Casa dei sogni d'oro
Experience a genuine authentic Italy
Experience a genuine authentic Italy
We are a Flemish couple who left the hectic life in Belgium behind us in October 2015 and moved permanently to Italy.
Not to become financially rich, but to enjoy a richer life in our beloved Italy.
A love that we do not only want to keep just for ourselves, but we like to share with our guests in a casual and homely atmosphere.
We consciously keep our accommodation small-scale.
Our primary goal and highest satisfaction is to infect our guests with our enthusiasm for the authentic and pure beauty of our Le Marche region.
Judging by the comments from our guests, this seems to succeed pretty well. What else can one wish for?
We have tried to give an, as comprehensive as possible, picture of what our casa and the region have to offer on this website.
If you still have questions though, please feel free to contact us; we are happy to answer them.
It will be our pleasure to welcome you in our casa.
Currently there are 4 independent apartments furnished in different sizes with maximum preservation of the original features that are typical of the Italian houses.
All apartments have a separate entrance and a private terrace and have a small kitchen with dishwasher and microwave oven and separate living and sleeping areas.
All apartments have gas heating with radiators and one apartment also has a wood stove.
Apartments on the first floor have clima (heating/airco) in the bedrooms and living room.
There is wireless internet available in and around the entire house.
Electric charging station available on parking.
Ceiling fans in the bedrooms.
There is a large swimming pool of 12x6 meters (salt electrolysis) with stunning view on the surroundings and the Apennines, which has an elevated pool house with a portico.
There is a possibility for a game of badminton, ping pong or petanque. For the youngest there is a small playground.
The frontside of the garden is dominated by a huge mulberry tree which has a trunk with a circumference of more than 6 meters. According to the locals it's probably one of the largest in the whole of Italy.
The guests can pick the fruit freshly from the trees in the garden : mulberry - cherries - apricots - plums - apples - figs - almonds - kaki - goji berries.
Here no landscape pollution by big electricity lines, solar panels, cell phone towers or busy roads.
With some luck you can watch a herd of deer or wild boar pass by next to the casa, while a pair of eagles or falcons scout their territory from the air.
The ideal location to de-stress and simply enjoy the Mediterranean beauty.
The house is located on the outskirts of San Pietro di Arcevia and is accessible via a 600 meter long gravel road (strada bianca).
The house is situated in a hilly landscape and surrounded by lands of the shepherd.
There are many nice restaurants in the area, offering the vaunted Marchegian dishes at very reasonable prices. Shopping is best done in San Lorenzo in Campo (6 km), where there are supermarkets, bars, restaurants, bank, pharmacy, etc.
The house is centrally located between the Adriatic beaches (25 km, about 30 minutes by car) and the Apennines (30 km, about 40 minutes by car).
The nearest airports:
Car rental is available on all airports.
Our house offers the perfect setting for experiencing Italy and to enjoy a sporting, culinary, cultural or an all-relax holiday, or better yet a combination of all that, why not!

Those who prefer the culinary tour, this is paradise. There are a lot of typical restaurants in the immediate vicinity of our casa and at the coast you can fully enjoy the delicious dishes with fresh fish and shellfish.
