Agriturismo Orrido di Pino

Family run Agriturismo Orrido di Pino has a stunning mountain setting for its beautifully rustic farmhouse near Naples on Italy’s Amalfi Coast. In terms of location it is near to Amalfi town, and to Salerno and Sorrento too, though be aware that the scenic but winding mountain roads will make the journey somewhat slow.

Apart from the incredible views to be enjoyed what guest rave about the most with this agriturismo is the fantastic food on offer, with a great range of organic ingredients coming fresh from the farm; fruits, vegetables and various herbs and spices.

THE ACCOMMODATION:

The have just three rooms at the agriturismo and the place has an intimate, friendly atmosphere.  There is one double and two triples rooms which each contain one double bed and one single.

They are quite minimalist in decor, super clean and the whole property has a nice rustic farmhouse feel. The beds are very comfortable, there is air-con, WiFi and flat screen TV, and some nice en-suite bathrooms.

The view, as mentioned are absolutely beautiful, looking into the mountains and down to the Amalfi Coast below. There is a terrace outside, and a garden, where you can relax in the evening and really soak it all in. Around the gardens you’ll see lots of fruit and vegetable plots.

They grow quite a lot here, everything from figs, squash and zucchini to cherries, pears and plums. Plus lots of herbs and spices too; rosemary, sage, chamomile and fennel to name but a few. The gardens are organic and much of what they produce goes into their superb food.

The accommodation is B&B and the breakfast is generous, fresh and full of variety.  Make sure to enjoy some of the fabulous evening meals at the restaurant too where you’ll have a great choice of traditional Amalfian, Campanian and Italian food.

THE LOCATION:

Agriturismo Orrido di Pino is about 35km south of Naples just inland from one of Europe’s most revered stretches of coastline, the Amalfi Coast. There is a huge amount of great scenery to be enjoyed in this area and having a car would be a good idea, both in getting to the farmstay and getting around the area.

The farm is high in the hills and as you can imagine there is some great hiking to be done all around. You can wander off into the hills at you leisure yourself, or the agriturismo owners can arrange hiking excursions for you, such as along the famous Path of The Gods or into the Nature reserve of Valle delle Ferriere. And they can also arrange various other tours and excursions, including horse riding, around the Amalfi area and beyond.

WHAT OTHER GUESTS SAY:

“Perfect location for Path of the Gods in a really beautiful spot. Room was lovely, food was amazing (along with homemade limoncello) and the staff were so nice. Not the place for you if you want a beach trip but if you want peace and quiet in a gorgeous location with great hikes then stay here!….”

“Amazing hospitality, we honestly couldn’t have asked for better hosts. The property is located on a picturesque cliff and is definitely a place that you look forward to returning to after a day of sight seeing on the Amalfi Coast. Dinners at Orrido di Pino were amazing, lovely fresh pasta, garden fresh salads and delectable desserts rounded off with a customary home made limoncello. We would love to return there again. We had a fantastic stay at this amazing place…”
