Casa Dello Zio Alferio - Holiday home at San Marco di Castellabate

A gem near the sea with marvelous garden

Zio Alferio, in English Uncle Alferio, has turned his holiday home at San Marco di Castellabate into a real gem.

What it offers and what you find there makes it easy to enjoy Italian “dolce vita” during your holidays.

When taking in the well-tended outdoor area and the tasteful interior, which is adorned with quite some pieces of modern art, the fact that the owning family spends holidays at their house in summer, too, comes as no surprise.

The location of Casa dello Zio Alferio leaves simply nothing to be desired: the sea, a small sandy beach and the center of the contemplative and picturesque village of San Marco di Castellabate are within an easy walking distance of only about 300 m.

From the marvelously spacious garden of your holiday home you enjoy a beautiful view of the sea and the UNESCO World Heritage listed mountain village of Castellabate.

Put up your lounger anywhere on the lawn to enjoy a sunbath or relax in the pleasant shade of the palms, fruit trees and Mediterranean plants. Seated in the lovely garden pavilion, you might set plans for the next day or enjoy an early evening aperitif.  

Ground-level holiday home with "buon gusto"

The ground-level holiday home offers 100 m² of living space, its furnishing reflects the owners’ “buon gusto” – their good taste. Paintings of contemporary artists as well as high-quality curtains and bedcovers harmonizing in color make for an individual atmosphere in each room.

The heart of Casa dello Zio Alferio is its 35 m² living/dining room with sea view, WLAN and Sat-TV.

The couch set held in maritime colors and the elegant fireside provide for the right atmosphere to let the evening fade away while enjoying a glass of wine. The adjoining open dining room with its stylish glass table appears bright and airy.

The two bedrooms are furnished with a double bed and air conditioning each. Charming canopies promise sweet dreams; solid wooden furniture creates a tasteful ambience.

Casa dello Zio Alferio includes two bathrooms, each with shower cabin, WC and bidet.

The fully equipped kitchen of your holiday home features, amongst others, a dishwasher and an espresso machine. Very convenient: you can enter the kitchen from both the hallway and the dining room. 

Spacious outdoor area

For all those who value spending time outdoors during their holidays, Casa dello Zio Alferio might be the right choice. Right in front of the entrance to the house, there is what might rightly be called "outdoor living space": an open veranda with two charming sets of seating accommodations, where you can enjoy a leisurely breakfast in the morning and whatever you have prepared on the grill in the evening.

The sea view terrace with dining table, chairs and bench in front of the house is a wonderful spot to watch the sun set. The tall, old trees in front of the terrace offer natural shade. 

The pavilion is also furnished with a table and chairs. Should you want to take a short time-out, you can do so by relaxing on the sunbeds in the garden.

It is a walk of only a few minutes to the local tennis court. Restaurant "Quasi In Porto" near the harbor and also within walking distance is open year-round and almost every day for lunch too. The lovely bar next-door offers small snacks and is the perfect place for an aperitivo. 

Small grocery stores, tabacchi and more restaurants are found at the church square and in the small alleys around that piazza. You should also stop by Bar and Caffetteria Torretta at the entrance to the village (at the roundabout). The sweet pastries in the glass display counter are really hard to resist. Welcome to the South!
