Casa Colonica is a charming, rustic Le Marche farmhouse, built in the local style and stone. The house is situated 15 minutes walk from the ancient hilltop village of Colmurano, although it is set on its own, with plenty of privacy. The property has its own private 8 meter pool, sun and shaded terraces, and stunning views of the Appenines. The house, complete with original beamed ceilings and brick floors, sleeps up to 10, with four bedrooms, two bathrooms (one en-suite) and 2 large reception rooms. Please note that we are doing changeovers on Wednesdays during 2006 - this is because Ryan Air flights to Ancona and Pescara are around 50% cheaper on Wednesdays compared to Saturdays, so this represents a chance for our customers to save a lot of money on flights! If this is a problem for you, please let us know and we will see if we can arrange for a Saturday changeover.

If the week you want falls between two payment periods, then the higher amount will apply.
Changeover day
For the 2006 season, we are doing changeovers on Wednesdays, rather than Saturdays. This is because most of our visitors travel to Italy via RyanAir from Stansted, and Wednesday flights are always cheaper than Saturdays - sometimes as much as half price.

The house itself is about 100 years old. It has exposed beamed ceilings throughout, with brick or stone floors. The external walls of the house are very thick, so the interior stays cool even in the heat of the day.

Guest comments
The holiday was tremendous and your house is sheer heaven. Gareth wanted to buy it on the spot but I can't imagine your ever getting rid of it. You have certainly found a little piece of heaven! There can't be many swimming pools where you turn a corner to be greeted by a view like that. Even preparing scripts was a delight at 6.00 a.m. when you could look out on those hills,- and you never felt a lonely worker with the small tractors going round and round from dawn till dusk ploughing those precipices. As for the restaurant in Loro that you recommended,- well, it was food to die for and our first experience after much searching on previous visits of truly magnificent local cooking. I don't know why I'm telling you all this when you clearly know it all too well but we did appreciate your very helpful notes that made the holiday at your lovely house even more memorable.
