Full description
If you're looking for a gift that hits the spot, you've found the right one!
Treat yourself to a getaway in the Simbruini Mountains, with a night in a B& B in the small mountain village of Rocca di Botte, dinner and breakfast for 2 people.
The spark will be ignited by an archery experience on horseback, to be transformed into a fun challenge for couples!
What we will do
Check-in is from 15: 00 at the B& B in Rocca di Botte (AQ) , in the heart of the Monti Simbruini Park.
You will stay in a double room, equipped with an en suite bathroom with shower, courtesy kit, hairdryer, heating and free Wi-Fi. Some rooms are equipped with a TV.
After settling in, you can relax and prepare for the included dinner at the manager's hamburgeria, about 1 km from the B& B. The menu includes a choice of fried food, a sandwich and a drink, with vegetarian alternatives available.
The stay also includes breakfast, prepared with local products: zero-km jams, cakes and fresh pastries from the Italian tradition, with a small savoury selection.
The horse archery experience will take place at a riding school in Rocca di Botte, a few minutes' drive from the B& B. It can be done on the day of arrival or the following day, agreeing on the time after the booking confirmation. You will be welcomed by the instructor, an archer and riding expert, who will accompany you for the entire activity.
You will begin with stretching and shooting preparation exercises, followed by the handing over of your bow and arrow. After about 45 minutes of exercises on the ground, it will be time to get in the saddle: depending on your level, you will review or learn the basics of riding. Bow and arrow in hand, you will try to hit targets directly from the horse. The experience will last approximately 1½ hours in total.
Check-out is by 10 a. m.
