable. (Although keep in mind that the pool is closed in the off-season.) Thank you for an amazing weekend!

About the host

Hosted by Beatrice Milani

Host profile image
I'm Beatrice the owner of the farm, I was born and raised in Cortona,.
I love my land and I like to introduce my guests, stories, traditions, places to visit and the kitchen of the Chiana Valley.
In farm I organize cooking classes, and with the products of our organic oil, cook and have dinner together.
They are also an hiking guide and I propose excursions in the area, where you can experience contact with the places and the most attractive landscapes off the beaten track

Why they chose this property

I bought this property in 1999, because it is located in the hilly countryside more beautiful of Cortona.
When I saw it the first time, although it was a ruin, it was love at first sight, immediately struck by the breathtaking view of Cortona and the Chiana Valley.

What makes this property unique

The property is located on a panoramic hilly and surrounded by nature, but easily accessible, just 4 km from Cortona, an ideal place to relax and visit the most famous art cities of Central Italy such as Florence, Siena, Perugia, Assisi, etc.
