Loro piceno

Loro Piceno is a large Italian villa that welcomes family and friends with its gentle mix of traditional features and modern comforts in a beautiful setting.

Loro Piceno is a traditional Italian villa in the hills of Le Marche. Perfectly placed in a private setting, yet close to several historic towns and the beaches on the Adriatic coast, the property comfortably accommodates a large group.

Carefully renovated to retain original features such as barrel-vaulted ceilings, wooden beams and cotto floors, the light and spacious interior includes furniture and lighting by design brands such as Vitra, EMU and Foscarini.

There are six bedrooms and five bathrooms in the main villa and a further double en-suite in the separate guest house by the pool. This being Italy, food takes pride of place and guests have the luxury of a built-in pizza oven in the sleek indoor kitchen as well as a covered outdoor kitchen with a large Weber gas BBQ.

There is so much space for guests – from the vast sofas and dining table inside, to the sunloungers by the pool, the long dining table on the veranda and the various lounge areas in the garden.

The house, garden and pool offer multiple distractions and possibilities to relax and recharge. The fabulous location also means guests can easily explore the vineyards, countryside, coastline and local towns of this attractive region.
