Under theTuscan sun....

Holiday rental

Casa Valentina



In the heart of Italy, a traditional landscape of vineyards, cypress trees, olive groves and huge oak forests awaits you.

Close to Lake Trasimeno lies the ancient Etruscan town of Cortona. 

Nestled in a natural amphitheatre in a mountain nature reserve 11 kilometers from Cortona  Casa Valentina offers a taste of Tuscany wonder.

The peaceful “Casa Valentina” is set on a huge property overlooking the mystical peaks of Tuscany and Umbria.

Surrounded by forest, birdsong and soothing nature it  offers   some wonderful hiking trails which start at your doorstep.

It is a good alternative for anyone wanting a break or a bit more Peace than Party.

This over 800 year old former farmhouse, traditionally built in local Tuscan limestone, has been renovated with great care and simplicity so that the three apartments have kept their original charm. Look at the  photos !

You can discover the area by hiking, on mountain bikes, on horseback or with our sailboat at Lake Trasimeno.

In order to maintain the peace and tranquility of these residence we request that all guests park their cars at the bottom of the entrance. This also gives you the benefit of walking up a beautiful road to Casa Valentina (about 200 meters) with excellent views over the mountains . (We  will bring all your luggage up to your house for you)

The WWF recomends: Travel with trains and buses....So, come to Casa Valentina without your car!  


From Cortona there are excellent opportunities for cultural excursions in both Tuscany and Umbria. We are ready to help you plan your trips and outdoor activities such as olive picking and olive oil tasting, or a cooking course in Tuscan specialities.
