About the owner
My wife and I live in the UK, but spend as much time as we can in Italy where we have made a number of friends and enjoy the relaxed lifestyle.
Year purchased: 2004
Why the owner chose a home in this location
We had wanted to buy a second home in Italy for some time before we 'discovered' Le Marche and fell in love with the beauty of the landscape and the rich culture of the area. Early retirement gave us the time and opportunity. With the old farmhouse in such a lovely setting we saw the potential for vacations for both ourselves and holiday makers and were able to incorporate modern facilities into a traditional building. The feedback from guests reassures us that we made the right decision. There is so much to enjoy-the weather, the food and wine, the medieval hilltop towns which still retain their natural charm and the views across the rolling hills. Then in the evening - alfresco suppers, the sun sets, star gazing and the twinkling lights of the distant towns – are all memorable.
Unique benefits of the property
We enjoy the tranquillity but also the convenience of Casa Aurelio. All the facilities we need are just a short drive away- shops, banks, pharmacies, restaurants. Yet we feel completely 'away from it all' .In the spring and autumn we enjoy a 'second summer' relaxing in the landscaped garden or on the terrace. There are a number of really nice restaurants nearby specialising in local dishes (eg. game, mushrooms and truffle) or on the coast seafood and fish. We love spending a late evening in summer on the coast when, after the heat of the day the resorts really come alive. We always include a trip to the mountains to enjoy the beautiful views and the alpine flowers. For an evening with a difference we go to the horse races just a 10 minute drive away.
