Dipped in the green Tuscan hills nearby the ancient town of Cortona Villa Tommasi-Aliotti enjoys a strategic location from which all best know art cities and towns such as Arezzo, Florence, Siena, Perugia, Cortona, Castiglion Fiorentino, Sansepolcro, Montalcino, Pienza, Castiglion del Lago, Gubbio and Assisi may be easily reached. The villa standing at the centre of an imposing park dates back to the 18th century and consists of the large ancient master’s villa, a green-house – lemon-house and a family chapel and is owned since the 16th century by the Tommasi family, one of the most prominent families in town.

The villa was originally built in the 16th century as a country residence and appeared back then as a sober building lacking any sculptural detail and architectural formalism. In the second half of the 18 th century when the villa was owned by Cav. Niccolò di Annibale Tommasi of the Order of Santo Stefano an extensive restoration project was undertaken through which the brick main entrance, the first part of the lemon-house and the chapel were added to the original structure.
The villa underwent substantial restoration in the 19th century and it was then that the imposing central roof-terrace was added to the building.

The villa is today part of the Italian Historic Building Association and protected by the Ministry of Cultural Heritage.
The villa is still inhabited by the owners and rented to guests for both longer and short periods. Guests may enjoy here relaxing stays in a place rich in history and culture and behold the beauty of a unique landscape.
