Poggio di Luna is situated up on a small hill surrounded by four hectares of ancient olive groves. The lovely villa lies up a minor road only 7 km from the pretty port of Peschici on the coast of the Gargano Peninsular, the spur above the boot of Southe Italy.
The villa, pool and terraces have been designed to take full benefit of the views to the South and West of the old pine and oak forest and the olive grove. It is so tranquil that one can hear birdsong at dawn and dusk.
The bedrooms are light and spacious, furnished simply and stylishly. The areas around the pool, bar terrace and restaurant are kept immaculately and abound with palms and flowering shrubs.
Breakfast is simply quite delicious with freshly baked brioche, croissant, bread served with soft ricotta cheese and outstanding homemade orange and apricot jam. To drink there is freshly squeezed orange juice, a variety of teas and Arabica coffee.

Osaria, Giovanni and their daughter, Catia, who own and run Poggio di Luna, believe in the Italian tradition that food is what makes life beautiful. They believe in the quality of homegrown, organic produce and they look after their olive trees which produce a light, fine, virgin olive oil used in the preparation of many of their dishes. Giovanni loves to grow vegetables and herbs at the bottom of the garden which are prepared the local way by his wife, Rosaria.
Other ingredients such as seafood, fish, meat and cheeses are sourced from known fisherman and farmers in the area and delivered fresh daily.
The local, carefully selected Apulia wine enhances each meal and is also great as an aperitif.
Rosaria and Catia plan the daily menu together and are happy to adapt the menu to suggestions from their guests.
