Rental

While Casa Fontanelle is not available for rental, we recommend you contact Monique de Veer at www.le-marche-explorer.com to find similar properties in the area.

Our good friends Piero and Ada run the delightful Le Vallicelle B&B just over the hill from Casa Fontanelle. During the summer it may also be possible to rent the entire house.

Find your own property

You can find out about Mauro Rieti, our geometra at www.marchepropertyconsultancy.com. He and his associates deal with sales and rentals of similar properties at www.marcheshire.com. We're on our second project with Mauro, so he must be doing something right!
