 RelaxingAgriturismo Lavanda Blu is located on a quiet hill overlooking a peaceful valley amongst vineyards, olive trees and fields of sunflowers and wheat. It's an ideal place to relax. CyclingThe area is ideal for both road bikes and mountain bikes. Agriturismo Lavanda Blu is an ideal place to start a day of cycling for the experienced cyclist. The hills are challenging and beautiful. Or, if you prefer you can cycle on the plains. In either case, there are plenty of villages to stop in along any route to have a coffee or a meal. We can advise you on the nicest routes, tailored to your experience. Bring your bike; it's a fabulous place to ride! Hiking and WalkingThe surrounding hills are covered in marked walking trails often meandering through charming villages. The Sibillini National Park is only 40 minutes away by car and offers hiking trails, both easy and hard. It's a wonderful place to have a picnic and visit the mountain villages. The park is stunning and completely unspoilt. It's a great place to visit even if you don't wish to hike. The mountain towns have charming restaurants where you can enjoy local food. The BeachNearby are long sandy beaches, ideal for children and sunbathing as the water is shallow and the surf is usually calm. The beaches are lined with establishments where you can rent an umbrella and a lounge chair and eat lunch or get an ice cream. There are also free beaches (where there are no establishments). We have a couple of beach umbrellas for your use. Wine TastingMany of the local vineyards offer wine tastings and tours. We can help you plan excursions to some of the areas best. SightseeingNearby are many points of interest such as the lovely city of Ascoli Piceno, the caves of Frasassi, ancient Roman ruins and medieval towns with lovely churches and art. You can visit local craftsmen and see how traditional crafts are made, and ports where the fishermen bring in the day's catch. There is plenty to do! MuseumsThere are many interesting museums in the area, ranging from renaissance art to sea shells. ShoppingThe area has many factory outlets selling clothing and shoes that are made in the area, including the outlets of many famous fashion houses. There are also local outdoor markets, antique markets and local craft stores that you can visit. Grape HarvestCome join us for a week of fun in the fall to participate in the harvest and making of wine. Stomp grapes with your feet, see how wine is made, visit other vineyards and taste different types of wine, and have a wonderful time. During the week we offer an optional cooking class of traditional local recipes using the wine and the crushed grapes as ingredients. Olive HarvestWe are restoring a small olive grove that has been neglected for over 15 years and we invite you to a fun filled week in the fall where you can participate in the olive harvest and the making of olive oil. During the week you will visit a frantoio where the olives are crushed using huge stones in the same way it was done thousands of years ago. You will taste several dishes that are based on the ancient olive and go home with a bottle of oil from the olives you picked. There is an optional cooking class featuring traditional recipes using the olive and oil. Cooking ClassesWant to learn how to make authentic Italian food?
