Villa Inglese is a gourmet restaurant and boutique B&B housed in a beautifully restored Belle Époque Villa overlooking the spectacular Valle di Comino. Our aim is to celebrate the unparalleled produce of the Apennine mountains of central Italy. For us, it is a daily adventure to source ingredients straight from the mountainside, and to transform them into dishes that are simply delicious and bound to delight. We offer guests a fine-dining experience with a laid-back and playful approach. We are also a wonderful place to stay, with wonderfully comfortable rooms all with expansive views over the valley and surrounding countryside where our guests can explore the rich food culture of this beautiful part of Italy This is a place where what you eat for lunch is picked that morning; where you can meet the wine and cheesemakers, come with us to forage from the mountainside, climb the peaks, wander the valley, soak up the sun on the terrace, and dance in the square. When you visit, we invite you to step into our different way of life, and to bring your sense of curiosity and adventure. We look forward to welcoming you to Villa Inglese. Gaynor and Ben

EAT. STAY. EXPLORE is our motto. For us, the most important thing is that our guests are happy. We are a very small restaurant and B&B and many of our clients also become our friends. We want our guests to feel relaxed and happy in a home away from home. Nothing makes us happier than seeing our people relaxing in the garden after a delicious lunch or heading up to the roof terrace to enjoy an aperitif before dinner or just sitting on the restaurant terrace watching the spectacular sunsets over the Valle di Comino planning their adventures for the next day...

Picinisco is a beautiful medieval hilltop town with winding alleyways, an abandoned castle and extraordinary scenery on the edge the spectacular national park of Abruzzo, Lazio and Molise. Explore the mountain trails and forest rambles. Climb the peaks for spectacular views, follow the winding river through the valley, or walk in the footsteps of pilgrims to the 13th-century Santuario di Canneto. The hilltop towns in the Valley all have their own history and are worth exploring. Learn the art of foraging with local guides – hunt for truffles, pick porcini mushrooms and wild asparagus, and then create unforgettable dishes in a Villa Inglese cookery class. Try your hand at making ricotta and pecorino, using methods passed down through the generations. Crush the grapes and learn from the winemakers what makes this terroir unique. Relax with an aperitivo on the roof terrace and enjoy panoramic views. Join the party in the square at one of the many local festivals. Or simply take in the silence of the mountains, the clean air and be still for a moment. We are 2 hours away from Rome, an hour and a half from Naples, 30 minutes from Montecassino, and under 30 minutes from Sora.
