ED Refnr. 2760920 Holiday apartments in a country house with a shared pool and cookery courses The country house is in Cortina, in the Montalla area. The rurally situated locality is quiet, but not remote. The stone country house consists of two independent holiday apartments. It dates back to the 16th century and has been lovingly restored, preserving the ancient features and original structure. It is decorated in an Arte Povera style, simple and rural, but comfortable. Free wireless Internet access is available. Each apartment in the country house has its own outdoor area. The apartments share a pool, which is in a separate area next to the gardens, ensuring privacy for guests. The pool is also for the use of guests at property no. 1023587, about 700 metres away and belonging to the same owner. It is an overflow pool with a sterilising system based on salt water, without chlorine. It is not supervised, measures 6 x 12 metres and is open from May to September (depending on weather conditions). The owners offer cookery courses or individual instruction, so you can learn to prepare typical Tuscan dishes, as well as pasta, bread, game and even medieval dishes (prices available locally, depending on the course). The courses take place in the owners’ restaurant, where you can also dine in the evening if you book in advance. Firewood is provided during the cool season. The first 100kg are free, further use is payable. The centre of Cortona is only a five-minute drive away. The nearest supermarket is only 1km away and is within walking distance.
