Perks for the Parents

Set on a hilltop with views of the stunning Adriatic coast, this 4-bedroom Italian villa has a gym and heated infinity pool, plus a variety of services for luxurious living from dawn ‘til dusk. It sleeps up to 8. Book together with The Villa Castelle for up to 22 guests. For parents who would like time off from the housework that comes with the usual rental villa, this is the ultimate escape. The estate’s additional luxe services (additional fee) includes prosecco on arrival, a daily Continental breakfast prepared, served and cleared away, fresh flowers, glossy magazines, housekeeping and daily fresh towels laid out at the pool. A concierge service can arrange everything for you from gourmet catering with a private chef, cooking classes, travel excursions to babysitting and bookings at one of the area’s Michelin-star restaurants (there are 9 in Le Marche). For your personal wellness, yoga and Pilates classes are available, as well as beauty treatments, massages and sound healing. They’ll even keep the kids amused too with fun activities such cooking lessons, kids’ yoga, tennis lessons, sailing lessons, bike rental, and more.

Why Kids Love it

Villa Castelletta has landscaped gardens, a family room with Netflix and an outdoor pool (that is not heatable) that comes with floating beanbags. There’s also a tennis court open all year round, a yoga studio and a fire pit for toasting marshmallows as the sun goes down. The estate grows its own fruit and vegetables and makes olive oil from the 400 olive trees; a perfect place to create the best treasure hunt ever. Not forgetting a pizza oven, a ping pong table and a table football table. Why not bike down to the local town and beach (car free for most of the way)? There are a few bars and kids’ playgrounds en route. The 13th-century old town of Civitanova Alta is a 15-minute walk and here you can enjoy delicious homemade gelato. The town of Civitanova Marche (7 mins by car) has outdoor trampoline parks, mini golf, a small water park, sailing classes, time at the beach, walks, 4-person bike on a designated bike path, and a summer funfair called Luna Park.

Villa Castelletta is set amidst rolling hills and vineyards in a 9-acre estate with its own olive grove. The coast is just 10 minutes away. You’ll be located outside the medieval village of Civitanova Alta in the region of Le Marche. One of Italy’s most unspoiled and picturesque regions, Le Marche is nestled between the dramatic Sibillini mountains and the coastline of the Adriatic Sea, offering all the natural beauty and rich cultural heritage of Tuscany, but without the crowds. This family-friendly destination has plenty to do including paddleboarding on the sea; learning to sail (10 mins away from the villa); bike-riding on a purpose built bike path to the sea; exploring the largest underwater cave network in Europe at Fracassi Caves; and hiking in the natural coastal reserve of Conero area or Sibilini mountains. Additional experiences can also be arranged in the local area such as truffle hunting, boat excursions, cycling tours and many more. Please contact host for further information and pricing.

Style Notes

Pared down elegance and modern luxury. The estate's Villa Castelle and Villa Castelletta are both restful retreats, equipped for special gatherings with family and friends. Furnished to a high standard, you’ll find an inspiring mix of contemporary and classic design such as crystal pendant chandeliers, distressed bronze coffee tables and ceramics. Natural stone floors sit harmoniously with restful color schemes, while reclaimed antique materials contrast beautifully with unique pieces of art and sculpture. The living spaces have BOSE built-in speaker systems with Bluetooth connectivity and floor-to-ceiling glass doors connect the outside and inside living spaces. We love the hammocks near the outside eating area and outdoor kitchen; the handmade, bespoke beds designed by local artisans in Le Marche; and the wonderful linen-covered pagoda with olive-grove views.

Le Marche, Italy

Italy’s hidden secret

Bordering Umbria to the northeast and running 100 miles along the Adriatic Coast to the border with San Marino, Le Marche is Tuscany’s lesser known cousin. Expect medieval hill towns, Renaissance art, open air opera and rustic trattoria plus a wonderful coastline. Kids will love the water parks, Dinosaur Park, caves and butterfly gardens, along with quirky local events, including wheelbarrow racing with frogs.
