Campoleone Villas with Pool
Description
If you book a holiday at Casale Aiola you will find yourself immersed in a modern farmhouse and forestry farm, surrounded by greenery and set in the total tranquillity of the hills on the border between Tuscany and Umbria, among age-old woods and picturesque valleys. Casale Aiola is an old stone farmhouse divided into two parts. In one part of the house lives the owner who, with his discreet presence, will be a sure reference point for any need.
The farmhouse is located about 25 km from the beautiful Cortona, in Tuscany and about 15 km from the village of Trestina, in Umbria. You can do your shopping in either Cortona or Trestina, both of which have shops, supermarkets and services.
From here you have easy access to green Umbria, with its small villages nestled in the lush hills and bucolic landscapes of Lake Trasimeno, Perugia is only 60 km away.
Similarly, once you have reached Cortona, the splendid towns and cities of southern Tuscany will open up for you to discover. From Cortona to the farmhouse the road is perhaps a little long, even though it is all paved. But once you are there you will be rewarded with the absolute tranquillity of the place.
In our opinion Casale Aiola is definitely suitable for groups of families with children. The large green space around the house is perfect for the little ones to run and play in the middle of nature. Also available, in front of the house, is a children's swimming pool (size m. 4x8 - depth 0.60 m. - open from 15 May to 30th September), table tennis, table football, children's games and a bowling green. Pets are welcome (extra charge could be required).
For adults and children there is a large private swimming pool (size 9x16 m. -depth 1,20 m. completely fenced - open from 15 May to 30th September) with bathroom with shower and a small gazebo with fridge to cool down on hot summer days and the tennis court.
On one side of the house you will find two large pergolas furnished with table, chairs and barbecue, where you can organise family dinners and barbecues “al fresco”. Casale Aiola
Description
Villa Cecilia is an old farmhouse dating back to before 1800. You will find it perched on a hill in the heart of the Valdichiana, about 4 km from Castiglion Fiorentino, a characteristic village where you will find shops, restaurants, supermarkets and all necessities.
The farmhouse has been recently and carefully restored under the careful guidance of the owners, who strongly wished to maintain its ancient origins and characteristics. The original terracotta tiled floors, the high ceilings with wooden beams, all coordinated with quality furnishings, with fine antiques, are a perfect match for the characteristics of the villa. You will feel a sense of warmth at the villa, you will feel welcomed and pampered, perfectly in harmony with your surroundings.
The history of the farmhouse is also fascinating. In ancient times, the Valdichiana was a swamp and before the land reclamation took place, its waters lapped the land of the property and just a few steps from the house there was a small harbour for boats that connected by water to the surrounding villages.
Today the villa is part of a farm that includes vineyards, cereal crops, farmyard animals and beautiful horses. About 1 km away, at the owners' residence, you will be able to enjoy the organic produce from their vegetable garden free of charge. Their paddocks, should you travel with your horses, will be at your disposal (service available for a fee).
Around the villa, you will enjoy a large, completely fenced green space perfect for your morning or evening walks even with your four-legged friends. Inside the park there is also a woodland path (approx. 500 m) where you can relax, walk and organise cool snacks.
For your days at home, there is a beautiful infinity swimming pool (size 6x12 m, depth 1.35 m - open from 01 May to 30 September), with a Roman staircase, a beautiful porch well equipped with outdoor furniture, where you can enjoy a book or an aperitif in company, the barbecue for your cookouts and also games for your children.

Description
We find Podere Marcigliano nestled in the green Valdichiana, on a gentle hill at the gates of the town of Cortona, which is a must-visit destination. First with its Etruscan and then Roman reminiscences, the town enjoyed considerable prosperity during the medieval period and from 1411 followed the glorious fortunes of the Granducato di Toscana. Its cobbled alleys that wind their way up the hill, the ancient buildings, squares and churches, will make you fall in love with this small and industrious centre of the Valdichiana of Arezzo area, a memory you will always carry in your heart in the years to come, we are sure!
In Cortona or Camucia you will find shops, supermarkets, typical restaurants and every kind of service you need.
Podere Marcigliano consists of 2 newly built villas, which nevertheless reflect the architectural characteristics of the farmhouses of the past. In the first building there are 3 apartments (Torreone, Tufa and the first floor owner’s apartment), in the second there are 2 units (Corito and Rugapiana).
Each apartment has a large green area, a beautiful swimming pool (size 7x14 m, depth 1.50 m - open from 15 May to 30 September and fully fenced), a barbecue, a laundry room in common use and children's games, and its own private area equipped with a furnished gazebo for your meals in the open air.
You will find yourself living your stay in contact with nature but still close to the major centres of Tuscany and Umbria. Its convenient location, quiet but not isolated, makes Podere Marcigliano the ideal place to spend a relaxing holiday while not being far from the major communication routes that will allow you to easily visit, even on day trips, cities of art and small charming villages, little known jewels of the Central Italian countryside.
Podere Marcigliano is also the ideal structure for off-season stays, during the winter and Christmas period, when the town of Cortona is transformed with the thousands of lights of the characteristic Christmas markets and Santa' House. Podere Marcigliano

Nonno Fernando is a farm built entirely of stone whose origins date back approximately to the early 19th century. In the recent renovation of the farm, the current owners have preserved the original design of the distribution of the various rooms. For the renovation of the farm, recycled materials were used both for the roofs and for the floors, covered in Tuscan terracotta. In addition, the exposed chestnut wood beams have been preserved. The farm is located in the lush Tuscan countryside, a few minutes from the seductive medieval town of Cortona, perched on a steep hill overlooking the Val di Chiana and Lake Trasimeno. The convenience of its location, well connected to the main road junctions and well served by the national railway network, represents a significant advantage for organizing excursions to the many surrounding villages and for visiting the main cities of Umbria and Tuscany. All this, enriched by the numerous high-quality food and wine proposals handed down by the Tuscan culinary tradition, with the unmistakable simple but intense flavors of typical dishes.

The estate is adorned with typical Tuscan vegetation trees such as olive and elm trees, as well as a vast orchard available to guests, consisting of nuts, figs and pomegranates. The large and well-kept spaces all around invite guests to spend their days outdoors, having their lunches and dinners together under the large gazebo outside the kitchen, where a stone barbecue is located a few steps away, or playing table tennis under the shade of a gazebo or kicking the ball a few steps away. Alternatively, you can decide to relax under one of the gazebos located in various parts of the garden, simply admiring the wonderful view of the hill of Cortona that is offered from there.
N.B.: Please note that the photo shoots are usually carried out in spring, so the colors and blooms of the gardens, lawns and parks may be different when you enter the villa.
Pool:
The pool area is fenced with mesh and is located on the same level as the villa, which is about 70 m away. The rectangular tub measures 12 x 6 m. It has a depth that varies from a minimum of 1.20 m to a maximum of 1.50 and is equipped with a cold outdoor shower. A comfortable Roman staircase on one side of the pool with 4 large steps allows easy entry into the water. The tub is covered in PVC with a chlorine purification system and is equipped with internal lighting. The edge and the area around the pool are paved with 1.5 m of Tuscan terracotta, while the solarium area, equipped with sun loungers, chairs and armchairs, occupies the surrounding well-kept lawn. Also in the pool area there are two gazebos, a short distance from each other, furnished with armchairs and smoking tables, ideal for spending, alone or in company, authentic moments of relaxation, perhaps enjoying a good glass of wine. The pool is open from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday in October.
