Only 500 metres away from the centre of the ancient Etruscan town of Cortona, panoramically located in the green hills dotted with olive trees “Casale Grifalco” is the ideal destination for those wishing to enjoy a quiet and relaxing holiday in the heart of Tuscany.

The property consists of an old stone master’s house that served as far back as in the 1700s as a stage post called the “Locanda del Girifalco” (as is witnessed by an old coat of arms on the façade) that provided shelter to wayfarers and two further independent apartments converted from an old adjoining stone farmhouse. Recent restoration work was carried out on the house with great care for detail and all rooms have been finely furnished with antique pieces. The master’s house is arranged over two floors: the ground floor comprises a large living-dining room with open fireplace, entrance, a toilet room, and a live-in kitchen.

The upper floor consists of three double-bedrooms, one single bedroom, three bathrooms, a living room with open fireplace. The house has a large private garden. The house is equipped with independent heating and satellite TV.

The two apartments consist each of two double bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living-dining room, kitchen. Both are equipped with independent heating and private garden. Pool size: 4x8 metres. A short walk will take guests into the centre of Cortona, an ancient Etruscan town with a rich historic and cultural heritage still encircled by massive Etruscan walls and dotted with beautiful churches, museums and archaeological sites.
