 This breathtaking region offers a true reflection of quintessentially Italian living at its very best, where authenticity and quality are core values for both locals and visitors alike.

Le Marche has everything you could possibly want from an authentic Italian escape. A combination of great food, fine wines, heritage and history, culture and climate make it a savvy choice for discerning travellers wanting to get away from the more well-known destinations. Le Marche is a true hidden gem, an unspoilt region rich in local history, artisan culture and, of course, winemaking. Offering a stunning combination of pristine beaches, snow-capped mountains and medieval villages, Le Marche is a magical holiday destination that captures the essence of authentic Italian life. 

The region has so much to offer in terms of activities and excursions and provides year-round entertainment for all. Endless blue flag golden beaches, yacht-filled marinas and picture-postcard fishing villages provide fun in the sun while the majestic Sibillini mountains provide the backdrop for hiking, biking and climbing and winter sports such as skiing and snow-walking. There are a number of golf courses within easy driving distance and one just on our doorsteps in Massignano.

Regular Flights into Ancona, Pescara and Perugia make Le Marche super accessible and the larger international airports at Bologna and Rome are also within easy reach. Our owners, who come from every corner of the globe, find travelling to Le Marche a very straightforward experience.

Situated in the delightful, undiscovered region Le Marche, Appassionata’s properties nestle gently in mountain hills and perch amongst hilltop retreats.
