NAPLES & CAMPANIA

A charming and beautiful destination with so much to offer.  Friendly people, beautiful towns and villages, rugged coastal landscapes, sandy beaches in part, great food and a great destination for a short or long visit. 

 

 

 

Where to start as this region has so very much to offer and there is something here for everybody…. We start our journey from Naples airport and make our way to this wonderful relais. The soft lighting, the fantastic views, breakfast on your balcony above the sea, long swims in the blue Mediterranean, unforgettable sunsets just add to the fairy tale and romantic atmosphere.  This relais is all about relaxation. 

 

 

 

We will now leave this destination and head to one of the islands.  For this part of the journey we have selected the island of Ischia.  If you are looking for an authentic southern Italian holiday then Ischia is a real find. Classic Mediterranean weather, local wine, wonderful cuisine and above all an award winning thermal spa experience lies in wait. An exclusive and award winning 5 star spa resort, nestled on a private beach and framed by rocky cliffs and pine groves, the resort is located next to the picturesque village of Lacco Ameno. Each of the rooms and suites have been individually designed to reflect the hotel’s Neapolitan heritage, but with a modern twist. 

 

 

We now head back to the mainland and we would suggest at this stage hiring a car to get you to your next destination.  A completely different property lies in wait. This bed and breakfast offers a total of only 10 comfortable rooms but what amazing views, nothing touches the views on offer here.  Not ideal for those of you afraid of heights.  Everything about this venue is authentic, the people, the location and the food. 

 

 

WHY NOT?  In this area it is possible to do so many things.  We suggest a day’s cookery course and what a cookery course is available.  Spend the day learning how to make exquisite pasta with a true Italian Mamma and then enjoy your prepared meal.  It will be a long day and we suggest booking a taxi back to your accommodation.  OR why not go fishing with Franco for the day and then go back to his restaurant on the beach where he will cook it for you with a glass of Chilled white wine.  OR if your budget allows, why not hire a yacht for the day or for longer with skipper and crew and enjoy the Amalfi Coast from the sea.

 

If self catering is more your style, we have selected 3 luxury style properties for you to enjoy.

 

Check out this property which is located about 3.5kms from Positano. The villa is built around the 6x10m swimming pool which is surrounded by open air living rooms with bamboo furniture.  This property can accommodate up to 10 persons.

 

 

 

 

 

If the bohemian look is more your style, try out this lovely apartment with its own independent entrance. With spacious areas with original structure featuring large arches, vaulted ceilings and patios.  Stunning results. A large loft style area which has been created with communicating rooms and a master bedroom.  Truly charming.

 

 

 

Further down the Amalfi Coast, we drop off into Praiano. Offering some great panoramic views of the Amalfi Coast
