Welcome to Ripabianca, a " charme agriturismo " in a farmhouse dating back to the nineteenth century, in the ancient farm of the Count Grizi, 36 hectares of fields and vineyard: "a tradition going on for more than 500 years".
Ripabianca is inside a Natural Regional Reserve managed by the WWF, a protected area extending for 360 hectares, on a hill near the art town of Jesi, a few kilometres from the blue Adriatic Sea: a splendid panoramic view!
Comfort and atmosphere in the suites furnished with period furniture of the family and in the hall with fireplace. Swimming pool, garden.
Dinners or suppers with set menu and obligatory reservation: a fine traditional and ethnic cooking by Lavinia Grizi, the landlady.
We invite you to stay in the authentic atmosphere of a magnificent region that is still undiscovered: The Marches. Rich in tradition, history, art, culinary delights and adorable countryside.
Ripabianca, a typical Marchian colonial farmhouse, restored with particular care to retain original characteristics. By transforming the old stable with columns, walls and exposed tiles, along with a stunning entrance way, we've made an inviting dining room with a wood burning fireplace (naturally we have central-heating also) and a terrace where you can dine on summer nights, hear nightingales and watch fireflies.
There are other interesting features (an old bakery and a room where silk worms wove silk) which are now comfortable rooms for our guests.
The garden and countryside are perfect for relaxing walks among mulberry, pine and young olive trees and in the shade of a century old oak, the swimming pool with a panorama of the vineyards and cultivated fields.
We have named our guest rooms Verdicchio, Rosso Conero, Passerina, Vin Cotto, La Vigna and Lacrima, after renowned regional wines or grape vines. Furnished with antiques, the rooms have traditional ceilings with exposed beams, independent entrances and central heating. In the "Rosso Conero" suite there is a splendid fireplace, in the "Lacrima" suite an old style wood stove. The rooms have spacious bathrooms with windows and showers.
