Cortona Resort-Le Terre Dei Cavalieri

What all the previous reviews have said is true about this magical farmhouse. We stayed just one night, which was a Sunday on our way to Rome and we were just one of the few guests there. When we arrived, though, there were two different Baptismal lunch parties being held which were quite festive and loud that went on into the early evening hours. When we attempted to check there was an older woman who happened to be the owner of the beautiful estate in the reception area on the phone and her demeanor was one of annoyance at either of us interrupting her or the large noisy groups in the restaurant area. Either way, she called over a charming younger woman who checked us in. We never saw the owner again, but her staff was perfectly charming and helpful in our short stay. The location is perfect down on the plains of Tuscany with Cortona looming over head on the mountain. It was a welcome respite from the crowds we had just encountered in Venice and Florence, and we enjoyed walking out into the countryside.

The combination of rustic, historical charm with modern amenities, the incredibly helpful and personable staff and wonderful food made this one of our favorite stays ever. Very convenient to a multitude of locations in Tuscany and Umbria. A quiet, peaceful setting with many historic and iconic cities to explore close-by.

Le Terre dei Cavalieri will forever be my favorite hotel experience abroad and a definite recommendation for anyone looking for accommodations in the area. Marco and his staff were so attentive, friendly, helpful, and truly helped me to feel at home. The grounds are beautiful and well kept, and the rooms were clean, comfortable, and cool. We had access to other amenities I wasn't expecting in such a quaint spot - fast wifi, outlet converters, impressive water pressure... You will not be disappointed with your stay here!!

We had an incredible time at Le Terre dei Cavalieri and we didn’t want to leave! We were there for a close friend’s wedding, and our stay will be a lifelong memory for all of us in attendance. Marco and his staff are friendly, warm, and so helpful. The grounds are stunning, the accommodations are beautiful (and comfortable), and the food is amazing. This was the highlight of our entire trip to Italy!

Siamo stati ospiti di questa struttura magnifica. Elegante e curata. La stanza “Classic” era spaziosa e confortevole. Abbiamo utilizzato la piscina e cenato la sera. Anche la cucina ci ha sorpreso positivamente. Tutto buonissimo, cucinato con cura e con prodotti di qualità. Nonostante ci fosse un evento prenotato e gli spazi all’esterno fossero tutti occupati, hanno allestito un tavolo solo per noi due in un angolo silenzioso e romantico. Non posso che essere d’accordo con le tante 5 stelle attiviste a questa struttura.

Buoni gli antipasti ma il risotto di primo ha fatto star male la persona con cui ero lì a cena. Personale gentile ma poco professionale: avevamo prenotato ma non si erano segnati la prenotare e hanno dovuto aggiungere un tavolo al centro della terrazza.
