This ancient residence is perched on top of one of the many hills characterizin the Marche, it is surrounded by an Italian-style garden and a vast wood. The views are truly charming, they extend over the Cesano valley, stretching from the Appennines to the Adriatic sea. We are delighted to invite you into our lavish halls and suites, adorned by the exquisite nineteenth century frescoes of Corrado Corradi, one of the most renowned artists of our region. Here, in this noble castle, Prince Maximilian de Beauharnais, nephew of Napoleon the first, chose to spend his honeymoon after the celebration of his marriage to the daughter of Czar Alexander of Russia. The inside of the palace was decorated, upon his order, for the important occasion. The former cellars, built within the bastions of the castle, consisting of spacious galleries with vaulted ceilings, open up to the garden. These refined and impressive surroundings have been restored to bring them back to their ancient beauty. The four suites are reached through the gallery on the nobility floor, and are richly decorated by frescoes depicting mythological scenes; each one different from the others as to history and decoration, offering ample, comfortable space, richly furnished with period furniture, for relaxation, reading or watching television, Internet connections available, in a calm charming atmosphere of days gone by.

The Villa was built at the beginning of the 18th century as the country residence of the Accorretti family. Through marriage, it later became the property of the Count Carradori, who, at the end of the century, decided to renovate and enlarge it. The restoration was undertaken by architect Pietro Ghinelli of the Van Wittel school. The simplicity of the neo classic architecture of the villa is a prefect example of the essence of the attic style. The frescoed ceilings include vistas of the surrounding landscape. The decoration of the walls are reminiscent of the neoclassicism of scenes that were found in the excavations of Pompei at the time. The characteristic of the scenery of the villa which is depicted in the frescoes and reflected in the garden theatre as well as the park, is the theme playfulness from which the villa derives its original name “Casino di Delizie” (House of Joyfulness). The vast park, totally created for the pleasure of the guests, is divided into the garden theatre surrounded by cypress trees, the terraced Italian gardens, the pools, and romantic paths leading to areas of play. Moreover, the park also includes a hunting lodge, gazebos, porches, tea rooms, greenhouses, bushes enhanced by kiosks and marble statues. All in the purest Arcadian style. After more than fifty years of neglect, the present owner, Marquess Antonella Rangoni Machiavelli, has recently restored the whole complex to its ancient splendour.
