Gracious hosts,beautiful surroundings,great location

Our stay was most enjoyable! Caroline and Pino the owners were always available to help with directions or translating! The grounds were beautiful and the garden fresh vegetables were wonderful! Great location, close to everything you need but far away enough to feel away from it all. We hope to return one day soon! Thomas and Deborah Benz St, Charles, Illinois USA

Gorgeous farmhouse

We had a wonderful week at Caroline and Pino's mill in Tuscany. Antonio and Simone were delightful, and were generous with information and recommendations about the local area. One of the key features that make this property so attractive is its proximity to local villages and shops, whilst giving you the sense that you are secluded and miles away from anywhere.

Perfect!

My husband and I were looking for a place central to Tuscany and Umbria, where we could visit sites for day trips. We had been to Cortona but didn't want to be in the town, rather a quiet countryside setting was more to our liking. We chose the one bedroom apartment, Molinello. It was perfect - comfortable seating, a well equipped kitchen, a large bedroom with a private patio in back, and a washing machine in the bathroom. The unit retained all the charm of it's history, with modern comforts. Because Molino di Bordone is in the vast, flat valley, we were able to take nice walks every evening. Pino told us about longer walks that we tried and enjoyed. The family, parents and adult children, couldn't have been nicer, there when we had questions to give us ideas and suggestions, but allowing us our privacy as well. We stayed 12 nights and could have stayed longer. Loved it!

Lovely and peaceful!

Molino di Bordone was a lovely Tuscan farmyard tucked away in the countryside. The property was lovely and Pino and Caroline were excellent hosts. We loved exploring the property and our 4-year old son especially enjoyed the trampoline and playing with the dogs. The property was located close to Cortona, so we could easily get into town if we wanted to. We definitely recommend this property to others.

Honeymoon Holiday

My wife and I were very pleased with the accomodations during our brief 3 night stay at Il Molinello. From being pleasantly greeted upon arrival to the shared dinner at a local pizza shop to the helpful advice on "best places" to visit in the region to the genuine goodbyes before our departure. The property is beautifully surrounded by mountains and although our stay was during the beginning of spring (pre-bloom) it was enjoyable to witness a few of the flowers on the property begin to bud and come alive. Our stay here was the last leg of our honeymoon. Our honeymoon consisted of 3 nights in Venice, 3 nights in Florence and 3 nights here. Of the 3 places that we stayed we both agreed that Il Molinello was our favorite. We had wished we would have booked longer at this rental property. It was peaceful and we were able to relax and wind down before departing back home. Thank you Pino and Caroline for being such great hosts and for helping to make our stay reminiscent of home sweet home! Sincerely, Travis & Julia

About the host

Hosted by Caroline Nobile

Hello, I'm Caroline, born in England and 100% in love with Italy.

I love travelling and everything connected to it. This is one of the reasons why I speak 7 languages!!

My family is anglo-italian. We personally welcome guests at their self-catering rental apartments at Molino di Bordone, an historic flour mill dated back to the 1600, and we live on the propriety.

Hospitality is my passion and my job. And at il Molino everyday is like a dream come true. People from all around the world that just want to enjoy the real lifestyle of the destination they are visiting, living an authentic getaway!

I'll be delighted to answer all your questions, pointed out the best visits for you according to your tastes and needs.

I look forward to welcome you at il Molino di Bordone!

Why they chose this property

When we stood in the Cortona’s driveway we knew it was right for us. At the time it was still a ruin and had been empty for over 30 years!
But we were drawn by the peacefulness of the place. There were no roads nearby making it safe for the children to play freely.

What makes this property unique

We love the 360 degree views of wooded hills, vineyards, olive groves, lake and stream running through.

At the house there is the lovely big swimming pool with loungers and grassy areas for sunbathing and reading. For families with children there are soccer & volley ball nets, a croquet lawn, swings and climbing frame, bikes of various sizes and a trampoline, used not just for jumping but also star gazing at night – we have no light pollution.

We are walking distance (1km) from 2 coffee bars, food market, 2 restaurants, pizzeria, beauty salon, hairdressers, hardware store, clothing shop. We are only minutes from the historic town of Cortona and yet immersed in tranquility.

You can walk, run or bike for miles and not need to touch the asphalt.
