The Hotel Villa di Piazzano is a manor house of the 1400s located in the countryside just outside the town of Cortona, a town on the border between Tuscany and Umbria made famous by the American writer Frances Mayes with her book and later the movie, Under the Tuscan Sun. The Villa was acquired some years ago by an Italian-Australian family with a tradition in hotels, the Wimpole family, which carefully transformed the Villa into an exclusive hotel, with that warm and intimate atmosphere that only a family run property can provide.

The Villa is surrounded by a garden of 1 hectare, with a beautiful formal Italian garden, a spectacular entrance with a cypress lined driveway, a large swimming pool and private parking for guests.

The rooms are all in perfect harmony with a noble residence, whilst having all the modern comforts, including air-conditioning.
The windows open onto magnificent views of the surrounding hills, fields which change colour with every season and a lush garden unleashing pleasant scents all year round.A stay at the Villa di Piazzano is an experience which stimulates all of the five senses, from the sight of the beautiful Tuscan countryside to the tranquillity interrupted only by the singing of birds.
The garden which surrounds the ancient residence is not only an oasis of peace, but a beautiful ancient park which is protected by the Environmental Authorities because of its beauty and historic importance. Silence reigns interrupted only by the sounds of birds and nature.
The menu of the restaurant changes with the seasons and offers dishes which are traditional of this region, based on local and genuine products. The hotel also has a bar facility which is transferred under the shaded terrace in the summer monthsThe intense scents of linden trees, Italian oaks and jasmine, as well as those of wild roses, lavender and peonies sweeten the days of guests laying by the pool or under the shade of the century old oaks.
Far away from the chaos of the city the body and soul regenerate opening themselves to sensations which seem to have been forgotten.
