A Timeless Retreat in Southern Tuscany

For hundreds of years, Cortevecchia has welcomed travelers to the rolling hills of southern Tuscany — a timeless retreat where history, nature, and hospitality meet.

Villas of History and Culture

Three centuries-old stone villas, carefully restored, preserve the charm of the past while offering today’s comfort.

In the 17th and 18th centuries, the estate became a cultural refuge, hosting elegant gardens and events that brought together music, art, and the beauty of the Tuscan countryside.

A Stage for History

Even history’s great figures passed through: in 1240–1241, Emperor Frederick II of Swabia camped his imperial troops here during a medieval siege.

Living Tuscan Heritage

Today, Cortevecchia remains a living piece of Tuscan heritage, where guests swim in the hillside pool, explore scenic trails, play sports, and rest in villas that have been part of this land for centuries.
