I’ve stayed here—and from the moment I arrived, I knew it was special. Villa Frances is one of those rare places where everything just feels right. Just outside Cortona, this elegant 17th-century farmhouse is surrounded by olive groves, lavender, and long Tuscan views that stop you in your tracks. Whether you're arriving with family or friends, it invites you to slow down, settle in, and enjoy the rhythm of life in the countryside.
The villa’s ten bedrooms are beautifully appointed, each with an en-suite bathroom and views that stretch across the valley. The beds are ultra-comfortable—pillow-top with Egyptian cotton sheets—and the interiors are a perfect balance of heritage and refinement. Everything is well thought out, from the sitting rooms and terraces to the kitchen and dining areas where everyone naturally comes together.
Outside, the heated pool and jacuzzi are set against classic Tuscan views. There are plenty of quiet corners, shady spots, and gathering places, whether you're lounging with a book or enjoying a sunset aperitivo. And the wine-tasting room? It’s a quiet favourite—perfect for sampling the region’s best bottles in the comfort of your own space.
If you’re looking for an authentic Tuscan experience with all the comfort and elegance you’d hope for—Villa Frances delivers.
