As a total Italophile this was my first visit to Le Marche area for the excellent Olive Oil Weekend based at Casa dei Fichi. Bob and Ian were the perfect hosts and their property is fabulous with stunning views. Each apartment is really well appointed and ideal for guests who enjoy cooking as the kitchens are so well equipped, down... more

The place, accommodation and hosts were first rate! We went on an "Olive weekend" but had much more. Wine tastings several gourmet meals and visits to local towns & villages. I couldn't reccommend it more, it was just perfect - except for my waistline!! Andy more

November in Italy - time to pick olives - that was the pretence of the weekend, but really it was a weekend of good food, good wine and good company - enabled by the ever efficient but somewhat disturbing Ryanair flight from london to ancona. Bob and Ian have a great place - overlooking a view that you can just... more

Perfetto. - in twenty years of holidaying this is the first place where we're not only going to return, but just can't wait to get back there. Hosts who managed the seemingly impossible in being attentive and helpful whilst remaining unobtrusive, tranquil surroundings, stunning views, fresh herbs & veg to enjoy with locally sourced yummy bits, cute pets, great pool,... more

This is my fourth visit to Casal dei Fichi and this Olive/gourmet weekend certainly did not disappoint. From the point of being collected at Ancona airport everything was excellently arranged by Bob and Ian who are charming and talented hosts. The weekend started very promisingly with a stop for wine tasting and lunch just a short drive away from Ancona... more

This was my second visit and it truely felt like coming home. We were greeted by our wonderful hosts, Bob and Ian, and sidekicks Hattie and Balzo as we came to the end of the driveway. Looking across the rolling hills, vineyards and olive groves at the surrounding hilltop towns instantly instilled a sense of peace and harmony. Even in... more

All the reviews are correct, nothing else you could want apart from an enforced diet when you get back to the UK. We went on the gourmet olive break which was fabulous - great food, wine and company. A resounding success due to the lovely location and of course the hosts. more

We were in need of a complete rest and this is the place to go. Away from it all in "real Italy" it was not commercialised or touristy but beautiful and tranquil. It was like going back in time. Casal dei fichi is a beautifully restored farmhouse with wonderful views. It was so great to wake up every morning to... more

With joy we look back at the 2 weeks spent at the casale in July with our children and friends. We arrived in a quite, warm and peaceful environment. The colors of the landscape changed several several times and made us dreaming. A place return! A&W&L&T Belgium more
