Villa
Situated in the middle of the Parco del Cilento and stuck between lush green slopes and the sea whose penetrating fragrance fills up the air, 'The Estate il Pilaccio nel Cilento' is the ideal place to enjoy the colours, the flavours and the odours of nature.
The House was built in 1875 near the old Convent of Santa Maria dei Martiri. In 1400 a small village started to grow around the convent and became famous for a market where local products were sold every Saturday. Being Saturday the market –day, the village was named 'Forum Sabati' – Mercato del Sabato (Saturday Market) - later simply renamed 'Mercato'

Our family villa looks out over the sloping coast bordering the crystalline waters of Punta Licosa Marine Reserve and is surrounded by a beautiful garden with secular trees and colourful varieties of flowers together with a splendid swimming-pool viewing the Isle of Capri and the Amalfi Coast. An extension of 110 hectares of woods and a large green area densely planted with olive groves which give a delicious extra-virgin olive-oil produced according to old traditional procedures are to complete the magnificent scenery.
Faithful to the principle of respect for the environment and the need for tranquillity, the Estate il Pilaccio' is ready to welcome you into a peaceful and familiar atmosphere for days to spend in complete relax in touch with nature. In its warming hospitality, moreover, nature and culture can find matching interests: either sites of archaeological interest or spots renowned for their lovely natural beauties can be found in a short reach. This makes our resort house the ideal place not only to spend a quiet holiday, but also to get a chance to satisfy your archaeological, historical and artistic interests in excursions to enchanting places such as Paestum, Padula, Velia, Pompei, Capri, Palinuro and the Amalfi Coast.
'The Estate il Pilaccio nel Cilento' is able to combine the pleasures of tranquillity, relax, culture to the pleasure of healthy eating. Genuine local products grown in our orchard will give you an occasion to taste deliciously flavoured dishes belonging to Cilento antique tradition. The local cuisine, in fact, is rich in typical products manufactured following old traditional recipes.

A true palace set in an exquisite landscape!
We were a group of 12, across the 6 bedroomed Palazzo. The place is very spacious with high ceilings and plenty of period furniture. It really does maintain that 18th century feel; the wide stone staircase and wood burn oven. It's not for the 'home comforts' sort of people - it doesn't have ensuite showers etc, but the 2 bathrooms did just about suffice, but saying that, there is free WiFi, although due to the thick walls, it's only accessible near the front office.
The grounds are amazing! No wonder they hold weddings in the grounds. There's a big terrace area, spot-lighted at night - it was great to spend our evenings there with the BBQ and some wine. The pool is also lovely - with superb views over Castellabate and neighbouring villages (and of course, the sea!).
Francesca (the owner/manager) was very accommodating and helpful during our stay.
