Agriturismo Agrimare Barba

The farmhouse is located at the foot of the hills behind the Adriatic coast, near the small town of Scerne, in the province of Teramo,just 500 m from the sea and less than an hour's drive from the mountain of Gran Sasso d'Italia.

In a privileged and panoramic position it is possible to admire at the same time the colors of the sea and the Adriatic coast and those of the Apennine massif (2.914 mt).

The tranquillity of the place, far from the city noises, together with the freshness of the air and the simplicity of the lodgings, make the farm the ideal place to spend a relaxing and pleasant vacation.

Agrimare Barba farmhouse is located among the vineyards of Collemorino and the olive groves, in the heart of the Azienda Agricola F.lli Barba, one of the most famous and extensive in the province of Teramo. Viticulture, production of fruits and vegetables, zootechny, production of olive oil and honey are the main activities of the company which also has direct selling points of its products.
Important places of the farm are the winery (located in front of the lodgings), thezootechnics
of Fontanelle and the vineyards of Collemorino, Casal Thaulero and San Lorenzo
.
The idea of the agritourism was born from the need of enhancing the territory and the rural realities already present in the company's area. For this purpose it was decided to renovate some old farmhouses dating back to the '50s, trying to keep intact their original style
. The first of these buildings, located near vineyards, is composed by sixcompletely independent apartments
.
Types of apartments
Apartment type A:
It is a large one room apartment where there is a double bed and a living room-kitchen corner, bathroom with shower box. The furnishings are simple and rational in wrought iron and solid wood. Apartment Type B: usable from 2 to 4 persons, is composed of 2 rooms, one used as a large double bedroom and the other as a living room with sofa bed and equipped kitchenette. The services are all inside the apartment with a large bathroom complete with shower.

The farmhouse is located in Scerne di Pineto, a small town overlooking the Adriatic coast. The beach of the place, pebbly and wild, is located a few hundred meters away from the accommodation and is easily accessible by car or with their own bicycles or those made available to customers.

Lovers of sandy and modern equipped beaches can instead walk about 4 or 5 km separating the farmhouse from the towns
of Roseto degli Abruzzi or Pineto
, in the north or south direction from the accommodation, where it is possible to find wide sandy beaches equipped with all bathing comforts
.
From Giulianova (about 10 Km.) and from Pescara (about 25 Km.), there are also connections with Croatia (about 180 Km.), while from Termoli (about 80 Km.) you can reach the Tremiti Islands
. The cities of Teramo and Pescara are the closest Abruzzi capitals to visit (respectively about 30 km and 20 km away) and represent two different realities: the first, ancient and traditional, with its churches, monuments and museums, the second modern and commercial, with its fashionable stores and the new and charming marina.

Abuzzo is also a land of art and secular traditions. The city of Atri
, an ancient town of Roman origin, is only 10 km away in a panoramic position on the hills overlooking the sea. Rich in history and ancient traditions, it has an artistic heritage of great importance. At half an hour's drive, in the Teramo area, it is possible to reach Castelli
, famous for its ceramics produced since the Middle Ages and sought after by every tourist. For lovers of excursions and walks in the mountain woods, we remind you that the Gran Sasso d'Italia and the Maiella mountains
are about 45 minutes away and offer some of the most evocative landscapes of the central Apennines.
Equally close is the Abruzzo National Park
, a protected oasis where it is still possible to admire animal species elsewhere extinct such as the Marsican Bear and the Golden Eagle. Worthy of a visit are also the Campotosto Lake, the Altopiano delle Rocche and the countless mountain resorts located at the foot of the Apennine massif.
The proximity to the sea gives the guests of the agriturismo a wide choice of sports and recreational activities to enjoy.

The swimming pool, the skating rink, the riding school, the tennis court, the archery are all just a few kilometers away, while for those who want to travel a little further it is also possible to reach one of the most modern golf courses in the center-south, in Brecciarola (Chieti).All the bathing activities
are also practicable, from summer swimming and Latin-American dancing courses, to beach volleyball and beach basketball etc., made available by the managers of the various establishments on the coast.
Inside the farm it is also possible to use some mountain bikes
