'Agriturismo
Felicetta' is ideally located for visits to some of the finest treasures
of central Italy. Roccasecca (1.5 km distant) is a charming hill town,
birthplace of St. Thomas Aquinas and overlooked by the medieval castle
of his family. The famous and spectacular monastery of Monte Cassino (20
km) was the centrepiece of one of the hardest fought campaigns of World
War II. On the coast (50 km) Formia and Gaeta are fashionable seaside
towns with ferries to the islands of Ponza and Ventotene. Sperlunga is
a beautiful fishing village with some of Italy's finest beaches.
Inland
from Agriturismo Felicetta is the Abruzzo National Park (30 km), a huge
area of unspoiled mountain, forest and scattered villages. In winter it
has excellent skiing. The road to the Abruzzo leads through the wild Melfa
Gorge, and traverses the Valcomino - heart of one of Italy's most traditional
regions, the Ciocaria.
Finally,
you can leave the car at home, and enjoy a walk in the hills behind the
house, or a tour of Roccasecca's medieval past - followed by a swim in
our pool and a glass of our local wines on the terrace.
