Villa Baldelli

The five senses awaken as soon as one proceeds between green lawns and splendid plants along the avenue that leads to the front of this marvelous country house that dates back to the 17th century and has taken its name from the Cortonese family who, for many years, made it their summer residence.

A meticulous restoration has preserved its true character and fine original architectural elements, combining the elegance of the original building with all the comfort, services and facilities of a sound hotel tradition.

The grounds host an elegant swimming pool for relaxation, a spacious patio surrounded by majestic ancient oak trees, vineyards and olive groves, and a charming well in working order.

Whether guests occupy the rooms found in the main country house or those located in the annex building, their need for peace will be guaranteed and the rooms have views of the Tuscan hills and the typical scents of the Cortonese countryside.

The doors of the elegant main house open into the communal areas, featuring stone fireplaces and original terracotta floors, typical of the local architecture. Here guests can relax and read, or chat as they sip a drink. The curtains and soft carpets that furnish the hall echo the muted architectural tones, and elements from sixteenth century altars add a particularly original decorative touch. A stone staircase rises to the next floors where a number of the 15 rooms are located, furnished with valuable antique furniture belonging to the previous owners. The accommodation comprises 5 junior suites, 5 deluxe rooms, and 5 classic rooms.

Other rooms have been created in the adjacent annex building, each different in shape, dimensions and furnishings, but all decorated with valuable pieces of antique furniture and tastefully coordinated soft furnishings that add to their charm and atmosphere. Rooms of all types are equipped with satellite TV, minibar, safe-deposit box, Internet connection and large bathrooms featuring either a hydro massage bathtub or shower.

Villa Baldelli is the perfect solution for anyone choosing this select accommodation for its location and the various opportunities the area offers: an unusual archaeological itinerary, stirring horseback riding through woodland, and the pleasure of personally witnessing the marvels of art.
