Company information

Hi, I'm Carmen, founder and owner of Don Giacchì. After living in Rome and obtaining a degree in Economics, I decided to return to Calabria and start this new business in my grandfather "Gioacchino's" farmhouse. It all started as a joke, but my love for travel and the curiosity to meet new people pushed me to pursue this project.

Property information

Don Giacchì Country House is a Spanish watchtower dating back to 1600, of which the original stones, buttresses, loopholes, and pontaie holes are still clearly visible, immersed in the greenery of a hill near the sea. Over the years, it has been converted into a farmhouse by our grandfather Giacchino, who managed the land and where farmers lived, cultivated, and raised animals. After a complete and careful renovation, today the farmhouse is a welcoming structure equipped with all the comforts that allows its guests to enjoy a relaxing stay among the scents of nature and the blue of the sea that blends with the blue of the sky.

Neighbourhood information

Just 15 minutes from the Magna Grecia University of Catanzaro and the Regional Citadel, the structure stands on a hill overlooking the entire seaside district full of refreshment places, cocktail bars and numerous beaches where you can enjoy the most beautiful sea in Italy . At the foot of the structure stands the "Le Fontane" commercial park, with over 50 shops, a supermarket, a cinema and a bowling alley. A few km away you can marvel at the Scolacium Archaeological Park, a combination of ancient Greek and Latin remains, with the ancient theater and the basilica, which in the summer become the setting for musical and theatrical events. In 20 minutes it is possible to reach Caranzaro city and visit the monumental complex of San Giovanni which stands on the area of ​​the Norman-Swabian castle, the Archaeological and Numismatic Museum in the beautiful Villa Margherita and the MARCA. At 10km it is possible to visit the Mediterranean Biodiversity Park, with an area of ​​over 60 hectares and numerous fauna and floral species. At 50km it is also possible to reach the Sila National Park, a wonderful place, waiting to be discovered, full of suggestive itineraries and exciting landscapes.
