Awesome Abruzzo Abode
A lovely, spacious house with everything you need, including a pool to keep you cool and spectacular country surroundings to replenish your spirits. Situated in a verdant valley with views to the snow capped mountains and hill-side villages in one direction and fields in the other, the location is fantastic if you want to get away from the 'hustle and bustle' yet have all the amenities. If so inclined, the nearby villages feature many great restaurants and cafe/bars as well as shops, bakeries, butchers, etc. We ate so well it was incredible and most of it was locally raised/produced. Then there was the local wine, which was plentiful, good and inexpensive! The house was in very good order and well supplied with plenty of space in the bedrooms, wonderful bathrooms, and a very large common living/dining/kitchen area. We spent three weeks in Europe (Athens, Santorini, Provence and Abruzzo) and this week was an absolute highlight!! We hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

Perfect escape
We had a family wedding in the area, so we booked a week at Villa Rocca as it looked ideal - we were right! We loved it, kids loved it, wish we'd have stayed longer. Sonia was available by phone if we needed anything - but all ran smoothly from check in to check out. Perfect.

Wonderful. Just what we wanted.
The villa is secluded and quiet, but shops and eateries are within easy reach by car. The communication with the owners was superb. Check in was easy and upon arrival the villa was very clean and very well appointed. There was a whole host of games and electronics available, as well as the beautiful pool, which is in sun all day. It is difficult to write a rave review, as it deserves, because I’d worry about the villa not being available in the future! The owners have thought of everything. If you like to be away from noise and people then this is the place for you, but the locals are very friendly and the local festivals are great. The only surprise was that on arrival the air con was metered at 1 euro for 10hrs. However, the villa is so cool (we went in 30°+), that we would put it on for 1hr before bed and that would see us through the night, with the fans, very comfortably, so it really wasn’t a problem. This is probably one of the best appointed villas that we’ve stayed in and we would love to return. You won’t be disappointed with the villa, the pool or the very helpful owners, and the surrounding scenery is stunning. Thank you.

Don’t rent this villa: first you get robbed by burglars and then by the owners!
We rented this villa in Juli 2022 with our 3 teenaged sons. It is a well-equipped house with a nice pool, although too small for 10 people. Initially we enjoyed our holiday until we got robbed. Two MacBook Air, an iPad, an ereader, a rucksack and a wallet with ID and some cash was stolen. In value more then the rent! Horrible experience! But although the owner immediately arranged for a neighbor to come over, the owner concluded, all the way from the United Kingdom, that there were no traces of burglary, without speaking to us, only to the neighbor. We did lock all the doors but did not close the shutters at the back door. And that was, according to him, the invitation for the burglars. However, those shutters can’t be locked! And when closed, they can be easily opened with a screwdriver or even simply by hand. After that opening the locked door is a piece of cake as it is a flimsy door without any security pins or solid locks, whatsoever. The owner was no help with the police although he is half Italian and speaks the language. Afterwards we got a bill for repairs to a door that was, according to the owner, not damaged! We think that the owner is responsible for offering proper security and a flimsy door and shutters that can be easily opened. Moreover if the shutters are such an important part of the security the owners should have put up a white sign as they have all over the house indicating proper use of things. The fact that we were robbed was shocking but the reaction of the owners was appalling!

About the host

Host profile image
Sonia and I both work full time; we have two young boys and have thoroughly enjoyed our holidays in Abruzzo over the last few years. We fell in love with the region when we first visited back in 2003, since then we have made Abruzzo our second home. We enjoy the relaxed pace of life we have found in Abruzzo compared to the hustle and bustle of our normal everyday lives in the UK. Every time we visit we seem to make new friends and discoveries, there is still so much more to this region of Italy we have yet to experience, I feel we have just skimmed the surface.
