Penne

   

   
   
       

  The Medieval town of Penne is the nearest town to the farmhouse being just 5 minutes away.

It is a thriving town with many shops, restaurants, bars and other facilities.

At the heart of the town and sitting atop two hills is the historic walled part of the town dating back to the 15th century.

The town is unusual in that it is largely built and paved from cotto terracotta bricks, lending it a unique appearance.

Explore the steep and narrow streets and you will see many fine examples of baroque and medieval architecture.

Market Day is Saturday.  Enjoy a "porchetta" (roast pork in a bun) from the street vendors and explore the many colourful and interesting stalls.
