UN ARRIVEDERCI A MATERA
Si, un arrivederci perché al più presto io e la mia famiglia ritorneremo. Non avevamo ancora visitato Matera e ce ne siamo subito innamorati attraverso il breve incontro con Valeria e Giuseppe i proprietari di questo incantevole " granaio " ristrutturato, dove regna l'atmosfera dei sassi, dei luoghi e l'amore per questo meraviglioso posto. Il lamione come già detto nelle precedenti recenzioni è provvisto di tutto l'occorrente ed è situato nel Sasso Caveoso in una posizione comoda da raggiungere in auto, la quale si può lasciare parcheggiata, visto che durante il soggiorno il centro si raggiunge comodamente a piedi. Tanti saluti, un grazie e un arrivederci a Valeria e Giuseppe.

beautiful spacious apartment
Valeria and her husband made us feel very welcome on arrival. The property is refurbrished from a traditional cave style home of Matera at the entrance near the old part of the city. It is well equippped and extremely spacious and is within walking distance to the Sassi and other attractions and restaurants. The weather when we visited was cold for a few days but inside the heating was efficient and kept us lovely and warm. Thank you so much for a very lovely stay in your beautiful country .

La casa che non ti aspetti
Le foto non rendono pienamente l'idea dell'ampiezza della casa! Abbiamo trovato veramente tutto quello che potesse servirci, proprio come se fossimo nella nostra casa, pulito, ordinato, con libri interessanti e addirittura dei giochi per bambini. La collocazione è perfetta per chi dovesse arrivare in auto perché è appena fuori dallo ZTL ma mettete in conto una passeggiata per andare e tornare dal centro (non lunga ma a Matera si cammina tutto il tempo quindi è opportuno riservare le ultime energie per il rientro). Massima disponibilità del proprietario... cosa volere di più?

Vacanza indimenticabile
Il lamione è in posizione strategica, a pochi passi dal centro. Ristrutturato finemente e con gusto, in modo rispettoso dei canoni architettonici originari. La sua collocazione consente di immergersi nella realtà storica (e magica) della città, sentendosi nel contempo parte della realtà della vita quotidiana del luogo. Proprietari molto cortesi e disponibili. Soggiorno da consigliare a chiunque.

tre giorni splendidi
Lamione ristrutturato con gusto e con tutto il necessario per stare a Matera in modo indipendente. Si trova in una posizione strategica all'inizio del Sasso Caveoso e quindi è davvero comodo per chi arriva in automobile e per i servizi essenziali come farmacie e alimentari. Ma soprattutto è stata la nostra salvezza nei giorni di estrema calura d'agosto quando tra le 12 e le 16 h era decisamente meraviglioso starsene al fresco rifugiati in grotta. La sera è invece splendido passeggiare e perdersi per la città col fresco e senza alcuna fretta, la zona è tranquillissima. I proprietari sono molto gentili e disponibili, alla mano e sorridenti (che fa sempre piacere). Siamo stati come coppia e lo consigliamo vivamente!

Why they chose this property

Living and sleeping in a lamione means rediscovering the peace and relaxation of a rocky environment. The lamione has for centuries been the home of the peasants of Basilicata. For many years, this structure has been used for its particular microclimate for storage of grain.
