The Property — B&B La Codarda
La Codarda is a small, family-run B&B in a quiet hillside town, with a simple, home-like atmosphere and a wraparound terrace overlooking the Liri Valley. The lobby is a modest sitting room with a wood stove, local pottery on shelves, and the smell of espresso from the adjacent kitchen. It suits walkers and drivers looking for an unfussy base in the Comino Valley, not a resort or a party spot.
Chronicles of Pescosolido
Pescosolido grew around a medieval watchtower built by the Counts of Alvito to control the routes through the Comino Valley. Much of the old centre was rebuilt after a devastating earthquake in 1915, giving it a mix of stone alleys and early‑20th‑century housing. The town remains agricultural, known for its lentils and olive groves, and its demographic is small and largely elderly. Today it is a quiet stop for hikers on the Cammino di San Benedetto and for those exploring the nearby Abruzzo, Lazio and Molise National Park.
