Description
This beautifully refurbished Farmhouse on the edge of the Maiella National Park offers luxurious accommodation over two floors. A large eat-in kitchen, spacious, wood-beamed drawing room with open fire, book-lined study with wood burning stove, entrance hall, utility room and five well appointed bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms. Featured in ‘Italia’ magazine and designed to the highest standards. Wi-Fi access and comprehensive film library. Set in landscaped gardens with pool, barbecue, views over olive groves, mountains and sea. Can be rented in conjunction with Il Fienile (adjoining) to sleep a total of 16 – 18 guests.
The house is ideally situated for hiking in the National Park of the Maiella (only 5 minutes away), sunbathing and seaside swimming in the summer (the Adriatic coast is only half an hour away) and skiing in the winter. We can recommend activities and cultural excursions. We are more than happy to accommodate specific requests guests may have in mind. We have sourced many ‘artegianale’ producers of local food products of the highest quality, as well as textile and porcelain manufacturers, all traditional to the region. Our olive oil is of the highest quality (hand-picked, cold-pressed, extra- virgin, and single- estate) and is in great demand in London – there is always enough, however, for our guests!
