Gorgacce

Map reference 2F

(sleeps 6 maximum) is in the Niccone valley which runs from the Tuscan town of Mercatale di Cortona (3 km) into Umbria and the upper Tiber valley.

The house is quite private but not isolated. The nearest shop is 1 km away in the hamlet of Mengaccini.

The living accommodation is on the middle floor (the upper floor is unrestored). Steps arrive at a loggia (or open, walled terace). You enter what was the main farmhouse room which now has a modern kitchen at one end, a dining area and a sitting area in front of the old fireplace (now with wood stove). There are beamed ceilings throughout the house and terracotta floors - it is all on one level apart from a single step into the bathroom (shower). The main double bedroom is at the front of the house, off the main room with a high vaulted beamed ceiling with tiles. The other two bedrooms ( a double and one with two single beds) are off a short hallway which leads to the bathroom. There are good views, across and down the valley, from each room.

There is satellite TV and DVD player in the sitting area. The kitchen has a gas hob, electric oven, washing machine, dishwasher and fridge/freezer.

There are good views from each room, across to the Castle of Reschio on one side of the valley and of Sorbello in the distance.

A loggia (or terrace) by the house entrance has a sun awning and a dining area.

The property is on a south-east facing hillside. The pool, new this year, is 9x4.5m and a barn giving daytime shade is equipped with table, chairs and barbecue. The pool has a safety fence, and there is a table tennis table. The house manager, a good cook, will provide a meal by arrangement for your first evening and always leaves a welcome pack.

All that is shown in the pictures and described above is private to guests at the house. The owners have an apartment at the other side of the building on the ground floor where they stay when in Italy. It is not available for renting and in no way invades the privacy of the rented house.
