Tuscany Holiday Villa Arezzo Selene Winery Cortona

One Bedroom Ground Floor Cottage Cortona

Set in a beautiful and tranquil position close to the beautiful medieval town of Cortona, Selene Winery is a 19th Century cottage beautifully restored and surrounded by extensive grounds with gorgeous gardens and secluded areas ideal for relaxing and dining al fresco. In a panoramic position below the villa is the large private swimming pool overlooking the valley beyond.

Situated in the valley below the town of Cortona proudly perched on the hillside just 1 km away, Villa Selene was originally the country residence of a local noble family. It is composed of a 19th Century villa, No 371 Selene 6, and two separated cottages fully restored, Selene Winery, described here, and No 372 Selene Lemon. In the grounds of the estate is a lovely swimming pool (9m x 4m) enjoying a pretty view of the countryside and surrounded by lawns and mature gardens with majestic cypress trees, colourful plants and secluded spots for relaxing and enjoying the peace and tranquillity.

Selene Winery originally housed the family’s precious wine stores and has now been carefully restored and furnished in the same traditional style of the main villa. The unusual elongated living room has a kitchen area, a dining area with table and chairs, a comfortable sitting area with double sofa bed and has a light and airy atmosphere thanks to the patio doors which open directly onto the terrace at the front of the cottage. There is a spacious bedroom also opening onto the front terrace and a shower room.

Selene Winery is immersed in lovely mature grounds with many secluded spots relaxing in the garden or by the private pool (9m x 4m), set in a charming position below and with lovely views of the valley and medieval Cortona on the hillside.

Cortona, just 1 km away and accessible on foot is a charming town. Rich in history, it is a real joy to explore and has a variety of shops, and excellent restaurants. Within easy driving distance are many of the finest places of interest of Tuscany, including Siena, Montepulciano, and Pienza. Lake Trasimeno and the Umbrian towns of Perugia and Assisi can also be easily reached.

The whole estate, composed by Selene 6, Selene Lemon and Selene Winery, is a perfect choice for a group travelling together as in total accommodates up to ten persons (plus two more extra persons on request), yet the individual accommodation in Selene Winery, suitable for two persons (plus two more extra persons on request), offers discreet privacy to guests. The estate’s swimming pool is exclusive only to guests booking the entire property.
