Papavero
This estate consists of a Farmhouse and a Leopodina (a name given to farmhouses built around the age of Grandduke Leopold in the 1700s) built in the 18th century as well as a large park featuring a stunning swimming-pool with whirlpool bath that will invite you to spend pleasant and relaxing hours in one of Tuscany’s most enchanting settings. You will be able to dine in a kitchen that used to accommodate over thirty people , sleep in the bedroom converted form the old cattle shed where farmers used to spend sleepless nights watching over their cows delivering their calves, sleep in the "tracantone" bed, sleep in the bedroom located in the Loggia or in the bedroom converted from the old dove-tower, a shelter where doves where bred by farmers.
Walls are decorated with paintings and pictures but the best images you will be able to behold will come, as if by magic, from the windows opening onto stunning natural settings such as the dark mountains hanging over Cortona, the sweet and seamless country-side and the noble profile of Cortona…. Spacious interiors, rooms decorated and furnished with extreme care for detail, typical vaulted or brickwork ceilings, handmade cotto tiles laid with narrow joints as was once the custom in Tuscany all contribute to making this place unique and cosy. All apartments feature a fully equipped kitchen with electric oven, microwave oven, dish-washer, toaster. All apartments are equipped with independent heating, air conditioning, satellite TV, safe deposit box.
