beach cafe Lido at Roseto, Abruzzo

Oh here are a couple of reasons to come for a quick holiday or mini break in Abruzzo for a self-catering holiday.  Ryanair has extended its summer sale for October Italian holiday air tickets, and a one way ticket to Pescara is £10 till midnight Wednesday 27th August.  Of course don’t forget to offset those great prices by helping to offset your carbon footprint too, via Climate Care from the UK (it is £2.95 which bearing in mind how cheap your air-ticket is will never break the bank)…let’s see…it is the price of  your morning cappuccino x 2 if you live in the UK.

Fortunately it is still beach time in Abruzzo, not for baking oneself no, you will need to go on a long haul flight somewhere to achieve that, but for taking a lazy walk along the beach, taking a small paddle in the green watered Adriatic and then of course enjoying a fine fish lunch with a glass of delicate Trebbiano d’Abruzzo…. all under bright blue skies peppered with fluffy white clouds.  It’s a world away from stuffing your feet into the heady stilettos and creaking brogues of city work and play…
