Beautiful town, lovely house, great hosts

We loved staying at Il Roseto and we loved Cortona. Fernando’s son communicated really well with us and did a superb job of getting us to the house, driving our car through the narrow streets. Lovely touches like fresh dressing gowns and something to eat and drink, this was an excellent experience and we would hope to repeat it again one day.

wunderbarer Urlaub in Cortona

Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Urlaub über Silvester in Cortona. Die Ferienwohnung war gepflegt, groß und die Lage in der Altstadt super. Cortona ist eine sehr lebendige Kleinstadt und als Ausgangspunkt für Toskana-Urlaube geeignet. Der Kontakt mit dem Vermieter war sehr angenehm und er ist jederzeit bei Fragen erreichbar. Einen Parkplatz für das Auto findet mach außerhalb der Altstadt ganz in der Nähe (5 min zu Fuß entfernt). Nur die Ausleuchtung und das Lampenlicht in der Ferienwohnung sind für unseren Eindruck etwas zu gedämpft und schwach gehalten. Doch im Sommer sicher anders als im Winter.

Cortona for 5 nights

The property was built in 1500 but updated recently. It definitely has its quirks related to gas and electricity. More written instructions in the home would be useful. The home is spacious with the exception of the galley style kitchen. There is a lovely courtyard that seems to be very unique to properties within the walls of Cortona. There are a couple of nice walks around Cortona. You are not too far from Sienna for a day trip.

cortona stay

we had anticipated our daughter and family being with us but there was a family emergency and they couldn't come, so the house was way too big for my wife and I. also, she was disappointed that there were so few windows so the place seemed dark all the time and the three levels especially with the living and dining on the bottom level was inconvenient. Had a great time in Cortona though.

About the host

Hosted by Fernando Donati

I grew up in this very house in the centre of Cortona and have always loved it with all of my heart. After a short time in which nobody has lived in here, I've decided that I had to invest in my 'sweet home' and completely restored it, starting from its basement. At the end of all the works that were done I was just amazed the first time I re-entered it. 'That's the right place to let other people experience what it means to live Cortona and its life!'. I hope you'll enjoy all that my town, Cortona, has to offer and I am sure you'll want to keep coming back too! Fernando, Cortona, Italy

Why they chose this property

'... mother of Troy and grandmother of Rome' (Virgil - Aeneid III and IV)

'... From Cortona there is a magnificent view; one’s gaze loses itself in the distance...' (François Mitterand, 1987)

'... a marvellous city where everything speaks of God – the nature, the mountains, the woods...' (John Paul II, 1993)

'... No map planner would describe it thus, but it is fascinating' (Frances Mayes - 'Under the Tuscan Sun', 1997)

What makes this property unique

Upon arriving we were greeted by the owner's son and wife and escorted through the narrow cobblestone streets of Cortona to our new home for the week. The green door in the wall gave no indication of the quaint courtyard and substantial house that awaited us. This had been the owner’s family home and it was evident by the sturdy furniture and fully stocked cabinets. Everything you needed to make your stay comfortable was supplied. It was more spacious than we envisioned and the location couldn’t have been more ideal. The main piazza was a short stroll away but far enough to make for a peaceful evening. The owners were warm and welcoming and always a phone call away. We had locked ourselves out one evening and a relative happily came to our rescue. Our departure date fell onto a holiday and after returning our car the day before we realized bus service wasn’t running on the holiday. The same relative happily picked us up at the crack of dawn to give us a lift to the train station. We have already recommended Il Roseto to friends and would love to stay again when we return to Italy.
