Check out the local market towns of Tolentino and Macerata with its open air opera festival or the beaches of Le Conero National Park. All sorts of activities can be found nearby including :-Photography,Painting,Walking/Nature Rafting,Sky diving and if you feel like a little pampering vist Voglia di Bellizza in Appignano for a massage etc. If that's all too energetic, just relax by the pool and soak up the atmosphere.
