Curated Guide

Exploring the Region

A collection of local gems recommended by Zia Nì for an unforgettable Italian getaway.

Foresta Umbra

A majestic primeval forest of beech and oak trees. Its deep shade (Umbra) offers a cool sanctuary from the summer heat.

Marine Caves

The coastline has over 50 beaches and hidden bays. Accessible only by boat, the marine caves reveal hidden caverns, arches, and secluded inlets with crystal-clear water and dramatic limestone formations.

Tremiti Islands

Just offshore, the Tremiti Islands provide a further highlight—clear waters, small coves, and a more remote, untouched atmosphere, ideal for a day trip.

Vieste: White Cliffs

The gateway to the Gargano, defined by the Pizzomunno monolith and breathtaking sea caves carved into limestone.

Peschici: The Pearl

A labyrinth of white-washed alleys perched high above the crystalline sea, famous for its ancient fishing platforms.

We are incredibly proud of our vegetable garden and fruit trees at Zia Ni.
We don’t use any fertilizers or pesticides, and our seasonal produce is fresh, flavourful and organic.
Growing your own produce allows you to harvest when the food is at its very best and so the fruit from our trees go straight to your breakfast table and the selection is abundant: apricots, medlars, mulberries, watermelon, peaches and pomegranates.

The swimming pool is black bottomed, to better fit in with the natural surroundings. It was built along eco friendly guidelines , and is sustained with water from our borehole.
