Description

Borgo Antico is a beautiful farmhouse on the high hills that separate the green Valdichiana from the Tiber Valley, located on the border between Tuscany and Umbria. It is the ideal place for those who want to spend a relaxing holiday, in close contact with nature and far from the noise and bustle of the cities.
Moreover, thanks to its position, 600 m above sea level and the large stone walls, the house, even on the hottest summer days, guarantees a cool and comfortable temperature inside, especially on the ground floor.

The Etruscan town of Cortona in Tuscany and the village of Trestina in Umbria are both about 18 km away, while restaurants and small shops for basic necessities can be reached within 5 or 10 km.

You can spend your holiday days bathing in the swimming pool (size 6 x 12 m - depth 1.20-2.40 m, completely fenced in), playing table tennis and enjoying tasty lunches and dinners in the cool gazebo furnished with tables and chairs next to the barbecue and wood-burning oven. Even the youngest children will have fun on the swing and slide.

The house is well furnished with Tuscan style furniture.  Possibility to taste and buy excellent extra virgin olive oil, wine and other typical products. Since the house is located in a quite secluded position and in order not to miss a single minute of your holiday, for the day of arrival it is possible to request a shopping service with home delivery (to be agreed before arrival).

Siamo rimasti soddisfatti della casa e del servizio sia da parte vostra che dall'host della casa. Nulla da dire sulla pulizia, tutto perfetto.
Ci ha particolarmente soddisfatti facilità e trasparenza nei pagamenti e nella corrispondenza. Io tornerei volentieri in questa casa magari in un'altra stagione per sfruttare maggiormente lo spazio esterno.
Grazie e cordiali saluti.

Excellent villa where the pictures do not do justice for the environment and view. Everything has been kept in prime condition and suits perfectly a getaway and disconnect from stress.

 Jean-Luc (Belgium) - agosto 2022

Nous avons passé deux semaines dans le calme, la nature et la sérénité. Quel environnement! Nous ne regrettona absolument pas notre choix. Nous étions 10 adultes et 3 enfants et l'espace dans la maison est tout à fait approprié. Le temps nécessaire pour se rendre dans les magasins est d'environ 30/35 minutes mais nous faisions les provisions lors de la rentrée d'excursions, donc ce n'est pas véritablement un problème, juste une question d'organisation. Nous ne pouvons que conseiller cette location.
Si c'est le calme et le ressourcement que vous cherchez...faites-vous plaisir!

Posto un po' isolato ma bellissimo per una vacanza all' insegna del relax. Proprietario molto gentile e disponibile.

Das Haus von Stefano ist ein wahrer Traum! Wir haben schon viele Reisen als Gruppe (16 Personen) zusammen gemacht, aber das war eindeutig das beste Haus, das wir bisher hatten! Der Pool ist einfach riesig und in der Mitte schön tief und lässt daher keine Wünsche offen. Die Sitzecke fanden wir zuerst auf den Fotos nicht so toll, aber auch das war perfekt. Alle hatten genug Platz und nach Belieben Schatten und immer wehte eine angenehme Brise. Außerdem hatten wir einen guten Blick auf den Pool. Nicht zu nah und nicht zu weit weg. Das Haus war unglaublich sauber und gut eingerichtet. Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet und Stefano ist jederzeit bereit, etwas zu organisieren - z.B. Feuerholz für den tollen Pizzaofen. Einen Grill gibt es auch noch. Die Zimmer liegen zum großen Teil so, dass man nicht zu nahe aufeinanderklebt und sind darüber hinaus fast alle mit einem eigenen Badezimmer ausgestattet. Alle Zimmer sind gut zu belüften. Auch unter dem Dach ist die Hitze gut zu ertragen (immerhin 36 Grad). Alles ist in einem sehr guten Zustand und funktioniert. Waschmaschine und Spülmaschine sind auch vorhanden. Dann muss man noch den Blick und die unglaubliche Ruhe erwähnen. Man sieht soweit man schauen kann, fast nur grüne Wälder. Von der menschlichen Zivilisation hört man so gut wie nichts. Trotzdem fanden wir nicht, dass das Haus schlecht angebunden ist: Man braucht auf jeden Fall ein Auto, das ist klar. Die nächsten großen Supermärkte in Trestina sind in etwa 25 Minuten zu erreichen und die Straße dorthin ist ziemlich gerade (die anderen Straßen sind zum Teil recht kurvig). Wir haben jedenfalls viele tolle Ausflüge gemacht. Jederzeit wieder! Viele Grüße!

Really beautiful location with the pool overseeing the mountains. Very nice and helpful host Stefano. The house is really well equiped and has all you need. The only thing to bear in mind is very remote location from shops, restaurants etc. It is about 40 minutes away from Cortona through rural roads. But in exchange you get to spend great vacation in quiet surroundings.

 Fabio (Italia) - giugno 2021

Tre giorni da sogno!!! Il posto è molto isolato, ma questo lo rende ancora più speciale. La piscina, il barbecue, il forno a legna, la casa con tutti i confort ed una vista mozzafiato sulle colline umbre. Spero di riuscire a tornare. I padroni di casa sono super disponibili.

 Susanna (ITA) - luglio 2020

Siamo appena tornati da una splendida vacanza a Borgo Antico. Un posto spettacolare immerso nel verde. Il casolare è super rifornito, non manca niente. Stefano, il proprietario, è sempre disponibile e gentile. La piscina è ideale per rinfrescarsi. Una vacanza da rifare. Grazie Stefano

 Giorgia (Italia) - giugno 2020

Borgo antico è un luogo incantevole. Immerso nel verde, dotato dei comfort necessari, posizione invidiabile immersa nel verde. Ci torneremo senza dubbio.

Siamo stati benissimo posto favoloso e persone gentilissime. La location, un po' complicata da trovare ma immersa nel meglio che questo territorio offre, è esattamente come descritta. I gestori sono stati sempre molto disponibili

Perfect place to relax and enjoy family holiday

I'm really happy that we choose to rent Borgo Antico for our family in July 2019. We were traveling with a group of 13, and for us the villa was just perfect! There was plenty of space, bedrooms, bathrooms and the kitchen area were all functional and clean. Outdoor and the pool area were awesome, we spent almost all our time outside. The location was little far from city of Cortona, but the views were totally worth it. We also did many trips on towns/cities around the Tuscany, so even thought villa was little far away, it didn't bother us at all. Big thanks for owner(?) who kept the pool and outdoor areas in good condition! He was very kind and helpful. Also Elisa for Eurocasa was really helpful all the time and organized a perfect private wine tour for us, with in really fast schedule! All of our group would recommend this place with a 5 star!

Urlaub mit alten Freunden...

Tolle Landschaft, wunderschönes Grundstück, Schwimmen mit Aussicht. Küche ausgestattet für grosse Kochaktionen. Keine Einkaufsmöglichkeiten in der unmittelbaren Nähe. Auto wird leider gebraucht.

 Andrea (ITA) - aprile 2019

Abbiamo soggiornato a Borgo Antico per Pasqua in 16 persone. La location, un po' complicata da trovare ma immersa nel meglio che questo territorio offre, è esattamente come descritta: una vecchia casa colonica ristrutturata con maestria e capace di rendere comodo il soggiorno ad un gruppo numeroso con diversi bambini piccoli al seguito. L'area non è enorme ma con ogni confort, una vista bellissima e garantisce la tranquillità di non avere NESSUNO intorno. I gestori sono stati sempre molto disponibili, discreti e puntuali facendoci sentire benvenuti (e la crostata bigusto di benvenuto ha fatto nettamente la sua parte in questo). Se cercate un posto rilassante per tante persone avete trovato quello che fa per voi.

 Jean-Jacques (France) - agosto 2018 Très bien. Lieu très calme et très bien situé. (un seul inconvénient : un peu loin de Cortona) piscine très agréable et bien entretenue. Excellent accueil du propriétaire
 Jens (Denmark) - luglio 2018 Very high score! I will recommend the house to my friends!
 SILVIA (Deutschland) - agosto 2017 The house has been lovingly restored and has everything that allows a relaxing holiday. The rooms are very spacious and the bathrooms very well maintained. The outdoor areas are very spacious and the view is sensational - sunsets can be enjoyed to the fullest. The location is very secluded and ideal for those seeking peace and quiet who want to enjoy the house. Overall, the object is very, highly recommended.
 Pawel (Poland) - settembre 2016

Wonderful place!

Amazing, wondeful place! The caretaker is very nice person and a house and garden are full of silence, beautiful place with wonderful panoramic view, excellent pool and very tasteful, stylish equipment. We will be back here soon! :)
T. Schick (Poland) - luglio 2016

Wrócimy tu na pewno!

Swietne polozenie, ptaki budza rano, a swierszcze klada spac. Cudowny Steffano opiekuje sie nami dyskretnie i stara z calych sil. Chlód domu koi podczas upalu a jest cieply noca. Piekne przestrzenie w srodku i cisza za oknem. Wrócimy tu
 A. (Norway) - luglio 2015 We had the best time in Cortona !! We have 5 children and 6 adults who rented Borgo Antico in July. When we finally arrived (the directions were somewhat inaccurate) we were very pleasantly surprised. At the house we were warmly received by the house owner who showed us around the property. Everything was in top condition, the house, the outdoor areas and swimming pool. The owner could not speak any other language so we used "finger-language" and it went fine. The house is very nice with nice view and suited to us completely, we enjoyed ourselves with italiens food and drink. The owner of the house was present each morning and cleaned pool, water, flowers and cleaned, so everything was 100% until we got up at about 8:30. We went on to Sorrento after a week but could easily have been longer in Cortona. Borgo Antico we can safely recommend to anyone who wants to relax in the Italian mountains. Everything has worked very well so we are surely going to come again!
 Clara (Denmark) - giugno 2015 We had a great holiday - thanks for all the help. We did not go to Cortona much as it takes some time to get there. Therefore we drove mainly to the town to buy the things you could not get in the local supermarket. We thought it was an incredibly beautiful area and the view from the garden is absolutely fantastic. House more than lived up to our expectations - the standard was considerably higher than we expected. We particularly appreciated the very nice pool area where we spent most of the time when it was very hot. All in all a super experience that we hope to repeat again next year when we might need a bigger house :-).
