We stumbled upon Le Magnolie agritourismo from the slow travel website. It was the favourite part of our two week trip to Italy. Le Magnolie trumped Rome and Florence, hands down! The region of Abruzzo, where Le Magnolie is located is drop dead gorgeous. It is chock full of scenic drives, stunning views and beautiful towns perched on hillsides. There... more

Lovely place, great scenery, quiet and peaceful. The staff are practically invisible and you feel as if you're living in your own Italian place in the country, but with someone else to do all the work. This includes cooking you a fabulous dinner every night. It is a bit hard to get to but it's worth it. more

Stayed for two nights very recently. Lovely location with fine views and all the charm so typical of the area. Room spacious but with a small modern shower room which, at 6ft1in, I found difficult to negotiate! Food, in the local rustic syle,was of excellent quality. Everyone helpful.Well placed for exploring the ancient historic towns nearby aswell as the Mountains... more

My husband and I spent 12 relaxing days in this beautiful area of Italy. Le Magnolie is a delightful agriturismo between Loreto Aprutino and Penne . Mario, his family and staff were very warm and welcoming. We soon felt very much a part of the place. Our room, La Quercia , was spacious and clean with a modern shower room.... more

The location of the agriturismo is on a road winding through olive groves and vines, close to Penne and Loreto Aprutino (both beautiful small towns). The building itself is very nice and well decorated by the owners. Staying... more

This is a gem of a place. We stayed in an apartment with our two children and grandparents joined us and stayed in the hotel. We thought it would be a nice base to explore the area from - didn't really move though for a week! The children adored the pool and animals and eating with the other guests in... more

This place is a true find. It is a classic Italian get-away, and not far from Rome at all- about 2 hours I think of very calm civilized driving. The view is beautiful at Le Magnolie. It is a working farm, and Mario's olive oil is to die for. We stayed in a lovely apartment with a charming country kitchen,... more
