Ein wunderschönes Haus das Atmosphäre ausstrahlt. Der Garten ist auch sehr schön angelegt auch wenn wir ihn nicht nutzen konnten, da wir fast 2 Wochen Regen hatten. Die Vermieter sind sehr nett und bemüht alle Wünsche zu erfüllen.

[English translation courtesy of Easy Reserve] A beautiful house that shines with a special atmosphere. The garden is also very nice even though we could not use it because we had almost two weeks rain. The owners are very nice and tried hard to fulfill all wishes.

Staying at Il Calcinaio was a definite highlight of our trip to Italy. Our family of five, with three young children, was very comfortable here and the location was perfect for exploring Tuscany. The house has been remodeled to a very high standard and the yard, view, olive trees, church, and town of Cortona made for a perfect setting. Many thanks--

Calcinaio has been beautifully and artfully restored and we had a very comfortable stay. Home-made jam, a bottle of wine and a magnificent bowl of tomatoes awaited us on arrival. There is a little traffic noise and the driveways take a bit of manouvering but the quality of the property overrides all of this. Turn the fountain on and relax out by the pool with a good drink!

In general, this is a fabulous central location for the region and a lovely villa. The house, pool and garden were delightful, well stocked and comfortable. The air conditioning units in the bedrooms are a huge advantage in the summer months. However, both driveway entrances/exits to the villa are unpaved, steep, and dangerously located at blind intersections on the main and very busy road to Cortona. We did feel like we were taking a serious risk everytime we had to drive in or out of the villa, and we are experienced drivers in Italy. It is also unrealistic to expect to walk anywhere from the villa, except perhaps on the main road a short distance to a bus stop. There is also a significant difference between the two bedrooms -- one clearly a master bedroom, with ample closets, dressers, side-tables, etc and a master bathroom next to it. The other is clearly a second bedroom with two twin beds, a small closet but no dresser or other storage. The second full bathroom is located downstairs and again, has no storage cabinets, counter space. For two couples sharing the villa the inequities of the space might be problematic. For a family with children (who are old enough to safely navigate a steep open stairway to the second floor), its probably a great set-up.
