At Casa Saltara, every moment becomes a discovery and a connection with the true essence of Gallura. Every space is designed to keep alive the cultural identity of the old artifacts already existing in the stazzo (traditional Sardinian farmhouse). An experience of relaxation in Sardinia that cannot be found elsewhere because it belongs to our family identity. For four generations, Casa Saltara has been our home. For over 30 years, we have made it available to guests. Casa Saltara is a place that has witnessed many stories, works of art, and tradition. Saltara is for us a meeting place for travelers who want to discover the flavors of Sardinia and rest in the shade of the houses among the trees. There is energy at Saltara. You can feel it as soon as you cross the gate. Here, every guest becomes part of the place; they are not just passing through but are part of it.
In Santa Teresa Gallura, nestled in a small valley among granite rocks, our farm stretches across a green space painstakingly carved from the rugged terrain.
As early as the late 1800s, this area was known as "la Cussorgia," a term referring to a cluster of small neighboring farmsteads. It was a fertile and vibrant place, so much so that Petru Alluttu, one of the most important poets of Gallura, was bohere.
Agriculture and livestock farming have always been tied to free-range grazing, with a strong presence of goats and cattle. Even today, in Saltara, we mainly raise rustic Sardinian cattle, perfectly adapted to a harsh and low-yield environment. During periods of severe drought, these animals feed on the Mediterranean scrub, enriching the meat’s flavor with the region’s native essences. The pastures, exposed to the salty mistral winds, give the meat a unique taste, deeply rooted in the Gallurese tradition.
Our farm cultivates high-quality vegetables, following ancient methods without the use of modetechniques. The scarcity of water requires a sustainable and careful approach, respecting the natural rhythms of the land.
