A veritable oasis
If you like to be away from the madding crowd, but within easy reach of it, this is the place for you. There is a fantastic and dramatic off road 6 minute drive from the main road to the house which is perched in isolation on the top of the hill with spectacular “Siena Hills” type views. The host’s and beautiful hostess were mega helpful and provided us with great advice (some of which we foolishly ignored). Urbino with its stunning Hogwarts fortress / facade and the beautiful Urbana are just 20 minutes away and there is plenty to see within an hour or so; castles, medieval towns and villages, lakes and mountains - in two word - spectacular and fantastic

No frillls in Paradise
House was cute rural, good beds,plenty of room. Pool was excellent with spectacular views. 2 bathrooms. Hosts were friendly and helpful. Area is beautiful, BUT there is a very steep windy unsealed track (3km) from the road to the house. Wi fi is a problem- they have 2 strong modems in the main house, but not a simple booster for guest house. So you have to sit around the pool to get it. And if it rains....also kitchen facilities are sub standard for the remoteness and distance from shops (30 minutes, including that track). No stove,no proper toaster, no proper kettle, no oven. Urbino is great place, and worth a visit

A wonderful place to stay.
We had a wonderful week staying in the annexe. The rooms are comfortably and beautifully decorated. The location is spectacular with amazing views in almost every direction. Gianni and Antonella are superb hosts. On one evening they prepared an excellent meal for us and the guests staying in the main house. The house is remote which is part of its appeal, but it is only a half hour's drive to Urbino and Urbania. I highly recommend the Annexe for a relaxing holiday in le Marche.

Lovely stay in beautiful surroundings
We had a wonderful time staying in the Annexe of this beautiful home. Antonella and her family were very welcoming, friendly and helpful, giving us advice on great places and restaurants to visit in the area. Everything about the Country House is lovely, the stone buildings, the flowers around the old farm machinery, the pool and the stunning views across the surrounding hills and mountains. Our Annexe was very comfortable and private with our own kitchen and areas to eat inside and outside on the terrace.

Erholung pur
Antonella und Gianni sind tolle Gastgeber. wir haben uns sofort wie zu Hause gefühlt. Wir haben viele schöne Tips für Ausflüge in die nähere und weitere Umgebung bekommen. Die Abende an denen dort für alle Gäste gekocht wird sind besonders schön und werden uns immer in Erinnerung bleiben. Man braucht nicht viel um dort einen schönen Urlaub zu verbringen. Der Pool ist herrlich, ausreichend groß und hat eine fantastische Lage. Wir würden dort jederzeit wieder Urlaub machen, es wäre wie zu guten Freunden fahren. Anzumerken ist noch die Schotterstrasse zum Anwesen, man braucht ein ordentliches Auto, da die Steigung 18% hat.
