Search Villas in Bellante Ripattone Station

"Had to check out immediately, nothing as advertised! No restaurant open, no bar, and no wifi available. Looked a fantastic place but obviously should have closed for the year."

"Il Frutetto ('the orchard') was an absolute joy. John and Sue were consummate hosts–funny, articulate, helpful and knowledgeable. The views are stunning from all directions. The estate is well laid-out, with a very functional and well-stocked kitchen, and the pool and decks were a true luxury. Know that it is a bit out in the country, so a drive is required to get to sights and shopping. We found incredible dining in Julianova (Taglietto, and others) and a great enoteca (wine shop) about 5 km away (but a very decent Montepulciano d'Abruzzo can be had at the market for 3 euro)! Sue also arranged a local cook to come in and demonstrate the making of a 3 course meal (a homemade savory ravioli, a superb lamb dish, and custard for dessert). There is much to see and do in Abruzzo, but relaxing in a place like Il Frutetto itself was worth the trip."

"Great hotel, good food, breakfast and service. "
