Borgo Tranquillo - Self-catering in Marche
Via Costa 132, 60011 Arcevia, Ancona
Marche,
Italia
Wind your way up from the Adriatic at Ancona, to minimalist perfection perched on a hill. Float in the pool, pick the lavender, nod off in a hammock slung between the trees. Harmony prevails in colour and form, there’s a 'sunset bench' high on the hill, and you’ll never, ever tire of the view.
Frank and Ariana have realised a dream, to transform a sleepy hamlet ('borgo') into a place of warmth, luxury and calm. An old barn has become a poolside spa, with a sauna, a hammam and a lovely clubhouse upstairs.
Follow the winding road to hilltop Arcevia, whose cafes, shops and palazzos are a 15-minute drive. Enjoy lunch at the little Ristorante Pinocchio. Or head off for the sands of Senigallia (45km), and swims and seafood straight from the ocean. Return to your loft-style apartment (or secluded villa) and relax on your balcony with a glass of Verdicchio di Jesi.

Local points of interest from Frank & Ariane Andrew:
Punti d'interesse locali da
Frank & Ariane Andrew:
- Borgo Tranquillo offers peace and tranquillity in a breathtaking 360 degree hill top setting. A few minutes outside Arcevia, one of the 'Borghi più belli d'Italia' one of Italy's most beautiful villages, with all necessary shops and amenities.
- Clubhouse with Bar, Library, Spa, heated Pool, Boccia Court, 1.5 mile nature path through woodlands + orchards set in 15 acres. Watch spectacular sunsets on top the hill at the sunset bench with fire pit - you may never want to leave
- In addition to fresh seasonal fruit and vegetables from our organic gardens, the kitchens are stocked with olive oil, local honey, home made jams and all the essentials like tea, coffee, salt, pepper, Balsamico and of course some local Spumante
- In 2018 to reduce plastic waste, we installed the award winning Blupura Water system, offering still and sparkling water in reusable Glass bottles - over 15000 L used so far - a saving of at least 10000 plastic bottles - every little helps!
- Frasassi Caves - 10 miles away - a must! This limestone kingdom sculptured in the rock, y splendid sceneries in stalactite, stalagmite, and swords of alabaster and crystal lakes. The Grotta Grande del Vento is large enough to house the Duomo in Milan.
