Restored Stone Cottage in Niccone Valley
Peaceful Location, 5 Minutes Drive to Lisciano Niccone
Sleeps 4 (2 Bedrooms)
|
|
'La Loggia' is our attached stone cottage that was sympathetically restored to a high standard a few years ago and now provides a luxuriously appointed base for travellers wishing to explore the lovely Niccone valley and its surrounding places of interest. The location is peaceful with a pretty garden, with direct access from the kitchen/dining area and overlooked by the terrace opening from the master bedroom. The house sleeps four in two double bedrooms, both with en-suite shower rooms and so is ideal for two couples. The road access is very good and Cortona and Lake Trasimeno are nearby. Other destinations such as Assisi, Siena, Gubbio, Sansepolcro and Perugia are all within easy reach.
