The facility is decorated with period furniture and soft lighting, paintings and carpets from around the world. Under the wrought-iron patio, covered with reeds, you can relax during the hottest hours. A large one-hectare garden with olive trees, roses, and native fruit plants frames the property.
The farmhouse has five accommodations:
Room "Timilia" - Double Superior: In ancient times this was the room reserved for young newlyweds, since in peasant families when a son married it was customary to enlarge the house to accommodate the new couple. Inside this double room is a late 19th-century dresser brought as dowry by the bride.
Room "Verna" - Double Superior: Located above the old stable, in ancient times this double room was accessed by a ladder so that the animals could be checked quickly if needed. Inside you can admire an early 20th-century closet and a chest of drawers from the 1920s.
Room "Senatore Cappelli" - Triple Superior: In ancient times this room was occupied by the grandparents, but during births and weaning the new parents moved in. It was, along with the kitchen, one of the focal points of the rural Marche family. Inside is still the old desk that served as the "office" for family paperwork.
Room "Gentilrosso" - Suite: Carved out of the former grain warehouse, this spacious accommodation located in the tower of the house offers 360-degree views of the Marche countryside has the advantage of always being ventilated and illuminated.
