Villa Bussola
Le Marche:
Le Marche is a quite unknown and still virgin region with medieval villages and cities between the Apennines and the Adriatic Sea in Central Italy.
The landscape has a varied flora and fauna. The hills here are rolling with vine and olive yards, maize and corn fields and are perfect for walking, cycling and horse riding tours. Also by car you can make beautiful tours. For motorbikers is Le Marche a paradise! Twisting roads lead you to beautifull restored fortified villages on the top of the hills, inviting to be discovered.
In each village there is something to go through or to visit: narrow alleys where it seems to get back in time, castles, palazzi, monasteries, abbeys, churches and museums, or just enjoying a nice wine or an 'espresso' in the local bar.
The coast has large sandy beaches and idyllic bays (Ancona). The authentic fishermen and seaside villages are quite, but can be very lively in August when the Italians enjoy their vacations.
Many cities have kept their authentic character. Especially Urbino is a cultural place to visit. But also Ascoli Piceno, Loreto, Cagli and Fano are beautiful.
Perugia and Assisi in the region Umbria can be reached by car in only two hours following the beautiful way through the Apennines. A stop at the caves of Frasassi is unforgettable and refreshing in hot summertime.
In spring and summer you can enjoy the concerts and opera shows, which are organised not only in the cities, but also in the little villages.
August is the month of the lively village festivals.
The cuisine of Le Marche offers a range of local dishes with, of course mostly at the sea, wonderful fish.
But also wild boar, pasta, olives, truffles, fresh fruit and vegetables.
Good DOC wines (Verdichio, Vernaccia, Rosso Conero) can be tasted in the many enoteca's.
