This hotel is full of character, with a pool that you can book into for the day, if you do not fancy the seaside or the mountain lakes. 15 minute drive from the house on the main Fermo rd....just look for the mini Eiffel tower.

A favourite for locals as the lake in the mountains. The water is deep, cool, and refreshing. Paddle boats and kayaks are available to rent, however there are no lifeguards. The drive time is about 45 minutes into the mountains, with food available nearby. Rent or bring your own sun/shade accessories.
