we liked it - Arte Povera on the right as you come out of Marina Altidona heading to Rubianello
Marcella is on 0734 932168 (she speaks no English at all!).

a few 100 metres later on the right is Nuova Edilizia where we found tiles at a good price as well (some were more expensive and some a good deal...)
as always it is worth a couple of estimates.
I have not tried the factory outlet for Iacopini which is in Montefiore (Iacopini is the big store on the main road) but coincidentally will be going there today! Report to follow...

Please do not hesitate to call me direct if you are around
I'm on 348 099 1901

There is another good place in Pedaso- just off the SS16- Lanciotti. This is where we got our kitchen when we had money (the last 2 came from Ikea!)Like lost of other people we did, however, get our appliances separately and saved a fortune- Inueuro is a good place m as is Elletroidea at Comunanza

Default kitchens

Hi - we are looking to replace our kitchen in our town centre apartment in Sansepolcro. We haven't got alot of spare cash - we want to have a fitted kitchen - the space is quite small.

I have been looking at Ikea but have decided I don't like their kitchens that much.

Can anybody help - would be really pleased if anyone could sell me end of line kitchen units - we already have a cooker, fridge etc.
Has anyone got any ideas ?

If you want a small kitchen then you could try falimenti in Tollentino (there's one in Amandola but it's smaller) - when we were there a few weeks ago they had quite a few kitchens which were ex-display - they weren't suitable for what we wanted but they looked good quality & good prices. Some had fitted fridges included as well but you could probably sell these if you don't need them) You might end up with more units than you need but the prices were so good that it might be worth it.

Hi Macs, we are just back from Italy after inspecting our new kitchen. It was a difficult job because the size was very odd, I wanted 50 cm deep cupboards and not the standard 60 in order to better use the limited space available and there was a problem with a very low window that could not be touched.... There was no way that we could buy something ready made. We went to the local cabinetmaker with some plans and sketches drawn by my husband (retired architect) and some simple specifications. I also took the handles for the doors that I had already chosen for the cupboards. The cabinetmaker took care of everything, including the marble people. Everything was perfect. We gave him a small deposit prior to the start of the works and paid the balance at the end. Very happy with the results.

Tolentino, along way from you close to Macerata towards the coast. There is an excellent map, Touring Club Italiano, Umbria and Marche 1:200 000 which you may find helpful.Think they may sell it at Ancona airport but can also be bought in Uk.
