Bed and Breakfast San Marco Pacentro

Situated in the charming centre of Sulmona, Clemente has for many years offered guests a simple, welcoming ambience in the restored stables of a palazzo dating from the early 19C. The menu has an exclusive focus on ingredients from the Abruzzi, including home-made pasta “alla chitarra” and the use of saffron from Aquila. The main courses are all meat-based, while among the desserts the Pan dell'Orsosemifreddo is particularly delicious. Although the portions are generous, most of the dishes are also available in half-portions. Aperitifs are served in the bistro-style room.

Situated in a district of Caramanico, this typical stone house is home to an attractive restaurant that is the perfect choice for anyone keen on typical Abruzzo specialities. Prepared from regional ingredients, the dishes are delicious and substantial.

Up until a few years ago, the owner-chef at this restaurant was working as a painter – a fact that is evident from the artistic touch in his cuisine. His recipes are modern and personalised, with careful attention naturally paid to harmonious presentation, while the flavour of his dishes is brought out by ingredients that are skilfully chosen from the Abruzzo inland area. In 2024, the restaurant moved to new, centrally located premises which have an intimate feel and are elegant and minimalist in style.

Known throughout Italy for its pillow lace, the small town of Pescocostanzo in the Parco della Maiella is one of the most beautiful in Italy. It is also home to the Relais Ducale hotel and its La Corniola restaurant, which is renowned for its excellent modern Abruzzo cuisine, including delicious, seasonal dishes made from different vegetables, potatoes and onions grown in the hotel’s own kitchen gardens. Simple yet elegant dining room.
