15 minutes from the sea, worlds away from the crowds
The villa sits on a hilltop about 10 kilometres from the coast, just outside the town of Guglionesi. Termoli, its beaches and its port are around a 15 minute drive. That short distance is the whole point: you spend the day at the beach or exploring the old town, then return to a garden, a pool and silence, instead of a hot, busy seafront.
What to do in Termoli
- The borgo antico: the walled medieval old town juts into the sea, ending at the Swabian castle and the cathedral. It is made for an evening stroll and an aperitivo.
- The beaches: long sandy stretches on either side of the headland, plus quieter options toward Campomarino, 5 km south.
- The Tremiti ferry: the fast boat to the islands leaves from Termoli each morning in season. See our Tremiti Islands guide.
Where to eat
This is a fishing town, so the seafood is the reason to come. The signature dish is brodetto, a rich Adriatic fish stew, alongside freshly grilled fish landed the same day.
In Termoli
Guests rate Da Nicolino for the best fish stew, with Mare e Monti (fish and meat), Svevia and Miseria e Nobiltà close behind. For pizza, Pizzeria La Gioconda is the local pick.
Just outside town
In Campomarino, Nonna Rosa is the place for bistecca alla fiorentina, and La Casina del Porto is a wonderful agriturismo dinner run by a mother and son, everything fresh and local, served as a generous multi course meal. For wine, Catabbo in San Martino in Pensilis pours Tintilia, the indigenous Molise red, and Falanghina.
Everything close at hand
The town of Guglionesi, a few minutes from the villa, has all the day to day services you need: shops, pharmacies, bakeries, cafes and banks. And when you fancy a change from the beach, the villa is also a natural stopover toward Puglia and the Gargano, 50 km to the south.

How far is Villa Angiolina from Termoli?
Termoli, with its old town, beaches, train station and ferries to the Tremiti Islands, is about 15 minutes away by car. The villa is roughly 10 kilometres from the sea, on a quiet hilltop just outside Guglionesi.
Is it better to stay in Termoli or just outside?
Termoli is lively and lovely to visit, but in July and August its population swells from around 30,000 to 100,000 and both prices and noise rise with it. Staying 15 minutes out at Villa Angiolina gives you a pool, a garden, free parking and quiet nights, with the beach and old town an easy drive away.
What is there to do in Termoli?
Walk the walled old town (the borgo) out to the castle and cathedral, spend the day on the sandy beaches, catch a ferry to the Tremiti Islands, and eat superb Adriatic seafood. Termoli is a working fishing port, so the fish is landed the same day.
