House on a hillside with a pool. A strategic spot for the beach or the mountains

With a beautiful pool surrounded by greenery, the Bucchianico Vacation Home is the ideal starting point for discovering the authentic spirit of Abruzzo. Just a few minutes from the Adriatic Sea and the beaches of Francavilla al Mare, Pescara, and Ortona lies a region that combines the charm of the coast with the majesty of the mountains. In the summer, Bucchianico comes alive with events, music, and the aromas of local cuisine: a vibrant and welcoming village where it’s easy to feel like part of the community. Nearby, you can visit the charming Hobbit Village in Contea Gentile, a fairy-tale setting nestled in the countryside. On the coast, the characteristic “trabocchi” of Ortona and San Vito invite you to enjoy a lunch suspended over the sea, surrounded by the aroma of freshly caught fish and the Adriatic breeze. Outdoor enthusiasts will find a true paradise: numerous cliffs for rock climbing, picturesque hiking trails ranging from easy to very challenging, bike routes, and walks through woods and valleys. The inland area offers extraordinary views: crystal-clear lakes, where it’s easy to spot deer and other wildlife; the imposing Campo Imperatore plateau, known as the “Little Tibet of Abruzzo” for its untamed beauty and boundless landscapes, offers unique experiences in every season. A place of great charm and a natural backdrop for numerous films—from *The Name of the Rose* to *They Call Me Trinity* and, above all, its sequel... *They Still Call Me Trinity* starring Bud Spenser and Terence Hill — and the magical Rocca Calascio, with its castle—one of the highest in Europe—famous for serving as the setting for the film *Ladyhawke*, as well as the other medieval villages of Santo Stefano di Sessanio and Castel del Monte, where time seems to have stood still. Your vacation in Bucchianico will offer a different experience every day: the sea, the mountains, history, the tranquility of the natural parks, and the authenticity of a land that still knows how to welcome visitors with simplicity.
