Award Winning Bed and Breakfast in Tuscany. Voted one of the top 10 B&Bs in Europe and N0.1 in Tuscany 2008 - Somewhere Special in Tuscany
Casa Portagioia is a small estate in Castiglion Fiorentino near Cortona Tuscany with five independent guest bedrooms for bed and breakfast - all with luxury bathrooms and two apartments which can accommodate two - four guests. Offering excellent privacy, a heated swimming pool and gorgeous scenery, it is perfect for a peaceful break in the countryside or to explore the delights of Tuscany and Umbria.
More important is the fact that we know how much planning goes into your holiday and that there is too long a space between vacations. Here at Casa Portagioia, relaxation is the keyword. We look after our guests every need, from a leisurely breakfast overlooking olive groves, helping arrange your day trips to the fabulous sites of Tuscany and Umbria - and when just a lazy day is planned, our heated pool with its gorgeous views of the Valle di Chio will get you ready for the various restaurants of Cortona, Arezzo and Castiglion Fiorentino. You may even be staying here when we offer our guests dinner (twice a week), a very relaxed five course freshly prepared menu and some very interesting Tuscan wines.
"A bed and breakfast in Tuscany that will make you relaxed the moment you enter their cypress tree-lined driveway - and one of the happy memories to take home along with all the Tuscan treasures you have seen" MB, New York.
The area: The main town is Castiglion Fiorentino, a medieval town with Etruscan heritage. From here you can visit Cortona and Arezzo which are about 15 minutes away or, well within an hours drive you are able to visit many Tuscan and Umbrian towns such as Florence, Siena, Assisi, the Chianti region, Montepulciano - to name but a few. There is also a train station at Castiglion with trains to Rome and Florence.
