Casa Della
Loggia
Casa Della Loggia, which sleeps up to 4 people,
is situated in the 'Antico Borgo' - the historical centre of Calitri
- a labyrinth of pretty
cobbled streets leading up to a piazza and an 11th century castle.
Casa Della Loggia is in a pedestrian only street with free parking
only a couple of minutes away and provides recently renovated
(2008) two-bedroomed accommodation over two floors. It is entered
through a semi-private verandah leading from an ancient arch.
The front door
opens into a large open plan living area from which you can look
up to see the mezzanine floor and vaulted ceiling. The kitchen
area contains storage cupboards, a fridge, washing machine,
gas cooker, microwave oven, electric kettle and a toaster. There is also a working log fire (logs provided and kept in the cave) and a portable gas fire for early spring and late autumn evenings.
The living/dining
area has a sofa, a sofabed, a coffee table and dining table
and chairs. There is also satellite TV and a DVD player. Bedlinen,
towels, a hairdryer and iron are provided. These houses were built
into the hillside and Casa Della Loggia has a grotto which helps to keep the house cool during the warm summer months,
as does the large electric ceiling fan.
The double bedroom
is upstairs on the mezzanine floor, overlooking the living area
below and, itself, directly below the vaulted ceiling, as is the
passageway which leads to the door to the single bedroom. The
single bedroom has french windows which open onto a small balcony
which has the same stunning views as the verandah.
We would prefer it if you did not smoke inside the house but an ashtray is provided for
those who wish to smoke on the verandah or upstairs balcony.
