Overview
Experience pure countryside delight at this restored church, now a villa in Le Marche. Imagine the warmth of a rustic family home with thick wooden truss beams and a stone fireplace. Church pew seating at the dinner table is a nod to this holiday villa's more sober past life. At the same time, the brightness of an airy manor pervades the gardens. At once cozy and expansive, rustic and refined, you’ll adore each perfect contradiction.
Outdoor living is encouraged here, whether beside the pool on cushioned seats (set dizzyingly on a deck above a hill), or in the lawned garden, where you might anxiously await what’s cooking in the stone oven. There are stables adjoining the property, where a professional instructor stands ready to give you private horseback riding lessons for a quite reasonable fee.
This holiday villa is located in the tiny village of Canapegna, where you’ll experience absolute peace and silence; the only sound? Birdsong. The nearest town of note is Fabriano, 3 km down the road, where restaurants, a cinema, and shops await. Less than an hour's drive will bring you to the Adriatic sea at Ancona, where you could hop a ferry to Croatia. What fun!

At the end of a unpaved path, a fantastic house is fully equipped with a lovely swimming pool. A private paradise on a hill, great place and hugely helpful host!

A beautiful house
It was a beautiful and complete house in a good location with nice views.
The house is clean and richly equipped.
Close to Fabriano, so all amenities nearby.
Paolo is a very friendly and helpful host who is always ready to answer your questions.
For the pizza oven and bbq, all necessities were present, so we used this several times.
A lovely pool and beautiful garden, we enjoyed our stay. -
A wonderful place
A wonderful place, perfect in every way! We will 100% be back!
Thank you Paolo! -
A very nice view with a beautiful garden
The House is located on a mountain with a very nice view with a beautiful garden. We did stay with 2 families (4 adults and 3 smaller kids, and this works good if you can accept to have a double bed in the living room. The flat is good equipped and we did not miss anything.
Paolo is a very helpful landlord who prepared everything very well and he gave us good recommendations - due to the nice pool, we did not do too many sightseeing tours though.

We had a lovely stay.
We had a lovely stay. The pool, garden, and outdoor space was perfect for our family. It is as described - you’re in complete seclusion. The house remains fairly cool despite the heat, though there is an air conditioning unit upstairs if needed. Paolo was very helpful and made sure we had everything we needed. He also provided us with many suggestions for the area. We were very happy with our stay!
