Other villages are about 10 minutes away from us. The closest cities to our home are Atri, Penne, and Teramo. These are where you will find the best accommodation options. To Get to Us Unless you are driving from Europe, wherever you come from, you will need to fly to Rome International airport, but there are no connecting flights to Pescara. There are some direct flights from several countries in Europe to Pescara International Airport in Abruzzo, which is 1 hour from us. These are: UK, Dublin, Belgium, Germany, Poland among others. Your Best Options Are: Renting a Car:The fastest but most expensive option (2 hrs) is to rent a car. However, you will need one to get to and from the venue, unless you take a taxi twice a day, which will be expensive too. We have a car which we are happy to loan if you cannot afford to rent or a taxi, but whoever uses it may have to ferry others to and from the venue. We can work this out. By Bus:The second fastest (approx. 2 hrs) but not cheapest (25 euros one way) is by bus, which runs regularly. Departure Points: Major operators depart from Roma Tiburtina Bus Station or near Roma Termini. Major Operators: Flixbus, Itabus, Prontobus, and Di Fonzo From what we have found out, the closest bus station to us is in Val Vomano – https://maps.app.goo.gl/NR4rvGWnmGLmx8jV6?g_st=am. By Train:The third and cheapest option (14 – 21 euros) is by train, a very scenic ride which takes approx. 3 ½ hrs.
