Villa Melissa – What we particularly like
* The warm charm of a restored farmhouse
* Elegant black pool with views of the charming valley of Le Marche
* Fully accessible
Villa Melissa is located in the north of Marche, nestled amidst the rolling hills of Urbania. The area captivates with its pristine nature, excellent culinary offerings, and rich cultural heritage.
From the large panoramic windows, you can gaze upon the quaint village of Peglio and the Metauro Valley.
In the nearby town of Urbania , you'll find the beautiful ceramics for which the town is known. Charming coffee bars and local markets, where you can mingle with locals, will also delight you.
Another highlight of the area is the UNESCO World Heritage city of Urbino, just a 20-minute drive from Villa Melissa. This Renaissance city invites visitors to explore its art, universities, the Ducal Palace, lively squares, and vibrant cultural life.
The area is also a hiker's paradise. You'll find wooded areas, scenic trails, and the dreamy Valle delle Piscine dell'Auro. It's a valley with crystal-clear water, waterfalls, and natural pools. Hike up to Peglio and enjoy the peaceful village atmosphere and breathtaking views over the valley. E-bike excursions are also fantastic, taking you through truffle-rich forests, charming Italian villages, past wine producers, and old orchards. Spend a day on the Adriatic coast of Marche: the beaches of Fano and Pesaro are less than an hour away. Delicious fish restaurants and lively coastal towns will captivate you.
