What people say
Lovely, perfectly authentic restored typical Tuscan landhouse, in the middle of beautiful surroundings of Cortona and sunflower fields. Romantic bedrooms, fresh, beautifully decorated. Luxury bathroom and bath-clothing. Perfect in the smallest details. Wonderful breakfast buffet and a nice refreshing pool. People are very friendly and helpful. Unforgettable, we will certainly return! Peter Krikke. all reviews »
We absolutely loved it. It was a good "base" spot from which to see Tuscany, although a car is essential. We had thought we would take day trips by train initially, but thay was not realistic. Anyway, the converted farmhouse was charming, the breakfasts were good, the pool was as it was described and the owners and staff were extremely nice and accommodating. We would recommend it to others.When I read the previous reviews of Le Terre Dei Cavalieri, including the one that said, "We wanted to cancel the rest of our itinerary and stay here for the rest of our trip," I was sold. And the reviews were no exaggeration. The hotel is extremely beautiful, the proprietors wonderfully helpful, the spaces large and graceful, the breakfast superb. We will be back, with family and friends. Well appointed and nicely decorated rooms. Perfect country ambiance Very friendly and helpful staff. We stayed at the end of the Fall season and were the only guests. Instead of cancelling our reservation which they had ample time to do, they stayed open to honor it and prepared sumptous breakfasts for us. We stayed two nights and would to return for a longer stay perhaps in Summer.This is one of the most beautiful farmhouses we have ever stayed at in Tuscany....exquisite!! The staff, family and owners were very nice and hospitable. The rooms were beautiful and the breakfast was very nice. We have 2 children and felt comfortable here. We will have to visit when it is warmer so the kids can enjoy the pool. Only 5-10 minutes to Cortona by Car. All the staff at the Hotel were extremely friendly and helpfull. All though we are an english speaking family everyone at Le Terre Dei Cavalieri were most helpful even if the they had a limited english vocabulary. To anyone reading this review, don't be let the concern of a language barrier concern you. The room, the faclities and location were great. Highly recommend.We loved this place. Such a wonderful layout. All the rooms were perfectly clean and beautifully decortated. The staff was charming and eager to be of assistance. We highly recommend this place to anyone wishing to stay near Cortona and surrouding areas. Very good value for money. It was Tuscany to a tee......it is the place you want to stay to get a flavor of what it is all about. Beautiful location, beautifully decorated. We have a wonderful, large bedroom and bath. Perfect!! It was 10-15 min. from the Town of Cortona.The room and location were perfect! We could not have asked for a betterplace to enjoy Tuscany. The owners more than accommodated our requestsand made our stay the best of our visit to Italy. We plan to return toenjoy a longer stay in the future. This hotel is the most wonderful hotel we have been in Italy!!! We booked for one night but we couldnt leave so we stayed more. Don't miss this one and don't miss the nicest stuff in this hotel. worth every euro.Amazingly beautiful farmhouse. We stayed for two nights in a suite and wish we had decided to stay much longer!! Great location for access to Cortona. Would definitely recommend and would love to return. The management and staff are friendly and helpful. Le Terre Dei Cavalieri is a beautiful place with a luxury swimming pool and many cosy places to sit and enjoy a glass of Chianti with a view of Tuscany.The rustic charm of the beautifully restored building. Peace and tranquility of the surrounding countryside. The most charming hotel we stayed in during our time in Tuscany. Very helpful staff. I would highly recommend this lovely hotel in the Tuscany/Chianti area. The rooms were lovely, the breakfasts were delicious and the staff could not have been more helpful.Everything (the hospitality, the location, perfect rooms and beautiful swimming pool! It is like being in paradise!. surroundings-room and lobby were amazing-nice warm people willing to serve in a friendly way-perfect bed. Tranquil, remote location, friendly and obliging staff, spotlessly clean and comfortable accomodation. Gracious large rooms, farm-house-chic decor, stunning in all respects. This is really a heaven in the earth - our compliments to the owners. Ideal location, helpful staff, excellent facilities.Unusual and incredible. And a great value. very large and convinient rooms, good atmosphere, very friendly staff, a quiet place with beautiful surroundings , very nice dining room. excelent value for the money.The hotel loccation and its facilities. The warm friendly staff. Again, a car is necessary as it is out in the country, unless one planned to stay on the property and not go anywhere. Although we had not planned to rent a car, we were so glad we did and we enjoyed our day trips immensely. It is a little difficult to find but the hotel sent excellent driving instructions. Better directions on how to get there. It was very difficult to find and we needed to call them for further assistance. breakfast variety.
