Sun-kissed from dawn til dusk, this beautifully restored country farmhouse is situated just outside the Sibillini National Park. The house which lies close to the charming village of Colmurano sleeps up to 10 people, with 3 double rooms, 2 twin bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. Any of the rooms may be expanded with another single bed which means the full capacity is 13. There is a large fully-fitted kitchen with traditional fireplace. There is also a spacious garage for games (table tennis etc.) The 50 cm thick walls keep the house cool in summer and warm in winter. There is an above ground swimming pool 4.5 x 4.5m which is in a private but sunny area in the garden behind the house.
Casa Dei Monti is situated just outside the beautiful medieval walled town of Colmurano, which lies halfway between the Sibillini mountains and the Adriatic coast. The elevated position of the house allows stunning views of the surrounding countryside. It has unequalled views over the mountains, rolling hills, valleys and hill towns in the area, and the Adriatic. The house is easily accessible by the A14 motorway.

Colmurano is characteristic of this wonderfully hilly area. Chosen by the ancient Romans as a place of rest, many archaeological places are still being discovered in nearby Urbisaglia. During the summer there are numerous artistic activities and culinary festivals (esp. the International Street Festival in July, see www.artistrada.it ). For those who enjoy genuine gastronomic flavours of the land, there are plenty of opportunties to try them with the numerous restaurants and trattorie, and the festivals of the surrounding towns and villages, and the cellars where the art of wine-making respects all the charisma and tradition of the grape harvest of old.

The location of the house allows you to plan cultural day trips. From Colmurano just 30 minutes by car will get you to the mountains (Sarnano- thermal baths and ski centre during winter), or to the sea (Civitanova - Conero Coast ). The Abbey of Fiastra (5 minutes away) lies in a Nature Reserve on the edge of a large forest (see www.abbadiafiastra.net) . At Urbisaglia (also 5 minutes) lies the Archaeological Park of Urbs Salvia, with its Roman ampitheatre, open theatre, temple and acqueduct. 20 minutes away is the beautiful city of Macerata, with its annual open air Opera festival (see www.sferisterio.it). Other places of interest: Caves of Frasassi, Recanati (birth city of G. Leopardi) Loreto, Camerino Caldarola, Assisi.
