Very serene and stunning. The blue roof with the stars and the stripped walls are in great contrast to the incredible artwork and alters. Very special
The winding drive upward to the Tuscan hilltown of Cortona can sometimes be breathtaking - but it is always beautiful. The "home town" of the famous Catholic Saint Margaret of Cortona, whose statue will be found after you have fully ascended to the Piazza of...More
I went in Cortona to meet Glenda, the best wedding planner I could ever meet. She planned our wedding in Edinburgh and this was the best thing we did. Glenda is amazing, fast, polite and sweet! She understood what we needed and she made her...More
