Casa Vinalia: Etruscan paradise
Cortona, where life is made. Piazzas, wine, food and good times, great times. We came for a couple of years and stayed for 11. We built this place for us, for our family, for our friends and for you. We want to share Cortona as much as we want to keep it for ourselves. A cosy home, a place to share meals outdoors, a beautiful view to wake up to everyday, the ever changing valley allows you to stare and wonder for hours. We hope you feel as welcome in our place as we have been made to feel.
