Photos and Description of the Abruzzo vacation villa rental

A beautiful renovated farmhouse on the edge of a large village in the foothills of the Maiella mountains. It provides the perfect holiday hideaway in a wooded landscape. At the end of a secluded lane, it has stunning panoramic views in 3 directions, of Lake Bomba, the mountains and the Sangro valley with the sea beyond. The house is surrounded on all sides by an old olive grove of over 1 acre, ensuring privacy. You can have a barbecue on the terrace overlooking your pool,which measures 9m x 4.5m and nestles between the trees. Thick walls and wooden shutters protect the interior from temperature extremes. The interior has tiled floors and white walls. Most rooms have vaulted ceilings or wooden beams. Upstairs, enjoy a meal or a glass of wine on the large balcony while taking in the view. You can pick mulberries and figs when in season. (Advert for 4 bedroom property includes owners apartment.)

Casolare della Quercia is on the outskirts of Roccascalegna, a large village famous for one of the most spectacular castles in Abruzzo. The mountains provide a breathtaking backdrop to the village. There are several local shops, café/bars, and a number of good restaurants and agriturismi in the area, offering local food and wine at reasonable prices. Beaches within easy reach are good for swimming, safe for children. At Fossacessia you can see the famous trabocchi, traditional stilt-constructions suspended above the sea for fishing. The hills and small villages around Lake Bomba are well worth exploring, and there are many vantage points which afford stunning views of the lake. A short drive away is Cascate del Verde, the second highest waterfall in Italy. Historic towns such as Guardiagrele and Sulmona are within easy reach, through areas of outstanding natural beauty. In the summer, there are many traditional festivals, often involving local Italian food and live music.
