CASTELLACI
Part of an old feudal estate, belonging for generations to the current owners' family, this 320 hectare estate is sheltered by the Appennine mountain range behind (25kms) and faces the Gulf of Squillace (7kms). The fascinating upland landscape displays a stunning range of colours, from the silvery greens of the olive groves to the typical multi-coloured shades of the Mediterranean vegetation and is a splendid frame to the proverbial Calabrian hospitality, ensuring an all-round holiday with relaxation, the sea and cultural attractions. Near the mountains of the Sila Piccola, a large nature park, are the interesting archaeological sites and the Byzantine cathedral of Borgia. Not far is the Castella with its Marine Reserve and beautiful Aragon castle which stands on a small peninsula only a few metres from the beach, and Capocolonna where visitors can admire the "colonna " (pillar) the remains of an ancient temple and the city of Crotone (45kms) important centre of Magna Graecia era.
The apartments, furnished with family furniture, all have pleasant outside areas and air-conditioning. The beautiful swimming pool (7 x 14 m. - open June/Sept.) is set amid centuries-old olive trees with jacuzzi and children's play area. There is a large and delightful terrace where visitors will be captured by the stunning view and then delighted by a visit to the 16th century family chapel with original archways and wood-panel painting depicting the Holy Family.
