Masseria Straziuso - La Vaccariccia In San chirico nuovo

"The future has an ancient heart," writes Carlo Levi. The Masseria di Beniamino Straziuso is a glimpse of the future in the ancient heart of Lucania. Genuine people, who open their home to those seeking refuge, both physical and spiritual, in this land. You are greeted by the atavistic uncertainties of those who, believing that there is a reason to be in San Chirico Nuovo or Tolve, ask, "Did you come because you have relatives here?", but you leave with the conviction that these places, the people and animals that inhabit them, are a treasure to be treasured and discovered. All around is the silent and respectful futuristic elegance of windmills, placed to guard ancestral paths, traversed by horses, foxes, wild boars, cows, and mythological figures.

This is an authentic country retreat, a genuine farm with the soothing sound of cicadas, crickets, birdsong, mooing and neighing, and cowbells. Far from glossy postcards of "cover-worthy" farmhouses, here you can experience the kindness of the hosts and their amazing cuisine, made with local products and their own livestock. A clean, grass-fringed pool with a sweeping view of wheat fields, spacious, cool, and clean rooms. The owners' dogs are incredibly sweet and contribute to the homely, welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommended for those who want to truly unplug from the frenetic pace of the city. Lovers of cheap shabby chic should refrain.

Walking through the hills of Basilicata we stayed here in the masseria. If you want to get away from the routine, this is the right place. Pool to cool off, excellent cuisine to delight you with all local products, new and spacious rooms, breathtaking views and amazing hospitality... A special thanks to the owner Beniamino who made us feel at home. We will return, we had a great time. Thank you

We have been there for the third time and we will go again. Beautiful place, the food is very good and Beniamino and Paola are really kind and very helpful. Find time for a massage, Paola is very good. Thank you. See you soon

A beautiful farm with modern, renovated rooms and a friendly owner. There are horses, cows, chickens, dogs, and cats. It's especially great for children to explore. The dogs roam freely and sometimes even bark to greet you at the car. So be careful if you're afraid of dogs. But the dogs are very sweet. They also serve dinner there. It's super delicious and very reasonably priced. There's not much around except for a great view, so it's a great place to eat. There's also a playground for children. Unfortunately, the pool wasn't open when we were there (mid-May).

Had a perfect experience with Paula and Benjamin. Delicious food, dinner taken care of down to the last detail. We were allowed to just come with the camper and stay one night. Highly recommended. Bravo and thank you!

If you want to get away from routine and are looking for Peace this is the right place. My two year old had a lot of fun with all the animals and the huge space to play, the sunsets were just special ❤️ Congratulations also for the truly delicious food. We will definitely be back, a hug to the very kind owners!

Great place for a very welcome stay in a quiet area. The room was very nice with a great view. The diner was excellent! Very fresh and tasteful. Also very good glutenfree options.

Great place for a quiet stay! You feel very welcome here! The food was really great.
