Adriatic Oleander

Holiday Rental Description

From the peaks of Majella and Gran Sasso to the dazzling Adriatic Sea, the panoramas from this hilltop hideaway stretch far and wide. The location is spot-on for coastal adventures – you're just 3 kilometres from Silvi Marina's beach and 20 kilometres from Pescara.

But with a birds-eye view of Abruzzo's rolling landscape from the garden, it'll be hard to tear yourself away. Whether you're sipping espresso in the morning breeze, splashing away afternoons in the pool or dining alfresco as the evening sun sinks below the horizon, you'll relish every glimpse of that scenery. We know we would.

Inside is a lovely mishmash of styles – think antiques, Palladian-inspired architecture and gleaming marble floors. Snuggle up around the fireplace for a post-sightseeing snooze, hunker down in the study when you need to work from home or just spread out in the comfortable living area with a glass of wine and plan tomorrow's activities.
