Torretta is a splendid antique property, located on the top of a nice hill next to the Medieval town of Cortona. Being surrounded by oak-trees and olive-trees, you can appreciate the Tuscan country side. What makes the property unique is, on one side, it's splendid panoramic position overlooking the entire Valdichiana valley, and on the other, the circular tower with a roof made of stone tiles built in the 16th century, which through the ages has been transformed into a windmill. The country house built in the 18th century has recovered its beautiful antique splendour thanks to the accurate restoration of the owners, who found the perfect balance between the old and the new, rendering your stay as pleasant as possible. Casale La Torretta is an unique and maybe even magical, where you can enjoy an unforgettable and certainly splendid and relaxing holiday.

The villa itself was beautiful, clean, and wonderfully equipped. The view was a pleasure every day. Our property manager, Stephano, was helpful and responsive. The isolated location was actually not a problem as we had a car and the drive to Cortona was not onerous. A grocery store was also nearby. It was the perfect setting for a once-in-a-lifetime family experience.
4.0 / 10.0
The villa was lovely, and our property manager was very attentive. The villa itself was very comfortable, bedrooms were clean and neat. The bathrooms were adequate with clean towels and great hot water. The kitchen was well equipped, definitely could use a larger coffee pot. The outdoor space is beautiful, the pool is well maintained.There is a washer but no dryer.The property is a bit remote, on the side of a mountain you need to drive everywhere. The house was not equipped with flashlights or lanterns or candles which we needed when we lost power for 36 hours. The property manager did bring candles but we needed more. Eventually we also had no water, so we decided to leave and go to a hotel in Cortona for the remainder of our trip.

We had a wonderful week in this villa. The house is beautifully restored, the garden splendid, the poolside wonderful and Emma Villas looked after us exceptionally well. The Location was very close to Cortona which has lots of shops and restaurants, including shops for wonderful local produce if you want to use the good kitchens provided in the house. We found the local people in Cortona friendly and open, which was great. The structure was really perfect. It had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. It was spacious yet felt very cozy.

The house is made for a good size family, the pool is simply a dream, the garden huge and meticulous mantained, the location on the hill provides privacy and a stunning view and Cortona and surroundings gave us lots of options to explore the tuscan charm. We booked a cooking class with emma villas and was very funny and cute. Very pretty place!
