Casa della Marchesa and Casa Luisa

Steeped in the tranquillity of the Marche countryside, with panoramic views of medieval hilltop towns and the majestic Sibillini mountains, Casa della Marchesa and Casa Luisa are two large dream villas in a unique setting. Skillfully restored in 2004, the villas are furnished and decorated to the highest standard, with top quality furniture, handmade curtains and original works of art.

The villas, which can sleep up to 17 in all, are ideal for two families or a group of friends wanting to holiday together. They are also available to rent separately, each house retaining its privacy and independence. Each has its own garden, terraces and outside eating area with teak furniture and shares the use of a new very large swimming pool (14m x 6m) surrounded by terraces with unsurpassed views. The houses are encircled by 15 hectares of wildflower meadows and groves of fruit and walnut trees.

For that special wedding, there is also a private chapel in the larger of the villas.

The local town is Sarnano (10 minutes drive), which has a perfectly preserved medieval centre and is also known for its thermal baths. Here all your shopping needs are served by people who go out of their way to be friendly and helpful. In the wider area there is a wealth of places to visit and things to do, from Roman ruins, beautiful towns and the Macerata opera festival to walking in the national park, skiing in winter or swimming in the clear waters of Lake Fiastra in the summer.

Casa Luisa

This house is probably 19th century. The floors on the ground floor are terracotta, while the upstairs has wooden parquet flooring. All the old ceiling beams have been retained. Luisa has a very large entrance hall with a fireplace and a dining table for 12 people. This leads through an arch to two interconnecting living rooms with sofas, TV and DVD. At the other end of the large entrance hall/living room is a new, fully fitted kitchen with all appliances including dishwasher. There are also a laundry room and separate bathroom on the ground floor.

Upstairs is a large double bedroom with a double bed, a further very large double bedroom with double bed and an ensuite bathroom with a shower, bidet, loo and basin. There are two more double rooms each with twin beds and there is a further bathroom with shower and bath. The bedroom furniture throughout is wood, brand new and very tasteful. Some of the doors to the upstairs rooms have attractive wooden panelling and there are modern prints and paintings in all the rooms.

Outside there are terraces and a table seating 10 people. There is a pergola along the front of the house.
