Houses in Marche have all the necessary qualities to give the people who live there unique experiences and emotions of arts, history, nature and delicious food in a timeless frame.
The region “Le Marche”. What does the only Italian region in the plural offer? First of all, the idea of the plural: a unique landscape, sometimes underestimated, from the open countryside going up towards high mountains and then going down again to the blue coast in very few kilometers. You can experience all this and even more, if you choose one among the houses in Marche to enjoy your holiday in a second house, or maybe choosing to live a quiet life. The region offers magical views, medieval borgos with original city walls, small pearls that we at Marche Country Homes would like to introduce. Here is a very short list of several fascinating scenarios that you can enjoy in Marche.
CINGOLI
The borgo of Cingoli is located in the province Macerata and is called the “balcony of the region Marche” because of its privileged position, where you can look over the stunning panorama of Marche down to the Adriatic Sea, upon the Mount Circe. Its origin is medieval; Cingoli keeps an old town that is rich in traditions, churches and ancient palazzi. The city offers many open-air activities, so that you can enjoy its natural landscape. In July, you should not miss the historical reconstruction named “Cingoli 1848”.
STAFFOLO
Staffolo is located in the province of Ancona upon a hill, at 442 meters above sea level and it is aptly named the “balcony of Vallesina”, since it overlooks the fertile valley of river Esino. You can enjoy an enviable panorama and the small municipality was certified “Bandiera Arancione” (i.e. a certification rewarded by Touring Club Italiano to the most evocative Italian borgos with less than 15.000 inhabitants). The medieval walls that surround Staffolo are partly original and have a particular shape, and its churches are some of the most important cultural heritage in town. The municipality is well known for the excellent local wine Verdicchio – world famous white wine produced in the region Marche – and in the third week of August you should not miss the “Festa del Verdicchio”, i.e. a festival that celebrates the excellent white wine Verdicchio.
MONDAVIO
Mondavio is one of the beauties in the province of Pesaro – Urbino, immersed in cultural heritage, Renaissance memories and its Signoria of the Middle Ages. It was rewarded “Bandiera Arancione”. Its urban structure is astonishing, since it is similar to the concept of Leonardo Da Vinci’s and Francesco di Giorgio Martini’s Living Body. You can look over the Mount Catria and Mount Nerone, the historical river Metauro and river Cesano. There are several churches and ancient palazzi, although the greatest cultural architectural heritage in Mondavio is the monumental Rocca Roveresca.
