In early October the Locanda della Valle Nuova proved just what we wanted: a clean, intriguingly (elegant, whimsical, Italian) decorated, and welcoming inn to be in the Italian countryside; delicious breakfasts; a truffle hunt; and a very warm welcome from Giulia, including advice on all activities in the region. We spent three days walking, exploring, relaxing, and hope to return... More

Carole and I stayed at Valle Nuova for 3 nights and thoroughly enjoyed it, especially the kind and thoughtful care from Giulia and her parents. The rooms are clean, comfortable with great view of the valley. The patio was very nice for relaxing and the pool was gorgeous. I very much enjoyed exploring the farm with its cattle, horses and...

We had a great time at Valle Nuova. The breakfast was the best we've ever had at any B&B type place, full of fresh food and delicious home-made items from the farm (jam, juice). The rooms are comfortable, not fancy, but have an electric kettle and a small refrigerator and wifi and are otherwise thoughtfully laid out. Giulia and her... More

This year was our third time at the Locanda, and we are sure it won't be the last one. This time we were a little worried because of the first presence of our little child Giorgio (2 years old); but we knew the Salvini family, so we shouldn't worry about anything! Everything was perfect, they make us absolutely welcome, they... More

When we arrived we were really in need of a vacation. Within 24 hours I was totally relaxed. The apartment Casina dei Tordi was perfect for us, a couple. The views from the patio next to the well-fitted kitchen were stunning. As I enjoy cooking in Italy, it was a real pleasure to finally find a rental kitted out with... More

We chose to stay at La Locanda for a special anniversary, and we weren't disappointed. The farmhouse has been well modernised and sits on a hill overlooking a charming valley. We were able to wander around the farm and fields, chatting to the very elegant local breed cows and watching the wildlife; this was the sort of relaxing holiday that... More

We are just back from a very relaxing few days in Le Marche staying at the Valle Nouva apartment. The initial impressions were not great as we arrived after dark and followed Giulia in our car down from the bed and breakfast through the cattle yard to her house about 500m away. We were further disappointed when there was no... More

We had a lovely and relaxing stay and were fantastically taken care of by Guilia and her family (including the little kittens!) .Le Marche is a beautiful part of Italy and Guilia knows so much that we saw the nicer parts of it. Her cooking skills are terrific and we enjoyed the dinners and the people we got to meet.... More

We spent a wonderful week here, and we'd endorse everything that's been said about the great location, views, and the warm hospitality from Giulia and her parents, the kindness to small stray animals and the terrific food and wine sourced from the farm, or locally. Did we mention the pool and the gentle breeze, and the fact that you can... More
