Cortona Resort-Le Terre Dei Cavalieri

This is beautiful property in a stunning location. Our room was spacious and spotlessly clean, with lovely views of the Tuscan countryside. The bed was very comfortable with a nice firm mattress, shower was great and nice big towels. The pool area also took advantage of the amazing views. Staff were friendly and breakfast offered an excellent selection. We were only staying one night and hoped to eat at the restaurant, but unfortunately we were staying on a Sunday and the restaurant is closed on Sundays. Since there is nowhere else in walking distance this was really disappointing. The lady who booked us in and told us was very apologetic, but that said, we may have considered booking elsewhere had we known. Since the hotel was so lovely I have not reduced the overall rating, but I would respectfully suggest that it be made clear to guests who book for a Sunday and they are advised about the restaurant closure, in view of the remoteness of the hotel.

Siamo stati ospiti di questa struttura magnifica. Elegante e curata. La stanza “Classic” era spaziosa e confortevole. Abbiamo utilizzato la piscina e cenato la sera. Anche la cucina ci ha sorpreso positivamente. Tutto buonissimo, cucinato con cura e con prodotti di qualità. Nonostante ci fosse un evento prenotato e gli spazi all’esterno fossero tutti occupati, hanno allestito un tavolo solo per noi due in un angolo silenzioso e romantico. Non posso che essere d’accordo con le tante 5 stelle attiviste a questa struttura.

Bellissima struttura immersa nelle campagne nelle vicinanze do Cortona, in una posizione comoda per visitare Arezzo, Perugia e Lago Trasimeno. Le camere sono molto pulite e recentemente ristrutturate. Il personale tutto molto cordiale e disponibile. È disponibile una bella piscina in cui viene servito anche un pranzo veloce e l'aperitivo. Il ristorante offre piatti della cucina tradizionale buonissimi e di alta qualità. Sicuramente ci torneremo.

Wij gingen voor de zoveelste keer. Opnieuw zijn we heel tevreden. Vriendelijk ontvangst en de eigenaars zijn nog steeds zeer begaan. Hun team werkt hard en blijft relatief identiek. Het restaurant is schitterend en de chef overtreft alle verwachtingen. Zijn gerechten zijn een Michelin ster waard. Inspecteurs van Michelin, ga ter plaatse! We hebben al terug geboekt voor volgend jaar!

Ancienne ferme dans la campagne de Cortona. Chemin d'accès terre et cailloux épouvantable, succession de nids de poules. Chambre au RC, sombre, sans vue, pas de fenêtres, mais des fenestrons en hauteur. Confort minimum rustique. Aucune photo de cette chambre sur le site, mais photos flatteuses d'autres chambres qui ne correspondent pas à celle-ci. Joli jardin, pas visible de la chambre. Salle de bain avec douche à jets “hydromassage” prévue dans le prix de la chambre lors de la réservation, que nous avions choisie pensant nous relaxer. Elle ne fonctionnait pas. Nous l’avons signalé. Un technicien est venu pour confirmer qu’elle était hors d’usage. J'ai indiqué que le prix était fixé avec cet équipement, le propriétaire s’est énervé disant que la “douchette” marchait, et pour le prix on verrait… Nous avons eu un petit rabais sur le prix, mais l’inconfort était là. Petit déjeuner classique, moyen, produits industriels, jus de fruit, pain de mie, gâteau très sucrés à la confiture, jambon, pas de fruits frais de saison. Le restaurant propose une carte fixe, aucun produits frais : tomate, salade, melon en mai…des plats très compliqués avec sauce à la réglisse, cannelle ? Prix élevés : pour deux 95€ pour deux entrées, saucisson/jambon, deux steaks avec pomme de terre, deux verres de vin et deux desserts. Un dessert au chocolat sans chocolat avec trois lamelles devant peser 20 grammes mais proposé à 9 € ! Portions moyennes, et insipides. Nous pensions dîner là les autres soirs mais pour ce prix nous avons trouvé beaucoup mieux ailleurs. Ce séjour n’a pas été confortable comme nous l’espérions,

What all the previous reviews have said is true about this magical farmhouse. We stayed just one night, which was a Sunday on our way to Rome and we were just one of the few guests there. When we arrived, though, there were two different Baptismal lunch parties being held which were quite festive and loud that went on into the early evening hours. When we attempted to check there was an older woman who happened to be the owner of the beautiful estate in the reception area on the phone and her demeanor was one of annoyance at either of us interrupting her or the large noisy groups in the restaurant area. Either way, she called over a charming younger woman who checked us in. We never saw the owner again, but her staff was perfectly charming and helpful in our short stay. The location is perfect down on the plains of Tuscany with Cortona looming over head on the mountain. It was a welcome respite from the crowds we had just encountered in Venice and Florence, and we enjoyed walking out into the countryside.
