Casa dei gabbiani”in Peschici, Gargano, is the ideal place for those who love silence, nature, who like admiring the deep blue sea from the balcony overhanging it, the coloured sunsets and the seagulls flying in the air.
The apartments are situated in the Baronial enclosure of Peschici castle, the fortress which was built in Medieval times in a strategic position to defend Gargano from Saracens raids. They are on the edge of a 90 mt cliff in the oldest part, the heart, of the village in a pedestrian area. From the wide verandas the sight is breathtaking.
The larger apartment can host up to 6/7 persons. It consists of a living room with double loft with two beds, kitchen (fridge, four burners) sat TV, 2 bedrooms, two bathrooms with shower and veranda with the view of “porto”.
The second one can host up to 4 persons. It is an open space: living room with sofa bed, kitchen corner, double beds, bathroom with shower and veranda with the view of Baia di Manacore.
With a 15 minutes walk from “Porta wascia”, the antique access to the village and to the castle for those who arrived from the sea, on a quite steepy path you can reach the wide village beach.
The surrounding area
The village of Peschici is the “gem” of Gargano; it is a cliff-top village which dates back to 950 A.D.. It is a cumulous of little white houses scattered across the rock and from afar you are dazzled by the white houses in the sun; at night it looks like a “crib”… At the foot of Peschici is a white sandy beach and, if you hire a boat, especially in spring and late summer, you discover lonely bays and coves of extraordinary charm. Excursion boats take you to “grotte” and to Tremiti islands.
In Gargano, the promontory in the north of Apulia, nature is the queen. It is strong, wild and very varied: terraced fields, olive plantations, lemons and oranges orchards, Aleppo pines, lakes, steep white coast alternating with large sandy shores, small bays, deep inlets, caves and marine cliffs. Gargano is also a 120.000 hectares National Park with forests, lagoons, marine reserves and mountains.
Every season of the year is worth a visit: choose spring if you love nature and want to look for wild asparagus and for orchids, the queens of the flower kingdom. In Gargano in the woods and hills there is the highest concentration of wild orchids in Europe: 85 species with a stunning range of colours.
Choose summer if you love sea, beaches, music, people and autumn if you appreciate mushrooms, good fish, tranquillity and silence.
You can visit the typical “trabucchi”, antique wooden platforms designed for fishing, now most of them converted into rustic restaurants.
Both in spring and in autumn the weather is mild and you can have nice swims in the sea and get sun tanned
