‘La Focazza’ Farmhouse

About this hotel

Nestled in the tranquillity of the Cilento countryside, the “La Focazza” farmhouse is a place where nature, relaxation and authenticity come together in perfect harmony. Nestled on a splendid panoramic hill just a stone’s throw from the historic centre of Ascea, in the heart of the Cilento, Vallo di Diano and Alburni National Park, the agriturismo offers a breathtaking view of the crystal-clear waters of the Gulf of Velia and the promontory of Capo Palinuro.

Surrounded by majestic centuries-old olive trees and nestled in the greenery of the Mediterranean scrub, the ancient stone farmhouse, skilfully restored, retains all the charm of Cilento’s rural tradition. The cosy rooms and relaxing atmosphere make the property ideal for those seeking an authentic holiday, far from the hustle and bustle and in close contact with nature.

The agriturismo offers comfortable rooms with attention to detail, furnished with simple, understated taste, designed to ensure peace and well-being. Many rooms look directly out to sea or onto the spacious outdoor terraces, perfect spots for relaxing in the shade of the olive trees, reading a book or letting the sea breeze lull you on hot summer days. The bathrooms, finished with fine Vietri ceramics, add a touch of elegance and local tradition.

Staying at La Focazza means enjoying an experience that goes beyond a simple overnight stay. Guests can discover the authentic flavours of Cilento through tastings of local specialities, explore nature trails and historic villages in the area, take part in excursions in the park, or enjoy outdoor activities such as walks and experiences in the heart of nature.

The strategic location also allows easy access to the sea at Ascea, the Blue Flag beaches of the Cilento coast and important cultural sites such as the Velia Archaeological Park, one of the region’s most fascinating historical treasures.

Surrounded by an extraordinary natural heritage, including wildlife, olive groves, Mediterranean scents and unspoilt landscapes, Agriturismo La Focazza welcomes guests from April to October, the ideal time to experience Cilento amidst the sea, nature and relaxation, immersed in the tranquillity of the Mediterranean countryside.
