Undiscovered Italy at its Beautiful Best If you enjoy historic hilltop towns, glorious mountain scenery, wonderful art and buildings, delicious food and wine or thriving local markets, you have come to the right place. The stunning mediaeval town of Sarnano is just three kilometres from Villa Borghetti, while you’ll want to visit other nearby towns. The magnificent Sibillini mountains are close by and the Adriatic coast, with its safe, sandy beaches, is less than an hour away. Sarnano  . The stunning mediaeval town of Sarnano is a short drive from Villa Borghetti or, if you’re feeling energetic, you could walk or cycle there using one of the many well-marked footpaths. Situated on a hill to the right of the Tennacola river, Sarnano is one of the few towns in Le Marche whose historic centre remains completely intact. The design is that of a ‘castrum’, a walled city with narrow streets unwinding in a spiral, intersected by a warren of tiny side streets. Thankfully, most of these are unsuitable for modern vehicles and a wonderful atmosphere of peace and tranquility pervades this magical place.
