ED Refnr. 2977365

Agriturismo Podere Cortilla - L'Angolo Podere Cortilla is situated at an altitude of 250 metres on a hillside in the beautiful landscape of the Era Valley near the historic Etruscan town of Volterra (6 km). The surrounding area is one of the most beautiful landscapes in Tuscany with its typical hill formations and characteristic vegetation. The country house is surrounded by more than 23 hectares of open countryside: woods, meadows, olive groves, vineyards and cereal fields. Here you will find an ideal place for a peaceful holiday in a still very unspoilt natural environment. With around 11,000 inhabitants, Volterra offers a comprehensive infrastructure, supermarkets, specialised shops, boutiques, restaurants of all kinds and price ranges. Cities such as Florence, Lucca, Pisa, Siena and San Gimigniano are between 30 and 80 kilometres away and the Mediterranean is only 40 kilometres away. There are no fewer than 15 golf courses in Tuscany.

La Galleria has its own terrace with table and chairs on the rear façade with beautiful views of the Tuscan countryside. A highlight is the large pool (14 x 7 m) with equipment and storage room and comfortable sun loungers and parasols and a spacious terrace with views of the wonderful countryside. The carport with 8 parking spaces has a large photovoltaic system on the roof, which contributes to our energy requirements. The garden and lawn areas around the house allow you to move freely and settle down with seating and loungers. A barbecue invites you to rustic barbecue evenings, where you can also have breakfast in the shade of vines, sit together or read a book. A table tennis table allows for sporting activities.

At 56 square metres, La Galleria is a beautiful and spacious flat for two people. It is accessed via an external stone staircase. The flat consists of a large room below the roof structure, which is almost 6 metres high. Halfway up there is an open gallery with a double bed (orthopaedic), wardrobe and other furniture. On the entrance level there is a large living room with a suite, dining table and open fireplace, as well as a kitchen area, bathroom and a small entrance hall. The flat has a small terrace overlooking a marvellous Tuscan panorama. The furnishings are authentically Tuscan. The kitchen furniture is made of solid chestnut wood with worktops made of real granite. The equipment includes a dishwasher, a cooker with 4 ceramic hobs and an oven, a fridge, a coffee machine and a toaster as well as a hairdryer. There is air conditioning and heating and a constant central hot water supply as well as satellite TV with numerous German programmes and a stereo system with CD player. A washing machine is centrally available.
