My week-long stay was perfect, exactly what I expected from an agriturismo in the Basilicata region, an area that deserves to be better known! We loved our apartment, which felt more like a house, with a terrace overlooking the mountains of Basilicata and Calabria. Surrounding it was a wonderful garden with a hammock, games, and a barbecue area. We met the owner on arrival and departure, and it was (finally!) nice to be able to chat with the host and exchange information about the local area where we were staying. For me, this is an important point compared to rentals with a lockbox, which have become impersonal. Here, the owner even treated us to vegetables from her garden (eggplants, tomatoes, peppers, peas, etc.). The apartment was large, with very airy and spacious rooms, and above all, very clean. Plus, there was a washing machine. We felt very comfortable and were able to enjoy the magnificent beaches of Maratea and the mountains of the Pollino Natural Park. The small town of Trecchina is very close and offers affordable shops, and Maratea is just a few minutes away. The elevated location allowed us to enjoy perfect weather for July, especially with very pleasant nights. Our only regret is not staying at least a week longer to enjoy a boat trip and visit a few more beaches... All the best to Agriturismo Collevento!
