Apartments Il Borghetto di Cortennano
San Gimignano - Siena - Tuscany - Italy
       
  
Il BORGHETTO di Cortennano lies on the side of a hill within the municipal borders of San Gimignano directly on the original old dirt road leading to the town, with the best view of the famous towers. The little cluster of buildings is perfectly situated in the midst of the splendid Tuscan countryside, surrounded by olive orchards and vineyards for the production of fine oil of the highest quality and fragrance, and Vernaccia, the white wine praised by Redi in his Dithyrambic of Bacchus in Tuscany.
San Gimignano is just 3 Km away, and is a symbol and treasure beloved by all humanity, safeguarded and protected by Unesco for its art, history and culture. The other major Tuscan historical tourist zones are all nearby: Florence, Siena, Volterra, the Chianti region and the Tyrrhenian sea. The region has a great culinary tradition; everywhere you go you can enjoy the wonderful dishes of Tuscan cuisine, accompanied by the fine wines.
The history of IL BORGHETTO plays a part to the history of the great Villa of Pietrafitta of which it was a section. From historical research we know that initially it belonged to the Cattani family who were a noble feudal family at the beginning of 1300.
