Ryanair and EasyJet fly into many regional airports. These include (with travel time by car to Camerino):

Ancona (1h 15 mins)
Perugia (1h 20 mins)
Rimini (1h 45 mins)
Pescara (2 hours)
Bologna Forli (2h 30 mins)
Rome Ciampino (3h 30 mins)

Many international carriers, including BA, fly into Rome Fiumicino (3h 30 mins). It is worth checking prices into Fiumicino, as in some cases they can be comparable to the "budget" airlines. BA also flies from London Gatwick into Bologna (3 hours).

After you have left the airport behind, take the first right turn onto the dual-carriage road (S76), following the signposts to Rome. After some 40 kilometres, the dual carriageway ends and you pass through a series of tunnels. After the last of these (you know it is the last because there are no more and the mountains have been left behind) you continue for about a kilometre where there is a road to the right signposted for Camerino. Take this road and follow it through Cerreto d’Esi and Matelica. You then come to Castelraimondo but you do not enter the town. Keep on, following the signs to Camerino. After some 4 kilometres, you arrive at a very small village called Canepina. There is very little there but, on the right, you will pass a bar and, immediately afterwards, a post office on the left. Then there is a cemetery on the right. Just ahead of this, there is a road to the right (leading to the Camerino sports centre). When you see this, begin signalling to turn left because, almost immediately after the road to the right, there is one to the left (without a signpost). This left turn is the road you want. 
After about a kilometre and several bends, just after passing a restaurant on the left, a farm on the right and a couple of houses, on a bend there is a left turn off the road into the strada bianca (‘white road’) leading to the house – when it’s hot, the road is dusty and, after rain, a bit muddy but all year round it’s somewhat bumpy! The road goes first goes down a steep slope at the bottom of which is a bend that leads to a bridge crossing a small river. Carry along the road that goes up a hill, past a house at the right and just before you arrive at another half-restored house, you turn right into a long private road that leads only to the house. You drive through the open gates and you have arrived.

Head north along the A1 motorway (towards Florence). You leave this road at Orte. After paying your toll, turn right on the road heading for Terni. Continue to Spoleto and then to Foligno. Here you leave this road, following signs to Camerino and Macerata. You climb up through the mountains, passing through Colfiorito and Seravalle di Chienti. Shortly afterwards, you leave turn off the road to the left signposted for Camerino. You continue to wind your way up the mountains but, eventually you begin to descend and Camerino lies ahead. Just after driving through the small village of Morro, you pass the Camerino hospital on the left and the road joins another. Turn left on the new road (towards Camerino and follow the bends up the hill. Do not follow the signs to the right for Camerino. Continue along the road (250) and, after less than a kilometre, you pass through a small tunnel. There is then a road to the right. Do not take this but continue but stay on the road that sweeps round a bend. Just after this, there is a road off to the right. This is the one you want! Go up the hill to the top where there is a T-junction. Turn left there, passing the supermarket, Il Paniere. Stay on this road. After some 400 metres, you will pass on the right, a long tree-shaded drive to Villa Ridente. Shortly afterwards, there is a blind corner round a house next to the road. After that you can see your destination, a white house, across the valley to the right. After passing two more houses on the right, on a bend, is the strada bianca (‘white road’) leading to that house. It first goes down a steep slope at the bottom of which is a bend that leads to a bridge crossing a small river. Carry along the road that goes up a hill, past a house at the right and just before you arrive at another half-restored house, you turn right into a long private road that leads only to the house. You drive through the open gates and you have arrived.

In general it is better to try to use the directions above to reach the property; however we have successfully tested entering the exact co-ordinates (43° 09.796' N 13° 04.709' E) into version 6 of TomTom. The system then directed us correctly to our front door!
