Villa Del Piero

About this property

Villa Del Piero is a charming, traditional villa and annexe, located in Le Marche for up to 16 guests.

In the main villa, the open-plan kitchen, dining and living areas allow for comfortable, convivial living, whilst the seven bedrooms and bathrooms provide some privacy at the end of the day. There’s an additional small kitchen on the top floor, perfect for making morning beverages. Furthermore, a ground floor annexe can accommodate two guests, complete with its own kitchen and living space for added ease of living. 

Outside, guests can truly unwind in the hot tub or on one of the loungers admiring the cherry and olive trees in the family farm and panoramic countryside views. The garden is also decorated with colourful flowers including roses and yucca plants. When you’ve had enough relaxing, the large pool is perfect for cooling down and burning any excess energy. As the day draws in, enjoy a glass of wine on the outdoor terrace, before sitting down to a delicious al-fresco meal, lovingly prepared on the barbecue. Villa Del Piero has all the necessary mod-cons you would wish for at the end of the day, such as satellite TV and air-conditioning.

Villa Del Piero is within easy reach of a number of historic villages, including nearby beautiful Mondavio (3km) where you will find restaurants, cafes and bars. The Adriatic coast is a short drive away and there are several family-friendly beaches like those in Marotta (18km) and Senagallia (25km) accessible within half an hour.

Further afield, the Frassasi Caves (46km) make for an interesting day out with children or the city of Urbino (43km), rich in art and history, which can both be reached in less than an hour.

Villa del Piero is set in the Le Marche region of eastern Italy, known for its rolling countryside and historic hilltop settlements. It's located just on the edge of a small village with a handful of useful amenities such as a bakery, restaurant and post office.

A 5-minute drive (3km) will lead you to up the hill to the local village of Mondavio, where you’ll find a selection of restaurants, bars and small shops. Picturesque and steeped in history, Mondavio’s fortified walls date back to the 15th century. There is also a well-preserved castle and bell tower. Do not miss the Renaissance-style banquet held every August or the celebration of the grape harvest in November if visiting during these months.

Corinaldo (8km) is another village on Villa del Piero’s doorstep. Check out the piaggia – a stairway through the ancient centre of the village, claimed to be one of the most beautiful of its kind in Italy.

The nearest beach is in Marotta (18km), around a 20-minute drive by car. Rent a sun lounger and parasol from one of the many beachside lidos – perfect for relaxing whilst the kids create their own fun. And when everyone starts to feel peckish, the town of Marotta has plenty of restaurants to sample the local cuisine (followed by some gelato of course!) Alternatively, head to Senagallia’s spiaggia di velluto (velvet beach) in just under half an hour’s drive (25km), which boasts 13km of fine golden sand.

A day trip to the city of Urbino (43km) is also highly recommended for its mix of history and art. An example of this is the National Gallery, held inside the ancient Palazzo Ducale. Here, you can see works by the likes of Urbino-born Raphael and Titian.
