3 Bedroom House to Rent in Italy
Contrada Santanello, Vestea - Montebello, Pescara, Abruzzo
(Italy)
Nestled between two small villages within The Gran Sasso
National Park of Pescara, La Montanara (Italian for 'The Mountain
Girl') offers modern and comfortable 3 bedroom accommodation
ideally situated for a visit to the Abruzzo region of Italy.
Location
The house is high enough in the mountain area to provide
fascinating views without being inaccessible or remote. It stands
on a no through road just outside the village of Vestea, and within
a few minutes drive of Montebello where there are more shops and
bars. There are four restaurants within one kilometre of the house,
including one just a few hundred yards away. The main local town of
Penne is 20 minutes drive away, and Pescara itself, the principal
regional town can be accessed within 40 minutes. Ski resorts are
nearby, and the extensive beach resort is less than 30 kilometres
distance from the house.
Accommodation
There are two double bedrooms, a smaller bedroom which is big
enough for two single beds, a bathroom with shower and an open-plan
living room with kitchen. Balconies run the full width of the house
at the front, providing a place to sit and admire the panoramic
views of the countryside including the Maiella mountain range,
right to the sea. There is a garden with a patio area at the rear,
and secure parking. Full central heating and double glazing ensure
warmth in case of a cold snap, and for added cosiness, you can burn
logs in the imposing fireplace. The fully fitted kitchen includes
oven, hob, fridge/freezer and washing machine.
Getting there
Ryanair operate direct and very low-cost flights from Stansted
airport to Pescara, which is a typical small-scale regional
airport. You can hire a car with Avis or Hertz, and it is a
half-hour drive from the airport to La Montanara. Roads are free
from traffic and driving in the Abruzzo region is a real pleasure.
Alternatively you can fly to Ancona and drive down the Adriatic
coast, or fly to Rome from where it is a two hour drive on the
Rome-Pescara autostrada.
