Hotel Borgo Lanciano Benessere - Marche hotel booking

Hotel Borgo Lanciano, near Macerata

Hotel Borgo Lanciano, is located outside the town of Camerano, deep in the idyllic Marche countryside. A short walk through the surrounding woodland takes you to the Lanciano castle, which is a 14th-century construction by Giovanni da Varano, and which has been painstakingly restored and is now open to visitors. The old university town of Macerata is definitely worth visiting. It has an annual festival of opera and ballet called the Stagione Lirica, held in its open-air theatre between mid-July and mid-August. Amongst the town's most compelling attractions are the Pinacoteca Civica and the Palazzo Ricci, which both hold some spectacular works of art. In the latter gallery, Francesco Messina's sculpture of a nude dancer and another of a jumping horse, are particularly fine. For shopping, the boutiques of the Corso della Repubblica are hard to beat, and you will also find plenty of bars once you have had your dose of retail therapy.

This Camerano hotel comprises a carefully renovated collection of country villas, which offer traditional charm along with four-star modern luxury. This peaceful rural retreat is set in its own estate making it the perfect place to unwind and escape the bustle of city life. Its bedrooms retain original features such as terracotta flooring, wrought iron and rustic furnishings, but are also equipped with plasma TV, broadband internet access and telephone. The restaurant has superb views across the surrounding countryside and you can sample delicious Italian cuisine or choose from a selection of fine regional wines. The spa offers a unique range of treatments, which use plant extracts and other natural ingredients from the local area.
