Villa Fiorano | 5-Bedroom Villa with Heated Pool in Cagli Marche

A five-bedroom luxury villa rental in Cagli, Le Marche, designed for groups of up to twelve guests who demand both space and sophistication. Villa Fiorano sits five kilometres from Cagli’s historic centre, commanding views across the rolling Marchigiana countryside, with an indoor heated pool as its architectural centrepiece and a working fireplace that anchors the ground-floor living spaces.

Inside Villa Fiorano

Villa Fiorano sleeps 12 guests across 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, distributed across two habitable levels connected by internal stairs.

The ground floor opens with a sitting room featuring a wood-burning fireplace and substantial sofas—the kind of layout where everyone naturally congregates before dinner. The adjacent kitchen-dining area spans the width of the property, fitted with a six-seat dining table, professional oven, hob, dishwasher, microwave, and the kind of counter space that makes cooking for a dozen actually feasible. Three bedrooms occupy this floor: one double with its own mezzanine sleeping level above (containing two singles and a dedicated shower room with bidet); a second double; and a single bedroom. A family bathroom with shower, sink, bidet and WC serves the hallway.

Descending to the lower ground floor reveals the 10-metre by 5-metre heated saltwater swimming pool—the villa’s defining feature—with glass doors opening directly onto the garden. This subterranean level also contains a supplementary kitchen, an open-plan sitting area with dining table and television, two further double bedrooms (one with its own en-suite shower room and bidet; the other sharing a family bathroom), and a separate laundry room. The pool operates seasonally from mid-April through mid-October.

Throughout the property, original ceiling beams and exposed stonework create authentic period character, while poured concrete floors and contemporary lighting add clean modernist counterpoint. Air conditioning (available on request with additional cost), Wi-Fi, satellite televisions, washing machine, iron and ironing board, fans, and hairdryers service guest comfort across all spaces.

Outdoor Spaces and Living

The garden extends southward from the villa’s lower level, terrace, and pool exits, merging into uninterrupted countryside views. A covered dining terrace faces the landscape—perfect for morning espresso or evening wine—with substantial outdoor sofas, sun loungers, parasols, and café-style seating clusters positioned throughout the grounds. A jacuzzi positioned to capture panoramic vistas becomes your evening focal point, while a functioning barbecue handles grilled preparations. Parking accommodates multiple vehicles on the private approach.

The property’s true magic lies in its threshold between interior and exterior: glass doors from the pool area, the covered terrace’s sightlines, the jacuzzi’s placement—every major living space orients toward those undulating hills visible from nearly every vantage point.

Location: Cagli and the Surrounding Area

Cagli, a medieval hilltop town in the Province of Pesaro and Urbino within Le Marche, functions as your base for exploration without requiring villa-bound isolation. The town centre, five kilometres away, contains the Archaeological Museum of Flaminia (displaying Roman artefacts and regional finds), the Diocesan Museum showcasing ecclesiastical art, the cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta, and the atmospheric ruins of the Rocca fortress. Palazzo Felici and Palazzo Preziosi Brancaleoni demonstrate Renaissance architectural confidence. Local restaurants and alimentari (delicatessens) stock regional products: Pecorino di Urbino cheese, Prosciutto di Carpegna, and wines from nearby vineyards including Colli Pesaresi designations.

Urbino, 30 kilometres south, exemplifies Italian Renaissance urban planning with the monumental Ducal Palace (UNESCO-listed), the Oratory of St. John the Baptist with its remarkable frescoes, and galleries housing works by Raphael and Piero della Francesca. The surrounding countryside supports several working wineries offering tastings: Terre Cortesi Moncaro and Rocconi both operate near Pesaro (63 kilometres southwest). Pesaro itself combines a vibrant waterfront promenade, an old town labyrinth of medieval alleys, a ducal palace, and a kilometres-long sandy beach where the Adriatic currents provide reliable swimming from June through September.

Walking routes radiate from Villa Fiorano through countryside traversed by marked trails—the CAI network maintains paths connecting villages, hilltop towns, and natura reserves. Truffle hunting operates seasonally (autumn), orchestrated through local guides based in Acqualagna (25 kilometres east), the international truffle capital. Agricultural markets in Cagli operate Wednesday and Saturday mornings, selling produce, cheeses, cured meats, and fresh pasta. The nearest significant supermarket (Conad or similar) sits within Cagli proper, approximately 5 kilometres distant.

The coastal resort of Fano (55 kilometres) and the natural areas of the Metauro River valley (35 kilometres) offer additional day-trip objectives. The closest significant airport is Ancona Raffaello Sanzio (90 kilometres; approximately 90-minute transfer), though some guests prefer Bologna (150 kilometres; 2.5-hour transfer) for superior flight options.

Who This Villa Suits Best

Extended families numbering ten to twelve find Villa Fiorano’s spatial logic obvious: separate ground and lower-ground living areas mean different generations needn’t synchronise meals or television choices. The mezzanine bedroom arrangement suits families with teenage children who accept compact private sleeping quarters in exchange for their own shower room.

Professional groups, wedding parties, and milestone celebrations (anniversaries, significant birthdays) benefit from the villa’s scale: sufficient private sleeping spaces prevent fatigue, while communal areas encourage gathering. The pool and jacuzzi provide natural focal points for group activity without requiring external arrangements.

Couples seeking countryside immersion can occupy any single bedroom and enjoy the shared facilities without paying for unnecessary space—though the property’s minimum occupancy will typically apply. Those pursuing gastronomic or cultural tourism (Renaissance art, truffle hunting, winery visits) find Cagli’s location strategically positioned within thirty kilometres of Urbino’s masterpieces and culinary reputation.

Frequently Asked Questions about Villa Fiorano

How many guests does Villa Fiorano sleep?

Villa Fiorano sleeps 12 guests across 5 bedrooms: three doubles on the ground floor (one with a mezzanine level containing two additional single beds accessed via internal ladder), two doubles on the lower ground floor, and one single bedroom on the ground floor. The mezzanine bedroom above one ground-floor double contains two single beds and its own en-suite shower room with bidet.

What is the nearest airport to Villa Fiorano in Cagli?

Ancona Raffaello Sanzio International Airport lies approximately 90 kilometres from Villa Fiorano, requiring roughly 90 minutes by hired car via the A14 motorway and SS73 regional route. Bologna Guglielmo Marconi (150 kilometres; approximately 2.5 hours) provides an alternative with typically more flight frequency, particularly for European destinations. Both airports service car rental agencies at departure level.

What is the best time of year to rent Villa Fiorano?

Late April through June offers ideal conditions: the indoor heated pool opens mid-April, Mediterranean sunshine warms the terraces without summer intensity, spring wildflowers bloom across the countryside, and truffle hunting season concludes, leaving the landscape clear. September and early October reverse these advantages—warm but not scorching, the pool remains heated, restaurant crowds thin after August ferragosto holidays. July and August deliver peak heat (32-35°C), crowds in coastal towns and Renaissance cities, and maximum restaurant reservation difficulty, though the heated pool becomes genuinely refreshing. November through March brings rainfall (Le Marche receives modest annual precipitation, but winter concentrates it), reduced daylight, and shuttered seasonal attractions, though winter truffle season begins December.

Is Villa Fiorano suitable for families with children?

Yes, with specific considerations. The heated indoor pool (10m x 5m, seasonal operation mid-April through mid-October) allows water activity regardless of air temperature or rainfall, though young children require constant supervision given the open-plan nature. The lower-ground-floor layout means pool access doesn’t require climbing stairs. The surrounding countryside lacks immediate hazards like cliffs or fast-moving water. Cagli supermarkets stock standard children provisions. The nearest paediatrician operates in Cagli town centre (5 kilometres). Family beaches at Pesaro and Fano (55-63 kilometres) provide sandy bathing suitable for toddlers through teenagers. However, the property lacks dedicated children entertainment infrastructure—organised childcare, kids’ clubs, or adventure parks—so families with very young children requiring constant structured activity may find the rural setting isolating.

What is included in the rental price at Villa Fiorano?

The rental price includes Wi-Fi internet access throughout the property, satellite television channels, all linen and towels, heating and hot water, pool heating during seasonal operation (mid-April through mid-October), wood for the working fireplace, and access to all furnished outdoor amenities (terrace, jacuzzi, sun loungers, barbecue). Air conditioning is available only by advance request and incurs additional cost. Weekly maid service can be arranged separately. Utilities (electricity beyond baseline climate control, gas for extended heating) may incur supplements during winter months—clarify with Excellence Luxury Villas at booking. Pets are accommodated by prior arrangement and may incur additional cleaning fees.

What restaurants and shops are near Villa Fiorano?

Cagli town centre (5 kilometres) contains the Conad supermarket, multiple alimentari specialising in local Pecorino di Urbino cheese and Prosciutto di Carpegna, pharmacies, and several trattorias including family-run establishments serving handmade pasta and regional game dishes.
