The recently restored Tenuta Santa Caterina is an 19th-century residence.
A perfect place to spend a vacation of pure relaxation, immersed in a unique, magical, and natural environment, where time seems to have stopped.
The Palazzo, built in 1800, is the pulsating heart of the structure; it preserves the charm of ancient dwellings while being equipped with all modern comforts.
In the skillfully renovated spaces, you can admire the handcrafted chestnut wood beams, the original fireplaces, and the exposed stone walls, which seem to tell stories of past times when these spaces housed ancient peasant homes.
The rustic-style furnishings make the rooms even warmer and more welcoming, while the large windows allow you to fully enjoy the surrounding panorama.
The restaurant has been masterfully created from the ancient olive press, located near the pool that frames the Palazzo, where you can organize sumptuous banquets. Tenuta Santa Caterina offers two spacious parking lots: one for restaurant guests and one for Bed and Breakfast guests, the latter equipped with video surveillance.
The simplest way to appreciate the beauty of these places is to let yourself be guided by the pleasure of discovery and indulge in complete relaxation.
