Il Falconiere, Crotona

The summer sun stays late in southern Tuscany, and there’s nowhere more beautiful to stay there than Il Falconiere, outside the medieval hilltop town of Cortona.
The hotel, made up of exquisitvely furnished 16th century villas, sits on a hillside with superb views over the countryside, two glorious pools, and the new stylish Thesan Etruscan spa.
While sipping a glass of their own oaky Baracchi red wine, the afternoons drift by in the peace, stillness and that sweeping sense of timelessness one gets in Tuscany.
Superb Tuscan food is served in the Michelin star, Relais & Chateaux restaurant, which is an unforgettable occasion.
You may even be sitting near Sophia Loren or Robert Redford, who favour Il falconiere when they regularly attend the Tuscan Sun Festival, one of Europe’s best cultural events.
