If you LOVE a cheese in which you can savour the Abruzzi Apennine meadows and taste the wild herbs that were grazed to produce it then you must just once in your life at least visit Abruzzo’s organic Porta dei Parchi agriturismo or alternatively take part in their Adopt a Pecora (sheep) scheme
Picturesquely located on the outskirts of Isola del Gran Sasso, Ristorante San Giovanni di Fieni Luca sits next to the hill-top romanesque abbey San Giovanni ad Insulam, in part at least dating back to the 11th century
Prati di Tivo is our closest ski resort, open between December and April it is just a 40-minute drive away from Casetta Lucciola and best suited for beginner to intermediate skiers being that most of its 20km of runs are pretty straight.
