The Villa
WELCOME TO CASA VALENTINO: A PEACEFUL OASIS IN THE APULIA’S GARGANO
Located in Vico del Gargano, at 445 mt above the sea, the fully revamped farmhouse San Valentino is stunningly surrounded by the Gargano National Park typical greenland – namely olives, holms and more – and hosts up to 8 guests. A private, comfortable place endowed with any facilities and 100% ready for any seaside and nature lover in search of an amazing paradise spot facing the Apulia Mediterranean.
The farmhouse used to be a stable for horses, kettle and farmers’ equipment to recover. Lately it has been fully revamped and given new life while faithfully keeping the typical rural touch of the local Gargano’s houses. The operation results now in a mouth-gaping place where to spend your holidays in absolute relax.
Overlooking the sea as well as fully equipped, Casa Valentino shows a breathtaking view onto the Adriatic, in which close-by town Peschici stands out in full swing with all of its typical white houses. At its back, about 1 km far from Casa Valentino, sits renown resort town Vico del Gargano – that is also the administrative center and actual gate on to the huge green lung of Foresta Umbra natural reserve.
The farmhouse is about 6 km from San Menai and Centro Scalini beaches and 1 km from Vico del Gargano’s old town – ranking in the top 100 best kept old villages of Italy.
Discreetly aloof, the house grants peace, freedom and privacy to those seeking a relaxing way out of urban frenzy. As far as noise goes, soft wind blowing and cicadas chirping will the loudest you will ever have to deal with.
