ROCCA FERMANA

Rocca Fermana was built in 1080 A.D. as a watch tower to defend the Marca Fermana. Situated in an enchanting setting between the Monte Sibilla, the Gola dell’Infernaccio and the medieval village of Montefortino, it rises on a spur of rock from which it dominates the surrounding valley.

Today the old Tower is a beautiful resort, set as a jewel in the center of the National Park of the Sibillini Mountains, designed for those seeking peace, relaxation and meditation.

The park that branches off around the structure is enriched with artistic creations that refer to the Land Art, inside there is a private amphitheater where you can enjoy unique sunsets.

A lovely pool with heated jacuzzi offers a breathtaking view.

The villa is divided into two apartments: Inferno, located on the ground floor and able to accommodate 2+2 people, and Sibilla, located on the first floor where 5 guests can stay. The entire structure has max capacity of 9 guests.

Near Montefortino there are many architectural and natural sites to discover, first of all the Sanctuary of the Madonna dell’Ambro, an ancient Marian place of worship among the most important in the Marche Region.

Many trails that are lost among the gentle peaks of the National Park of Monti Sibillini depart in places near the villa.

One of most fascinating trekking trail is the one of the Gole dell’Infernaccio (starting point about 3 km from the property): natural gorges dug over hundreds of thousands of years by the River Tenna between Monte Priora and the Sibilla, a simple walk accessible to children allows in about an hour to get to the hermitage of San Leonardo.
The villa is composed by 2 apartements for a totally 250sqm disposend on 3 levels, and can accommodate up to 9 guests in 3 double bedrooms (one with freech bed) and 1 single room, sofabed, 3 bathrooms, 2 kitchens, 2 living/dining rooms with fireplace.
