"Among the best self-catering accommodations I have ever stayed in." - Chris from Massachusetts
Roundabout our Le Marche holiday home
The interior of Le Marche region (check out our location map) is one
of the least developed and most unspoilt in Italy.
It is an area known to Italian tourists and an increasing number of international holiday-makers. Sarnano and
San Ginesio, the nearest towns to our holiday accommodation, have both
been officially listed among the 'most beautiful villages' in Italy. Both towns have also earned
the Orange Flag from the Touring Club of Italy
for the high standards of their tourist facilities. The local populace is hospitable, welcoming and patient with those fumbling with basic Italian (our
personal experience).
Holiday activities in Le Marche
Casa Carotondo is in the central Le Marche in the province of Macerata conveniently located near the picturesque town of Sarnano with its shops, market
and other tourist facilities. A number of important medieval
towns with their respective cultural riches such as Macerata,
Tolentino and
Ascoli Piceno are within easy reach. The
Sibillini Mountains are close
offering opportunities for walking, cycling and many other sports.
If all that sounds too much just drive up to the mountain passes, have a picnic and take in the views.
The Adriatic coast of Le Marche
with its blue flag beaches also beckons. An excellent location for watersports, lounging in the sun or trying out the excellent beach-side fish restaurants.
Casa Carotondo offers the ideal location for a holiday of culture, activity or peaceful relaxation in Le Marche, Italy.
Located in central Italy, in the region of Le Marche (the Marches),
Casa Carotondo offers two newly furnished self-catering holiday apartments for rental throughout the year. The holiday apartments, which provide holiday accommodation for up to 9 people, have been
sensitively renovated to a high standard in the traditional Le Marche style with environmental sustainability and modern comfort in mind. Holiday apartment
Priora has one bedroom providing a holiday home for up to 3 people.
While holiday apartment Vettore has two bedrooms and can accommodate up to 6 people.
Surrounding the holiday apartments is a large garden on two levels
for sole use of our guests to relax and enjoy the beautiful Le Marche countryside of Italy. Casa Carotondo, a former farmhouse constructed of sandstone, sits atop a small hill surrounded by farm and woodland. The views of the
Sibillini Mountains are spectacular.
Le Marche food, wine and more
All towns in Le Marche organise festas and various other forms of entertainment most especially during the summer holiday season
but also throughout the rest of the year.There is a wide choice of restaurants in the area offering the traditional Cucina Marchigiana at reasonable prices.
