- Traveller rating:
La Locanda della Castellana, situated among the hills of the giant Gargano, is a sort of holiday farm, only 1 km far from the town center of Peschici and 1,5 km far from the sea. Dry-stone walls, lemons, figs, prickly pears, olive trees and pines form its background, exalted by the breeze coming from the sea, a panorama which alone would be worth a stay of a couple of days. It represents a safe, pleasant, and regenerating departure point to discover the promontory, its gorges, beaches, woods, and sanctuaries. Extra-virgin olive oil, wine, fruit, and vegetables are produced and offered to the guests during the simple candlelight dinners in the large terrace overlooking the sea. The breakfast, offered until late in the morning, meets the needs of all the clients: warm croissants, cold cuts, local cheese, home-made cakes and jams, fruit. The restaurant is also at the disposal of the idle tourist for typical and not expensive dinners, to spend the evening chatting until late at night, sipping a fine wine near the swimming-pool. English, German, and French are talked. A homely and informal atmosphere without neglecting comfort, freedom and the quality of our Italian service.
