  • The villa was spectacular and it was so clean. The pool was immaculate. The view was breathtaking. Andrea was very helpful and informative about Cortona and the region. The winery tour he organized for our group of 14 was amazing. Marcella's cooking was mouth watering. We loved Villa Ruffignano and hope to return soon for another fabulous vacation. We enjoyed every minute of our stay.

  • Of the many rental houses we had in Italy, this exceptional casale was by far the cleanest and most tastefully restored! The 16th century villa has excellent furniture and lots of space. The large main kitchen invites to cook your own meals, instead of going to touristic restaurants. The owners/caretakers are the most lovely and friendly people. We enjoyed each others Italian meals and had very pleasant contacts with all family members, included grandma who treated us with produce from her garden; however, nobody was ever obtrusive. I loved the tranquillity and the breeze, which made hot days pleasantly warm. The gardens and the pool are constantly very very well kept. Twenty minutes drive from Cortona (which, by the way, is becoming more and more touristic): so, far enough from the madding crowd. Grazie tante, Marcella, Giancarlo, Andrea e nonna.
