Casa Vacanze nella Piana di Navelli
In a group or alone in the cool of the surrounding greenery, with a book and in the excellent company of the stars which in the silence of the evening are of absolute brilliance, relaxing body and mind away from noise and technology.
- CIR 066058CVP0004 - The detached house is in the historic center of the Civitaretenga di Navelli (AQ) hamlet, it is part of the first complex rebuilt anti-seismically after the 2009 earthquake and was returned to the property in 2020.
Developed on two levels, ideal for a group of friends or family: it has a kitchen with all equipment (crockery, plates, glasses, coffee machine, kettle, microwave...), a living room, a bathroom with shower.
The second floor is accessed via an internal staircase and contains: a large bedroom with a double bed, a bedroom with two single beds overlooking the plain. It is divided by a relaxation room with bookcase, TV and sofa (which can be opened to a square and a half). The house is ideal for easily adaptable, sporty and young people, as the internal staircase is narrow and not suitable for people with handicaps and poor motor skills.
The furnishings are partly recycled and re-adapted with self-made techniques. There is separate waste collection (there are buckets for the various types of waste on the external balcony). Tap water is fresh and drinkable, so there are no plastic bottles, only glass jugs.
Externally the lighting is generated by LED instruments and stars. The village that is returning to its ancient splendor, demonstrates this in its alleys, in the stairs, in the small squares, where the desire to be reborn is evident. Due to these characteristics it is not accessible to disabled people.
The (free) car park is a few dozen meters away and to unload your luggage it is best to stop in the square behind the Church at the intersection with Via Carducci. From here, take 3 or 4 large stairs, turn left and immediately go down Via degli Archi where on the right is the entrance to the outdoor balcony/gallery.
The spirit of hospitality is to rediscover the simplicity of uncrowded, very relaxing, at times silent places, rediscovering the pleasure of walking in the surrounding rural villages, perhaps cycling on the dirt roads that connect the entire Navelli plain. 4 km away is Caporciano, with its hamlet Bominaco, famous for the Oratory of San Pellegrino (the small Sistine Chapel of Abruzzo) and the Church of Santa Maria Assunta.
The ancient city of Peltuinum, 12 km away, between Prata d'Ansidonia and Castelnuovo offers the remains of a splendid amphitheatre.
20 km away are the Stiffe Caves, a wonder of nature.
For those wishing to go higher, 23 km away stands the Rocca di Calascio, famous throughout the world also for being the set of the film "Lady Hawke" and for its breathtaking landscape. 47 km away is Campo Imperatore, a rising tourist destination.
For a historical cultural tour, 30 km away is L'Aquila, a historic city of rare beauty. 3 km away is Navelli, one of the most beautiful villages in Italy, particular in its features, with alleys, stairs, historic buildings and the Saffron Museum, a spice that is still cultivated and marketed.
In Civitaretenga there is the Cooperativa dell'Altopiano di Navelli, which manages a hostel at the convent/cloister of S. Francesco, where events, festivals and meetings take place in the summer. At their headquarters it is possible to purchase red gold and saffron. In the village there is also a recreational club with a bowling green and a grocery shop.
The bus stop is 3 km away, in nearby Navelli. In Civitaretenga every now and then there is a service from San Benedetto in Perillis v/L'Aquila and back.
