An hours scenic drive and you reach Devil’s Gorg An hours scenic drive and you reach Devil’s Gorge where you literally walk through a natural gap in the mountains following the path of rushing water. A fun walk for kids too as the scrambling up rocky paths and across bridges feel like a mini adventure. Then walking through the final gap in the rocks to a magical path along the rushing stream. In the summer months we’re more mountain than beach folks( luckily we have both here) How about you ? See stories for more pics. #goledellinfernaccio #sibillinimountains #yallersmarche
Our 1930s front door. The same one we all entered Our 1930s front door. The same one we all entered the house through for the first time 16 years ago. It’s seen many comings and goings and witnessed the shenanigans of family life as well as the welcoming and farewells of 100s of guests. We look forward to welcoming many more visitors through this door. We’re taking things slowly this summer with gaps between bookings to ensure proper preparation of the house. Using the opportunity to rethink what we can offer visitors in the future. We like the idea of full immersion weeks of mixing activities such as olive picking and pressing with cooking local foods. Exploring Local wineries, landscape and mountains discovery trips out. What would be in your ideal Le Marche experience? We’d love to know 😉
One of my lockdown sourdough loaves. I ran out of One of my lockdown sourdough loaves. I ran out of yeast and used the opportunity to master the art and rhythm of naturally leavened bread. It has given me a deep sense of satisfaction putting this daily bread on the table. This week has been #mentalhealthawareness week and if you’re interested please read up on @vanessakimbell and her research on fermented bread and how it aids both gut and mental health. So much to learn about the connection between food and health. I know personally that baking, foraging, creating meals helps me deal with things and gives me headspace. Wishing you a great weekend. Check out my stories for more bread stuff. I have to thank @labibioteca for igniting my sourdough journey 😘
What’s your favourite Italy themed book ? We hav What’s your favourite Italy themed book ? We have a new library room full of books, including lots of fiction and biography set in Italy. Scroll through to see a few of my personal favourites. We added a reading nook perfect for browsing through guidebooks on our region of Le Marche. It’s my new favourite room @casa_montalto and when visiting us feel free to borrow a book. Have to thank my talented son for tirelessly working on the handmade floor to ceiling shelving. 🙏 @dominik98manz
And suddenly there was an explosion of roses. Cand And suddenly there was an explosion of roses. Candy floss pink flowers cascading over arches, reminding me that soon Spring will break into summer. Time marches on regardless of what is happening in the world outside Casa Montalto. Taking things week by week as Italy slowly starts up again. 😘
Celebrating 75 years peace in Europe with a Victor Celebrating 75 years peace in Europe with a Victoria Sponge cake and Vera Lynn songs. Wandering when I’ll be able to visit my family and best friends in UK.
I’m becoming a twitcher 😆 Every morning I wal I’m becoming a twitcher 😆 Every morning I walk stealthily through this gate towards the old ruin, where a family of kestrels live. I hear their calls first then see them swoop down to the pigeon holes under the roof or fly across our open valley like distant kites. They have nested here for years. All is still, the sky is spring blue and the air is crisp with a hint of warmth. I am grateful for the rush of Spring. I am grateful for the lovely comments from past guests and hopefully future ones. 🙏 See stories for kestrel pics and take care x
Saw this view of Casa Montalto yesterday for the f Saw this view of Casa Montalto yesterday for the first time in 8 weeks after my first trip out. The view from the road down to the house and surrounding land that has been our haven. Italy is now relaxing the lockdown a little. Being cocooned within our land, I’ve watched the gentle unfurling of spring amongst the vines, the 100s of olive trees, the wild flowers. The world has lost its footing. Italy has had the wind knocked out of it but our beautiful region will be ready to welcome visitors again when the time is right. See my stories for a few Spring highlights 😘
Delicate peach blossom reminding us of the changin Delicate peach blossom reminding us of the changing seasons. We’ve been busy pruning, and feeding the fruit trees as well as listing outdoor projects to start preparing #casamontalto for guests. Been a strange old week for Italy. Rest assured #lemarche is very much open for business and I feel certain that visitors to our region would never be put off by manic media reporting. Wishing you a happy weekend and feel free to ask me anything you want about Le Marche or Italy.
Casa Montalto is very much part of the hilly farmi Casa Montalto is very much part of the hilly farming landscape but we love that in half an hour you can be at the coast with wide sandy beaches and open sea views. On such a gorgeous day like today we sometimes feel that we have to pinch ourselves. Omg how is it February already ?

Walk around any hilltop village in Le Marche regio Walk around any hilltop village in Le Marche region and you can easily get the feeling that time has stood still. We like to meander through the old cobbled streets and imagine all the footsteps that have gone before. This is our local village of #montaltodellemarche.

Soft autumn mornings rolling into hot sunny days. Soft autumn mornings rolling into hot sunny days. Early morning strolls with basket in hand, today filled with apples. It’s so beautiful in #lemarche in October. Fancy joining me next autumn for a foraging, olive picking, wine tasting, pasta making, chestnut hunting few days? Stay in touch for 2020 autumn escapes at #casamontalto
Autumn. Damn, it caught me by surprise again and m Autumn. Damn, it caught me by surprise again and means I need to unpack my socks and find a cardi. These final bunches of sweet black grapes, from the top of the field of vines. Not wine grapes so only ones left hanging. Eating them like crazy and wandering how to preserve them ? #seasonschange #autunno🍁
Fig harvest and drying. These black beauties are a Fig harvest and drying. These black beauties are a mouthful of honey like sweetness. Glad to be back after our hols and relishing the tranquility of preparing figs from our trees whilst contemplating life with its ups and downs. Remember 13 is considered a lucky number for Italians 😉
Casa Montalto nestled within the Le Marche landsca Casa Montalto nestled within the Le Marche landscape of vines, olive trees, undulating fields and scattered borghi. We love welcoming guests to this corner of Italy where it is easy to slow down and relax. Enjoy the house and grounds all to yourself and take advantage of us as local tourist guides. Taking bookings for 2020 and this September. #bookdirect for the very best offers 😉
Some places make a lasting impression. This place Some places make a lasting impression. This place will. Unique, evocative, cocooning, harmonious, rustic chic. Luxurious but simple cave hotel on the edge of Matera. A film set of a town increasingly being discovered by tourists. Lovely, but honestly I couldn’t wait to get back to our cave and take a long candlelit bath, before enjoying apperitivi on the terrace. A four hour drive from us into a very different Italy. #sextantio #matera
‘ wherever you leave your hat is your home’ th ‘ wherever you leave your hat is your home’ throwback to my youth listening to Paul Young 😜 We like to think guests feel at home @casa_montalto and I actually did leave my hat ( locally made straw hat) on the bed post a while back and had to retrace my steps throughout the house which is huge. We STILL have 31 August for one week free. Almost wine season and still pool season. Message me for a significant reduction in rental cost. What are you waiting for, grab some friends or family and make plans... #bookdirect
