Pescocostanzo house rentals

This house is very clean and close to the piazza and castle. Surrounded with beautiful views of the surroundings and mountains and castle. Every services can be easily reached on foot and so was the parking near by the castle. The house is warm, the beds comfortable and so was the living area , kitchen was clean with plenty of kitchen space. Anna was Very welcoming and friendly. We will certainly be back to stay again.

This home is located in one of the most beautiful places I have visited in Italy. Pacentro is friendly and delightful and the mountains and valleys spectacular. Sitting in the garden for breakfast and dinner was unforgettable with the ever changing light and mist on Mount Majella as a backdrop. Parking is surprisingly easy and safe provided you take the correct small back road up to the house. We spent much of our week there in both Majella and Abruzzo National Parks and visiting the rare Romanesque churches with their 12th and 13th century paintings. If you are interested in such things then I suggest San Tommaso Becket (near Caramanico Terme) with its sculptured lintel and frescoes, San Pietro ad Oratorium - in a forest not far from Capestrano (may need to ring the number on the gate for the friendly volunteer to open) with very special Byzantine inspired pantocrator Christ frescoe, Santa Maria ad Cryptas (in Fossia) with intact 13th cent frescoes cycle) and Bominaco church and Oratorio, with 13th century fresco cycle (ring number on gate for a guide). If these don't interest you then the many spectacular hill top towns may. All up a week wasn't enough in this great part of Italy as there is so much to do and see.

The apartment was lovely and spacious, and in a great part of the town. Close to shops on the Main Street. Only a couple of kilometers from lac scanno which was lovely to kayak on a really hot day. We thought of the apartment as a bit of a workout as it's on four floors with one room on each floor. Victor was a wonderful host and very knowledgeable on the history of Scanno and Sulmona.
