Independent apartment in restored Farmhouse (#25013)

Description of the Camerino vacation apartment rental

The apartment has been recently restored and newly furnished. It is on two-levels, each with its own independent entry. On the ground floor is the kitchen and dining-room. The kitchen is on a slightly raised platform that separates it from the dining and lounge area. A spiral staircase leads to the upper floor that contains the double bedroom with a ceiling fan, the bathroom with a shower, and a small lobby that leads onto the apartment's balcony overlooking the garden to the swimming pool. From the two windows in the bedroom, there is a magnificent view of the ancient hill town of Camerino. The apartment also has its own garden terrace. If required, a single bed can be provided either in the upstairs lobby or in the lounge. The self-contained apartment forms part of the large farmhouse occupied by the owners. Apartment guests have shared use of the 12m x 6m swimming pool. The spiral staircase makes this apartment suitable only for children over 10.years old.

Area Description

Despite recent publicity, the Marche is still one of the least visited tourist areas in Italy. Our farmhouse is situated in open countryside within sight of Camerino. This walled, medieval city has a population of less than 5,000. Yet it has its own Archbishop and is the home of a university that claims to be the second oldest in Europe. It is difficult, when sitting at a table outside the bar in the main piazza or when strolling along the narrow streets, not to feel you have wandered into an elaborate film-set. This is an ideal base for exploring this fascinating area. Within easy reach, you can be walking in the Sibylline National Park, having a picnic beside a large mountain lake, sunbathing on an Adriatic beach, visiting the cultural centres of Urbino and Assisi, or finding an unexpected art treasure in a village church. Of course, if you prefer, you can laze, drinking a glass of the excellent local wine, in the silence of our extensive garden or beside our swimming pool.

The house is at the end of a private road and so it is a peaceful haven with no sounds of passing traffic and, as we are about 450m above sea level, the air is pure and healthy. Although there can be many sunny days, January to March is usually dry and chilly with a light snowfall in early January. (Bolognola, the nearest ski resort, is only a forty-minute drive away.) In April, May and early June, there can be rainy days but Spring is a fantastic season - fruit trees blossom, the sun frequently shines, wild flowers blanket the fields and verges, the birds sing and, at night, the fire-flies glow. From mid-June to early September, it is normally very hot, sunny and dry. Autumn, with its burnished and russet foliage, is a magical time. It does sometime rain and, as the days shorten, it becomes cooler. It is the ideal time for walking and exploring. Our swimming pool is normally open from early-June until early October. For the rest of the year, the pool is covered and not used.
