About Cortona

Text
Surrounded by old walls, Cortona is a pocket of terracotta-topped buildings with plenty of Etruscan history to uncover. From here, you can stare out across the magnificent hillsides of eastern Tuscany. No wonder it was the setting of the best-selling novel Under the Tuscan Sun!

Sensational sights

Between the Diocesan Museum and Cortona Cathedral, you’ll begin to get a sense of the resort’s past pretty fast. The Franciscan hermitage, Eremo Le Celle, is a bit different to your standard historic feature – seven friars still call this place home, so head off to explore this peaceful plot.

Fab flavours

Around the resort, you’ll have a clutch of enotecas for wine tasting, and various restaurants offer a menu of dishes using local cattle. Give both a try! But when it comes to fine dining, Il Falconiere has one Michelin star and takes you on a culinary adventure. Go beyond rustic Italian!
