“Relais alla Corte del Sole” was created out of an ancient village dating back to the 16th century, and whose 14th century centre belonged to the Santo Stefano order. Thanks to its central location, it was a stopover place and point of reference for pilgrims on their way to Arezzo.
Still today, the historical residence maintains the characteristic of a meeting place: situated in front of the important town of Cortona, near Trasimeno Lake, and near the Tuscany region border, the Relais offers “today’s pilgrims” a panorama of one of the most suggestive Italian lakes and, at the same time, the possibility to easily reach the cities of Siena and Montepulciano with their historic and cultural treasures and beautiful countryside.
The harmonious architectural structure of the rustic village with its prominent signs of ancient working, enriched and redefined with knowledgeable restoration, today has splendid bedrooms and suites with every comfort, furnished with period furniture and fine details: original paintings, four-poster beds and pretty armchairs. Authentic 16th century history, with its characteristic silence and peace, gives guests a sensation of well-being.
The cuisine of this ancient court is also a unique gastronomic experience, a mix of traditional Umbrian recipes with modern innovation of international cuisine.
