The sun-soaked hill towns of central Italy offer what to many is the quintessential Italian experience. Slow down and enjoy the pace of the countryside so you can savor the delights that this region offers. Made famous in the novel and film Under the Tuscan Sun, Cortona is rich with historic churches including the Duomo, Cortonas Renaissance cathedral, 16th-century farmhouses and atmospheric enoteche serving famously tasty wines and homemade pasta. Stroll through town and you'll be rewarded with fabulous views of the countryside along the medieval town walls.

Enjoy a 7-night stay for up to four people in a 2-bedroom, 3-bath villa in the Cortona countryside. Surrounded by olive groves and overlooking the peaceful valley of Valdichiana, youll experience the best of both worlds with an ideal location for a private getaway yet still within a short distance to the town of Cortona. The outdoor terrace offers beautiful views and a perfect spot for barbecues and dining al fresco.  The garden and private swimming pool allow guests to relax under the Tuscan sun. Learn about the seduction of truffles at this beautiful medieval hamlet set in the Tuscan woods as you join expert hunters with their trained dogs who will show you how to find and dig up truffles.  After, you will visit a small truffle museum at a local farm and learn how to use and preserve the precious produce.  Savor a marvelous 4-course lunch with local truffle-based dishes and delicious wines all prepared and served by the farmhouse owner.
