Accommodation in Italy- Cortona.
Travelling south from Arezzo you pass through the rather flat and uninspiring Valdichiana (this is drained swampland, reclaimed along with the Maremma by the Etruscans, and now prime cattle country), flanked by numerous hilltop towns, the finest of which is undoubtedly Cortona. Visible from all around, a five kilometre drive through vineyards and olive groves, passing the splendid Renaissance church of Santa Maria delle Grazie en route, will take you up and up towards the town, dominated by the ubiquitous Medici fortress.
Cortona
is surrounded by ancient fortified walls, and this built in planning
restriction has meant that nearly all new development has occurred
lower down the hill, leaving Cortona as a delightful mediaeval town
to explore on foot.
