Villa Fareta is a 15 minute drive from the beautiful city of Cortona. It is perfectly placed to explore the Val d'Orcia as well as Tuscan cities such as Siena and Arezzo. However, it is also a short drive across the border to neighbouring Umbria. Here, guests can discover the beautiful Lake Trasimeno along with towns and cities such as Perugia, Assisi and Castiglione del Lago. Sports enthusiasts can enjoy a number of water sports on Lake Trasimeno such as canoeing, sailing, fishing and water skiing. Those who prefer a spot of shopping can head instead to the Valdichiana Village Outlet 10 km away where you will find dozens of fashion brands at heavily discounted prices.
