Home description
The name of the inn derives from the valley housing it. According to the legend, in the past some people settled not far from the abbey of Santa Maria di Kàlena (one of the most ancient in Italy, 872).The "castellana" was the lady of the castle, of which nothing remains today. She died throwing herself from the tower, after her partner had died during the Crusades.
The inn is situated among the hills of the giant Gargano. 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. "La Castellana" is a holiday farm, only 1 Km far from the town centre of Peschici and 1,5 Km far from the sea.
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. Overnight stay and breakfast (B&B) is offered in different kinds of rooms and flats as the best solution also for families loving a comfortable flat with kitchenette and a hotel-like stay.
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. We speak English, German, and French. A homely and informal atmosphere without neglecting comfort, freedom and the quality of our Italian service.
