Holiday homes in Molise
A holiday in Molise is a relaxing stay in the authentic Italian countryside. Here, in the country’s second smallest region, you can call
Italy entirely your own. On the one side lie the mountain peaks of the Apennines, and on the other side, you find the sun-kissed beaches of the Adriatic. In Molise, you can relax completely and
go for walks in the green hills of this beautiful region. People here are never in a hurry, and you’ll enjoy the peace and quiet of a home set in
natural surroundings. Even though the area is sparsely populated, there are enough things to see and do to make your holiday extra special. Whether you choose to stay for longer or book a mid-week or a last-minute break, Micazu always has a holiday home that fits your requirements. And because you book directly with the owner, you often get a better deal.
Enjoy the unspoilt nature and picturesque villages
Molise borders the region of
Campania, and the area is known for its unspoilt nature, clear waters and rolling hills with picturesque villages. You can go on endless walks and Molise is also a cyclists’ paradise. You’ll never have to drive far to spend a day at the beach, and the owner of your holiday home will be happy to give you tips on the quietest and most remote coves. Or you could drive to one of the better known, bustling resorts like Termoli and Vasto. Campobasso, the regional capital, is also well worth a visit. A large medieval castle perches on top of a tall hill, giving wonderful views of the town and its surroundings. Another recommendation is Iserna, which used to be an important town in Roman times.
