This charming holiday apartment lies in the heart of Cortona, ideal for a romantic getaway. The terrace boasts lovely views of the surrounding landscape, though the outdoor space is overlooked by nearby buildings, so it doesn't feel the most private. Your host can provide a free high chair here and little ones will love the garden, though the interior decor is quite traditional and won't be for everyone. You'll find public parking a short walk away, but Cortona's mouth-watering restaurants and picturesque churches are reached easily on foot, so you won't need a car.

Home truths

    Free public parking might be available nearby, but it's a small walk away from the building.

    Your host can provide a free high chair if you're travelling with little ones.

    Well-behaved pets may be welcome to join you here.

    The building's front entrance is on a narrow road with no pathway, so children will need supervision here.

    This home is in an apartment building, so there is a chance you might hear some noise from neighbours during your stay.

    The garden is overlooked by the neighbouring building, so doesn't feel the most private.

    The traditional decor might not be to everyone's taste. It feels a little dated in parts.

    Your host will greet you when you first arrive.
