Located in a pleasant countryside, the charming village on the border of Tuscany and Umbria, between two oases of great environmental importance, Lake Trasimeno (Umbria) and Lake Montepulciano (Tuscany) enshrines a true gem of simple tranquillity, the Villa Cozzano farm-holiday. This haven of peace and quiet is girded by olive groves, vineyards and pines, all parts of the estate.
A typical little country church in the village is connected with the religious legend of the “teardrops of the Madonna of Cozzano”. Local lore, as remembered by some peasant families who once dwelt in the Villa Cozzano farmhouse, claims that the image shed real tears. An 18th century farmhouse, classified “an isolated cultural asset”, houses the concern. Loving renovation has breathed new life into the building: capacious apartments, ancient timber beams, old clay-brick arches and original furnishings in elegant period style. Five apartments (70-80 m 2) have their own entrance and consist of sleeping accommodation for 4-5 persons: a roomy sitting-room, a dining-room with kitchenette, a sizable double bedroom, single bedrooms and a bathroom with shower. Another apartment on the ground floor (50 m 2), again with an independent entrance, can house 3 persons: a living-room with kitchenette reached by a panoramic terrace, a double and a single bedroom, a bathroom with shower.
Villa Cozzano, at 320 m a.s.l. lies at easy distance from towns and cities of great historical and cultural importance: Siena, Arezzo, Orvieto, Montepulciano, Cortona, Perugia, Assisi, Florence and Rome.
For one’s leisure: a swimming-pool, table-tennis, mountain bikes for the panoramic routes in the vicinity, a children’s playground, and facilities for tennis and golf enthusiasts nearby. The farmyard contains an Etruscan tomb, used in the past by the peasants as a granary.
