Christmas in the villa
What a beautiful place to enjoy Christmas with family. The villa is beautiful, comfortable and has a well stocked kitchen with everything you could need. The views are amazing and we watched the New Year fireworks from the sitting room. Denise did an amazing job buying all of our groceries for our arrival. Mieke is a wonderful host - responsive and patient, answering all of our questions. We hope to come back in the summer one day.

Beautiful region, fantastic house
What a place. The photos do a good job at depicting how pretty the house is, full of old charm and remodelled for modern living. What the pictures don’t tell is how large the house is and how truly magnificent the views are. We particularly loved the breezy pergola for meals and hanging out and the pool deck. Owner and propery manager are lovely and easy to communicate with. The location is great too, a short distance to beautiful Cortona and easy day trips to Siena and Arezzo. Our group had a fantastic time and we highly recommend this property.

Gorgeous property in Tuscany.
The house is as-advertised and the location in Tuscany is ideal. We enjoyed a wonderful family holiday and thoroughly enjoyed Cortona and all that Tuscany has to offer. It was very easy to work with the owners, who are gracious. The house manager is lovely, but only speaks Italian so be prepared. Highly recommend Villa Caprile.

Tuscany at Its Best
This Villa is well cared for and managed. It is breathtaking and represents all that is Tuscan beauty. The rooms are simple yet elegant, the kitchen is well equipped, and the pool is clean and refreshing. Our family was able to relax and enjoy the amazing view each day. I hope to be able to return again to this wonderful place.

About the host

Hosted by Mieke

Host profile image
We are a Belgian family in love with Italy. Until a few years ago we traveled a lot and saw a lot of the world in addition to all regions of Italy. However, we then thought it was time to have our own place in Italy and we started looking for a house in the region of Tuscany or Umbria.

We searched for a long time and finally found Fondo Caprile, a house that fully met our expectations: Quiet - it is located on a hill and is protected from external noise by natural barriers. A beautiful sight - The sight of Cortona in the distance is fantastic in any daylight. A beautiful swimming pool and above all a house with character. Fondo Caprile certainly has the latter in abundance. The house was renovated by the previous owners with very high-quality materials, while the authentic character was completely preserved.

The fact that there is a large olive grove (200 olive trees) and a small vineyard only adds to the pleasure of being in Italy. This year we picked olives and had our own olive oil made.

We also wanted to live in the vicinity of a traditional village or town. That as well we found with Fondo Caprile - Cortona is about 10 minutes away with a large number of good restaurants. Camucca is 15 minutes away and there we find supermarkets, DIY stores, etc...
And then of course we have all the towns and cities of Tuscany and Umbria, with Sienna, Perugia and Arezzo as the closest ones. But even Florence is easily reachable by train or by car.

The country road to Fondo Caprile serves just two villas, adding to its peaceful location. The road to get there can be a bit intimidating the first time, but we've driven up and down with all types of vehicles (from very small to large with a trailer) and we've never had any problems.
