My partner and I are just back from a wonderful stay at Locanda Angelica. The stunning surroundings, peaceful garden, lovely cottage and last but not least the hospitality of the entire family made our holiday a very special one! Already when booking directly with the accommodation the daughter Ariana has been very helpful and accommodating. We had initially booked for one week and decided after a few days to extend our stay here, as it was simply everything we wished for.

The staff speaks a little bit of English. This is handy for those usually relying on Google Translate, because you don’t have mobile internet inside the building.
However, be careful when following Google Maps! The (currently) default route from Giarratana leads you over roads that are only accessible with a big 4WD. The right way to get to the restaurant is by taking a right just after leaving Giarratana on the SS194 and then...
