Borgo Il Melone Sketch









Karen's Review Of This Property:
Borgo Il Melone

The charming medieval Etruscan town of Cortona that gained international fame through Frances Mayes’ bestseller, “Under the Tuscan Sun”, has subsequently responded to the increased demand for tourist accommodation. The Mancini family decided to completely refurbish their lovely old farm (a village in itself on the site of an Etruscan settlement) to accommodate a variety of needs for the more demanding traveler. The 17th-century private home sits in the middle of its meticulously landscaped gardens boasting 2,500 rose plants and surrounded by ten other stone houses which are now home to the comfortable hotel, Locanda. Featuring a voluminous breakfast room, eight spacious one, two and three-bedroom apartments on two floors of the former olive oil mill and farmer’s quarters, there are also two excellent restaurants, a wine bar, a stunning swimming pool with hydro-massage, and a chapel. The décor of all the rooms is in keeping with an air of elegant country ambiance. A complete country resort.
