Photos and Description of the Vacri vacation villa rental
Spacious 3 bedroom apartment sleeps 6 in rural location set in its own grounds

Self-contained apartment in a recently renovated and extended 100 year old villa with all the modern facilities you would expect set in 1/2 acre of olive groves and fruit trees. There is a spacious sitting room with TV, DVD player and CD/radio/MP3 player, a separate kitchen/dining room. 2 double bedrooms with access to a balcony and terrace, a twin bedded room and spacious modern bathroom. There are several terraces around the house where you can relax, sun bathe, eat and drink with a full range of garden furniture. There is ample off road parking space. The area is peaceful and quiet apart from the odd tractor! The house is on the edge of the hilltop village of Vacri which has all essential amenities including shops, bank, post office, bars, cafes, chemist and church. There are lots of restaurants, pizzerias and trattorias within a short drive as well as a small shopping comple

More about our house: We have taken great care during the renovation and extension of our country villa to retain its traditional feel. There are very thick walls in the oldest parts, vaulted ceiling in the kitchen and timber shutters on all windows. The apartment is furnished to a high standard with a blend of traditional and contemporary design. The pictures are all my own photographs.

A contemporary designed extension harmonises with the old and provides additional rooms, a beech wood stair and great terraces for outdoor living and enjoyment.

The house has new electrics and central heating throughout with solar heating for hot water.

The house also contains a second smaller apartment mainly for our own use

We produce our own high quality olive oil and provide our guests with a bottle as well as complimentary wines from the local region.

We have recently added an en suite shower room to a ground floor double bedroom

Rome!: For something different you can make a day trip to Rome which is only 200kms (2 hours) drive away by easily accessible motorways. It is a great drive through the amazingly scenic Appenine mountain range or if you prefer you can travel by train from Pescara.

On arrival home ..."The depressing British Summer weather that greeted us only served as an early reminder of how wonderful our stay in Italy was!
Thanks again for your very kind and welcoming hospitality which added to our excellent holiday in the Abruzzo."

Casa Collina

  • Submitted: Feb 16, 2011
  • Stayed: Nov 2010
Set in a secluded area and the very end of a well made road, we had a marvellous time. Many properties promise but Casa Colina delivers, with a fully functional kitchen, great lounge area and large double shower in the bathroom!

We were in the property in November so any deficiencies with the house/heating would have shown up. It was warm, cosy and welcoming every time we returned. We met the neighbours– nice friendly people who did their best to speak a bit of English as our Italian is basic.

A relaxing time was had by us. A glowing reference to all including the ladies who take care of everything for the owners. It was our first time at Casa Ciollina but we will be back.

Lastly we assure you that we aren’t in anyway related to the owners, when something is good you should let others know!

Casa Collina

  • Submitted: Feb 16, 2011
  • Stayed: Jul 2010
"We enjoyed our stay in Casa Collina very much. The house is typical for the region and being located midway between mountains, the sea and many Abbruzian villages provided us with all options to fill our days. Especailly the beach in Francavilla was easy to reach and both children and parents enjoyed the sand and the water very much.
On our way back we would either enter a local restaurant or get fresh local groceries and prepare a meal in the spacious kitchen of the house. Afterwards we would sit on one of the terraces around the house and enjoy a
good glass of wine, local cheese and other local specialities.
For a change we visited the nearby Majella mountains and we went to visit one of the villages each of which having plenty of local specialities and (in August) music festivals making you wanting to stay till the end of the
night...
In short: A great area, a spacious house and very friendly hosts so we will certainly come back to see more!
