Enjoy a relaxing holiday in our big organic farm in Northern Le Marche, in sight of the UNESCO Heritage site of Urbino. Perfect for touring Central italy (Gubbio, Arezzo, San Sepolcro, Città di Castello and San Marino are easy daytrips from the farm), exploring the beautiful off-the-beaten-track hilltop towns of Le Marche (such as San Leo, Mondavio, Piobbico and many more), walking or horse riding along the hills and the beautiful countryside (where ancient oaks are still protected as in the times of the Dukes of Montefeltro) or simply relax by the pool, enjoying the sweeping view of the landscape. Our two apartments stand one near the main building, the pool and the stables and one about 500 metres away and include a sitting/dining room, separate kitchen, double bedroom with comfortable queensize bed and large storage area and a complete bathroom with tub/shower (with screen) and washing machine, the windows have mosquito nets. The kitchen is complete with fridge and freezer, small oven (a real oven, just smaller), dishwasher, italian and percolator coffee pot, toaster and all the utensils, crockery and tableware that you need to prepare and enjoy your meals at the Casina. You’ll also find a welcome basket with some items from the farm storeroom for you not to miss our wine, jams, juices, bread and fresh organic free-range eggs. Step outside and you’ll find yourself in your own private bit of garden with deck with chairs, table and umbrella for you to enjoy your meals al fresco or sunbath. A free computer with dsl connection is available for you to use in the main house and there’s a wifi connection by the pool. In the Casina you will find some information on the area, maps, a list with our favourite restaurants inthe area, best grocery shops and market days.
