A perfect week to end our honeymoon. Fantastic location, wonderful hospitality. Made to feel very at home and comfortable by our hosts. Additional travel suggestions that enabled us to see places we would never have otherwise seen. The region is full of treasures and Simonetta was able to guide us to many real gems. On top of everyting else we... more

We were four women, two seniors and two (yikes) 40ish. We stayed at Casa Bellavista in May 2008. We chose this B&B because we wanted to have a cooking lesson during our trip to Italy and Casa Bellavista was one of the more reasonably priced lessons that we found. It worked out perfectly that we were able to stay there... more

Its hard to decide what to describe first about Casa Bella Vista. One could talk at length about the views across the wheat fields of Tuscany, the sights of the towns of Cortona or Montepulciano in the distance, the high standard of accomodation, the massive 2 metre long by 2 metre wide beds, the filling breakfasts or delicious dinner that... more

I stayed at this B&B twice in the last 2 months and each time it has been an absolute pleasure. Simonetta has made a beautiful home filled with antiques, with lovely views over the Tuscan countryside. She is a wonderful hostess, makes you feel totally at ease and nothing is too much trouble. The location is great, with easy access... more

Just returned from a fantastic winter trip to Tuscany where we (family of 5) were welcomed with open arms by Simonetta at Casa Bellavista. She is the most friendly and helpful hostess! We were so pleased with this beautifully decorated B&B. The warmth of the fireplace during the winter nights was so inviting as well as the delicious buffet breakfast... more

Casa Bellavista was a wonderful escape from the busy hotels in other cities on our recent Italian vacation. Simonetta, who runs the classy B&B, was incredibly helpful when it came to planning our time in Tuscany and navigating the roads between each of the towns. A bonus is the breakfast spread, and to avoid venturing out onto the windy roads... more

I don't like taking pictures but during our stay, we had taken so many photos that the memory card of my camera was full before we left Casa Bellavista. This is probably the prettiest place I have ever stayed: the sunflower fields surrounding the property, the well-decorated interior, the pool... We had enjoyed all the day trips and restaurants Simonetta... more

Casa Bellavista and its wonderful owner Simonetta are the only place to stay in Tuscany! The rooms are wonderful, the views fabulous, the food divine! We stayed for one night two years ago, two nights this July, our next trip will be whole week! Simonetta embodies all the graciousness that is Italian hospitality. We felt completely at home and the... more

Casa Bellavista is situated on a hilltop in the Val di Chiana. Surrounded by fields of grain and sunflowers, it offers scenic views of Cortona, made famous by “Under The Tuscan Sun”. Simonetta and Guido are great hosts and make you feel a part of their wonderful family. We found the breakfasts to be bountiful with homemade jams, meets, cheese,... more
