I could not recommend this place more highly! Sara and Patrizia were amazing hosts! The apartment is so comfy, clean and spacious. The kitchen is well equipped and the beds comfy. Cavriglia is a lovely little town and a great place to explore TUSCANY and Umbria from.

Pour une fois la photo et les photos correspondent à la réalité. Pas duper. un endroit vraiment agréable. Une vaisselle fonctionnelle qui n'est pas le bric à brac que le propriétaire ne veut plus chez lui. Enfin le locataire est considéré et n'est pas qu'une simple vache à traire. Petit bémol des chiens qui de temps à autre jappent toute la journée

Prima huis voorzien van alle faciliteiten.
Aardige bemiddelaarster die sleuteloverdracht doet.
Stroom is wel een ding je kunt niet twee apparaten tegelijk aanzetten in het huis anders klapt de stroom eruit.
Wel makkelijk te verhelpen via stoppenkast.
Dicht bij skibus en winkels op loopafstand.
We zouden graag terug komen.

Fine house equipped with all facilities.
Nice mediator who does key exchange.
Power is one thing though you can't turn on two appliances at the same time in the house otherwise the power will blow.
Easy to fix via fuse box though.
Close to ski bus and shops within walking distance.
We would love to come back.

Appartamento bellissimo, rifinito e curato in ogni dettaglio, fedelissimo a quello che si vede nelle foto. La ristrutturazione lo ha reso moderno dal punto di vista della tecnologia e delle infrastrutture, mantenendo però la magia del sapore di "antico".
La posizione è eccellente, in pieno centro a Cortona, ma lontano dalla confusione che si potrebbe creare nella piazza principale (raggiungibile a piedi in due minuti), e praticamente sopra l'ampio parcheggio pubblico gratuito.
Bellissimo!

The location is excellent, in the center of Cortona, but away from the confusion that could be created in the main square (reachable on foot in two minutes), and practically above the large free public car park.

There were several problems we encountered, listed in the order of priority to us:
1) the heat was turned on too high druing the whole time, and it was like a bath house! So we had to sleep with open windows in order to make it bearable. But during the high winds the windows kept closing and it was impossible to sleep. We kept asking the lady but she did not know how to make the heat lower. Finally, after several days the manager showed up and showed us how to turn thermostat down. But even after we turned it down all the way, the heater kept running and it was still too hot inside!
2) We were charged more than $100 (I think) for heating in addition to the rental price and to the cleaning fee. We asked to turn the heat off completely and remove that extra charge, but it was denied. It was lowered (i think) 20 or 30 pounds, but it was still excessive, especially considereing the problem we had (see above).
3) The stove was quite difficult to operate: we had to fidget with it a few min every time in order to make coffee, etc.: it required to turn on the gas fuse (or valve?) located under the kitchen sink, and even after it was turned on, it was still difficult to light up the burner.
4) It was nice to get a bottle of wine:) It would also be nice to have some basic kitchen stuff, like coffee and tea, and oil and sugar for simple cooking. Also, soap detergent or liquid soap for the kitchen sink?
5) the light on the one side of the bed was not working.
6) The apartment itself was quite nice and spacious, and pictures showed it correctly.
