About Us
Why Marche?
Founder of Marche Holiday Homes
Felix Stewart fell in love with Marche
when he first travelled to the region in 1997. He explains:
"I knew Marche
was in Italy but not an awful lot more."
"Coming from North Yorkshire, a part of England not short on landscapes or history itself, I was instantly mesmerised by Marche's enchanting mixture of wild beauty, warm and friendly people and relaxed way of life.
"After numerous trips and holidays I finally decided to move to the region in 2000 and have never looked back.
"Today my love of Marche
is stronger than ever and I still wonder at its stunning scenery - the beautiful medieval towns, rolling hills, secret valleys and miles upon miles of beautiful coastline - and its strong traditions and superb cuisine.
"Having fallen in love with Marche I introduced it to my brothers and sisters, who are now regular visitors with their families.
"But organising much of their accommodation I discovered suitable places to stay were not always easy to find. So I resolved to make it easier for people to come and enjoy Marche, staying in one of its many wonderfully restored properties, and the result is Marche Holiday Homes."

Why Tuscany?
Founder of Marche Holiday Homes
Felix Stewart first fell in love with Italy in 1997 when he first travelled to the region of Marche, bordered by the Adriatic Coast in the east and Tuscany and Umbria in the west.
"I knew of Tuscany and Umbria, although I had never been to either and had barely even heard of Le Marche."
"All that rapidly changed and I now spend as much time as I can enjoying the landscapes and the history of all three. Tuscany, Umbria and Marche are similar but so very distinctive.
"Together they form the heart of Italy and boast some of the most stunning scenery to complement their wealth of art, culture and history.
"Today my love of central Italy is stronger than ever and I still wonder at its people and places - the beautiful medieval towns, rolling hills, secret valleys and miles upon miles of beautiful coastline - and its strong traditions and superb cuisine.

Why Puglia?
Founder of Marche Holiday Homes Felix Stewart discovered Puglia after moving to Italy permanently in 2000.
Having established a successful business as a provider of luxury villas and apartments in central Italy and promoting the Marche region especially, he began travelling Italy in search of other unspoilt regions - and came across Puglia:
"Puglia is like nowhere else in Italy. The oca red soil, deep blue skies, stunning coastline and relaxed lifestyle and attitude are all part of its charm. Add to these the singular architecture and the wonderful culinary delights of the region and you're soon hooked."
"Coming from North Yorkshire, a part of England not short on landscapes or history itself, I have found Italy a fascinating place to live and work, and Puglia offers all that is best about Italy. Wonderfully relaxed and friendly people and a slow southern Mediterranean rhythm that is intoxicating.
"So having already established Marche Holiday Homes we were very excited to extend our range of holiday accommodation and locations in Italy to Puglia, which really offers a unique experience of the country in one of its lesser known but no less beautiful regions."
"Our vocation has always been to provide a lovely location for people to spend the most important two weeks of their year. And with our properties in Puglia we have certainly striven to achieve that."
