Penne is located in the very centre of Abruzzo within easy driving distance of both the mountains and the sea. It is a lively and historic market town with a wealth of historic buildings all in the honey coloured brick of the Maiella mountains. There are also all the modern facilities you could need: supermarkets, swimming pools, banks, etc. Just behind Penne is the biggest mountain in Abruzzo, the Gran Sasso, which offers rambling, horse riding and mountaineering. The sandy Adriatic coast is only half an hour's drive. So too is Pescara, the regional capital, famous for the annual Jazz festival. Penne has its own lake and aquatic bird reserve just 20 minutes walk away from the apartment.
