Description from owner

Description

Abruzzo is the place where Italians go on holiday and it is just the way they like it, off the tourist track and unchanged.It has a wealth of castles and medieval towns, 129 kilometres of sandy beaches, 21 ski areas and one third of the region is designated national and regional parks.

Villa Maieletta sits in rolling hills with the dramatic backdrop of the Maiella Mountain range in the Maiella National Park. The boutique Villa is on a quiet country lane close to the historic hill-top town of Palombaro, whose distant church bells provide an evocative reminder of past times. Our unrivalled views of the Abruzzo landscape, stunning sunsets and night skies will remain in your memory for a long time.

Come and live the Italian life. Experience and enjoy the rhythms of rural life that surround us from the porchetta van and cafe culture to events celebrating the olive and grape harvests. The festa month of August has an array of unique activities that include the wild boar festival in Pennapiedimonte, Green Fair in Fara San Martino, the Beer Festival in Limiti (1km down the road) and musical events that extend into September in historic Lanciano. Watch the fascinating array of fireflies that twinkle all around you after dark from April to June. Join us for a special olive picking holiday in November; pick your own olives and return home with the oil from the fruits of your labours. Retire to your apartment to relax and rest in a luxurious environment of classic Italian splendour.

We are situated amidst great cycling and motorcycling country, where cars are a rare sight on Saturday and Sunday mornings, as two-wheeled transport takes to the roads and tracks in the area. The Giro D'Italia frequently visits the area and the Tirreno-Adriatico passes through Guardiagrele 15 minutes away. Local drivers are particularly considerate to cyclists, recognising the prominence of the sport in Italy. We offer guided cycle and motorcycle tours, indoor parking for guests on two wheels and mountain bikes for the use of guests. Road cycles can be hired nearby.

On the 3rd weekend in June, the Maiella Fiat 500 rally comes our way, and 60 of these iconic Italian cars of the 1960s descend on the historic hill-top town of Casoli. Come on the first weekend in July and enjoy the annual Maiella mountain walk, a 5 hour trek across the peaks above us that's sponsored by local pasta makers, De Cecco. If music's your preference, the internationally-renowned Pescara Jazz festival in mid-July every year, is a short drive away.

Beautiful Italian buildings are to be found in nearby towns and villages.Our location makes it easy for you to be in the mountains in the morning, on the beach in the afternoon, and dine in the countryside under the stars. The Villa is an ideal retreat for couples, those who love the outdoor life and aficionados of architecture and history. We're perfect for your honeymoon hideaway or a romantic short break, too!

A utility room next to the apartments has washing machines, an iron and ironing board. A clothes drying rail is provided for every apartment. We provide beach towels, to give you extra space in your suitcase.
An "agroturismo" restaurant, which serves food produced almost entirely on its own land, is only 3 minutes walk from the Villa. A five-a-side football and a tennis court are available there for the use of our guests.
Owners, Kate and Stephen, live elsewhere in the grounds away from the apartments. They feel that living on site enables them to provide a complete holiday experience for guests, through their knowledge of the area and local events. They do their best to make guests feel at home, and to be a resource for advice and information, without being intrusive.
