Abruzzo is the least populated region of Italy offering 129 km of beaches, wonderful mountains, including the highest peaks in Italy outside of the Alps, and rolling hills between the coast and the uplands. 30% of the region is national park and offers some of the most remote & beautiful scenery in southern Europe. The house is about half way between the sandy beaches, bars & restaurants of Pineto & Pescara and the Gran Sasso mountains and national park which offer skiing, walking, climbing, horse or bike riding or just a great place to picnic. In spring the high plateaus are famous for acres of wild flowers and in autumn the huge beech forests are a profusion of colour. History buffs will find 80 castles, beautiful medieval villages & towns as well as Roman & pre-Roman remains. Fresh pasta & bread are made daily in the village and local farms offer cheese, olive oil, & meats. Our local winery is becoming internationally recognised yet still offers robust reds for about €1 a litre.
