When you’re looking for a peaceful adults-only hideaway in the spectacular Marche region, they don’t come much more peaceful (or spectacular) than Il Rifugio dei Marsi, a glampsite in the Roccafluvione hills at the gateway of Monti Sibillini National Park.
This cosy rural oasis is run as an agritourism concern by Ezio, Norma and Sara, who first opened their family home to guests in 2008. They expanded into glamping during 2014, so they’re old and trusted hands at the hospitality lark. Staying with them, you have the chance to get away from the hustle of everyday life, sleep among lush greenery with stunning mountain views and explore the family’s farm, which is run on sustainable lines.
You can taste the home-grown, zero-miles and seasonal produce that shapes the family’s food offerings when you dine (book in advance at an extra cost) in your accommodation, as all the ingredients come from the farm or other small businesses close by.
Your stylish sleeping options come with smart, modern and exclusive-use bathrooms and breakfast included in the deal. Bookable extras include time in the hot tub for soaking up Monti Sibillini views, gardening sessions, cookery lessons, e-bike hire and spa treatments.

Local attractions
Ready to get active? The family are happy to help you organise kayak and canoe trips on Lago di Gerosa (15 minutes’ drive), mountain trekking or quad biking in Monti Sibillini National Park (half an hour) or guided horse rides (20 minutes) in the hilly meadows and woodland around Ascoli Piceno (15 minutes).
It’s definitely worth taking time to explore gorgeous Ascoli Piceno itself; this elegant town has a buzzy historic centre with medieval bronze statuary and fountains in Piazza Arringo, plus a clutch of baroque churches to admire. Cultural sightseeing done, head for Renaissance-era Piazza del Popolo, packed with alfresco cafés for leisurely evening drinks.
Other pretty spots deserving a closer look include Castel Trosino (20 minutes), a whitewashed hill village sitting above forest on a rocky crag. Surrounded by 15th-century fortified walls, mellow-stoned and red-roofed Offida (half an hour) has inspiring views over the Tesino and Tronto valleys, while Sarnano (40 minutes) is packed with galleries, museums, restaurants and bars; climb uphill to the church at twilight for vivid sunsets over Monti Sibillini peaks.
