Guest comments
Thankyou for a great Easter, weather good for time of year. Apartment very comfortable, surroundings great. Breakfast on the balcony worth getting up for. Sanarno market just as you described. Hope to go again soon. C and D (UK).
Great place, really comfortable, peaceful and relaxing. Weather great, locals very friendly even though I don't speak Italian. Can't believe I saw a family of wild boar trotting across the road near the house - what a sight! Hope to go back next year, see you then M (UK).
Much more beautiful than described, K & M (Scotland & USA).
Having been to Tuscany and Umbria we wanted to see if Le Marche lived up to the recent reports, it did! Around every corner a different photo opportunity. Thanks for letting us stay in your wonderful place, hope to see you for the Palio one year. J, J and the girls (UK).
It's the night before we leave and we're savouring every last moment. We really couldn't have chosen a better spot along with such friendly host's. J and H(UK).

About the owner
We are a very hard working, down to earth Yorkshire couple (Anthony originates from Wales) who are trying to realise the dream. We currently divide our time between Italy and England - Karen in Italy making sure our guests and property are well taken care of and Anthony in Italy for the summer and England for the winter working were ever he can. We hope to make the move permanently to Italy in the not too distant future. We are very keen to develop some of our land into a small holding so we can be as self sufficient as possible.
Year purchased: 2005
Why the owner chose an apartment in this location
We fell in love with Le Marche instantly, the natural unspoilt beauty is breathtaking and we never tire of looking at it - if we ever do then it will be time to move on.
The rural location offers peace and tranquility - and as one guest (and now good friend) described "when you drive through the archway of trees you enter your own little world where you feel totally relaxed and a million miles away from the stresses of the world"
Unique benefits of the property
The property is surrounded by some of the most beautiful and historic hill top towns and villages. The Sibillini mountains and the treasures they offer are a short drive away as are the blue flag beaches of the Adriatic coast. We provide guests with everything needed for a day out - picnic set, wind break, umbrella, ball games etc or if you prefer to stay in then sun loungers, BBQ set, DVDs, books etc are also provided. We offer guests a taxi service (which is charged by the M) and babysitting service (charged by the hour).
