Sei Camini or "Six Chimneys" is a traditional Marchigiana Casa Colonica, located in the heart of the much sought after ‘Golden Triangle’ region of Le Marche, Italy.
This area of outstanding natural beauty is just fifteen minutes from the stunning Sibillini Mountains, yet it is less than an hour from the sandy beaches of the Riviera Adriatica.
Sei Camini offers spacious accomodation (420m2) over two distinct self-contained properties connected by a loggia (communal entrance hall). Properties can be rented separately outside of school summer holidays.
The properties will sleep up to 18 people in comfort: The Casa Grande sleeps 12 (two double bedrooms, three twin bedrooms and a sofa bed in the 2nd floor sitting room) and the Casa Piccola (one mezzanine king size bedroom,one double bedroom and one twin bedroom)sleeps 6.
Both houses have spacious sitting and dining areas with numerous French doors to the gardens. Kitchens are fully equipped with dishwashers, ovens, hobs, microwave etc
Recently modernised yet retaining many original features, the houses are built of honey coloured sandstone that reflects the Italian sun. This keeps the inside cool during the balmy summer months yet insulates the property during winter.
The property is set in over 2 hectares of rolling meadows and gardens. Al fresco dining is a real pleasure with beautiful teak tables (extending to 3.5m) and chairs for up to 20 people.
Deciduous hilly woodland (full of delightful birdsong)borders the property to the west.
From June the fireflies, frogs and crickets will entertain you with their very own 'Son et Lumière' show!
The views to the north and south are across unspoilt hills and valleys and at dawn, the hilltop villages of Monte San Martino and Penna San Giovanni are silhouetted against the long view of the Roman city of Fermo.
To top it all, there is a wonderful swimming pool to keep cool during those hot, lazy days.
The swimming pool is in full sunshine all day, but wisteria covered pergolas and mature willow trees, not to mention umbrellas, provide welcome shade. The pool slopes gently from Roman Steps, has a ledge for non swimmers and is only deep in the centre. Pool temperatures usually exceed 25°C during the summer months.
Sei Camini commands an imposing position at just over 550m above sea level. At night, the stars are breathtaking and the twinkling views of the distant hill villages are best savoured with a chilled glass of local verdicchio!
