Pleasant surprise and then the friendliness of the owners.

Federica and Gaetano are great hosts! Wonderful hospitality, we felt at home!

I stayed at Vecchio Lupo for the weekend, a very nice and recently renovated place in the central pedestrian area. Comfortable room with brand new bathroom. Wi-Fi throughout the property but weak TV signal. Very kind and helpful managers, attentive to every need. The common breakfast area is a bit small but adequate for the number of rooms. The breakfast could be improved, only sweets, no savory and no fresh fruit and bread. A bonus, fresh eggs from the Maiella. Highly recommend!

Excellent reception, clean and well-equipped rooms.

Cozy structure, the managers are very kind and helpful. Impeccable room cleanliness, the structure is kept magnificently. Rich and varied breakfast. Experience to be repeated for sure.

Kind and helpful owners. The Old Wolf.

I wanted to thank and compliment Gaetano and Federica, two very kind and helpful people who give their utmost to meet the needs of their guests in their establishment. Gaetano, on Friday afternoon during the room assignment, after our request on what to do in the town, recommended us to take the Bear's Path (a one-hour forest trail) driving us to the starting point. At the end of the walk, since it was about to rain, he took the trouble to call us asking if he should come back to pick us up by car (never happened in many years of vacations). I found the B&B rooms very beautiful, comfortable, and clean. Not to mention the abundant breakfast with a good selection of products (croissants, yogurt, jams, etc.), good cappuccino, and also the spectacular carrot cake. Thanks again for everything.

We had a great time, it was a pleasant stay. We will definitely come back.

Beautiful rooms, very kind staff, everything well-kept and clean, even Netflix with account already connected and the TV with volume lock to not disturb other guests! I find it a nice touch! The only downside is the slightly small room, but I will definitely come back!

Modern structure with spacious, clean rooms equipped with every comfort. Very welcoming and professional staff. Also suitable for small children. We had a great time and will definitely come back. Thank you for the hospitality and courtesy!

Gaetano and Federica, the managers, are two wonderful people, with a unique kindness and always available. They go the extra mile to meet all the customers' needs. I stayed just one night and the room was cozy and clean. Among the various features, it also had a mini-fridge. The breakfast is plentiful with croissants and donuts. Gaetano and Federica will provide you with all the information and tips to visit the Majella National Park. Gaetano also organizes quad excursions to fully appreciate the beauty of the place. When I return to Campo di Giove next time, I will definitely stay here again.

Beautiful experience at this wonderful B&B, beautiful, spacious and clean room, abundant breakfast with filled croissants, donuts, bomboloni, cappuccino made to order and many other things. Federica is an exquisite, kind, smiling person, always available for anything and advised us on the routes to see the beauties of Maiella! Thank you for the splendid days we spent at Il Vecchio Lupo! Highly recommended, we will definitely come back!

Available, clean and very kind. Optimal location and excellent services. Highly recommended.

Clean, welcoming, and with everything you need for a peaceful stay. Friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommended.

Very nice structure, recently renovated. Excellent cleanliness and very kind and smiling managers. We were enchanted!

Very clean and welcoming B&B, with spacious rooms, excellent and varied breakfast, perfect location (a stone's throw from the old village of Campo di Giove but reachable by car). Gentle and very friendly staff. We will come back.

Lovely place! Courtesy, kindness, and availability. Spacious and clean rooms, very beautiful and well-kept structure. The breakfast in the room, then, is the top! Exquisite and very varied. Thank you.

Simply a wonderful stay! A property equipped with all the comforts and two really delightful owners.

Very beautiful and clean structure, everything is taken care of in the smallest details. The owners are very kind and very helpful. We will definitely come back.

Beautiful recently renovated structure. Clean, in a quiet area and in the center of the village. Gaetano and the lady are kind and helpful, we felt at home. Highly recommended!

What can I say? Everything was perfect, the managers were more than helpful and friendly, a very well-structured and clean B&B. We were comfortable in every aspect and the location offers good activities like excursions, starting from the Quad tour with Gaetano to William's excursions. We will be back.

We were very comfortable in this facility. The owners are very kind and helpful. They suggested restaurants and farmhouses where to dine. I particularly appreciated the breakfast as they also provided the fruit I had requested. The cleaning is accurate and the place is quiet.

Great structure and great location and very kind owners.

Nice property managed by a kind and welcoming couple. Ours was not a room with a view but just stepping out the door leaves you enchanted by the majestic Maiella! Convenient location to reach the center and restaurants on foot. Plenty of attention to anti-Covid regulations. Good value for money. Recommended.

A fabulous location with breathtaking views. The structure is welcoming, clean and comfortable. The manager is present and kind. Excellent value for money.

Completely new structure, but maintains a cozy and mountain style. Perfect both for cleanliness and for the attention to breakfast in the room, with excellent products and homemade cakes closed in plastic bags. Very central and close to the viewpoint over Majella! Really my compliments to the structure, definitely next time in Campo di Giove I already know where to stay! Il Vecchio Lupo.

New structure and in a good location. Friendly managers with excellent tips for getting around. Clean and well-equipped room. B&B Il Vecchio Lupo highly recommended. Until next time, Daniele & Sofia.

We felt like we were at our own home, Gaetano and Federica, the managers, are two extraordinary people, able to immerse us in the paradisiacal context that is the mountain. As soon as we arrived, well in advance and with a different check-in time, Gaetano delivered the room to us after a moment, sanitized in compliance with all COVID government regulations, presenting impeccable cleanliness, inside and out. The rooms are really comfortable, the structure has been recently renovated, very welcoming, so we had the pleasure of staying an extra night, unplanned, both for the context that surrounded us, and for how we were treated. Simple but genuine breakfast, with delicious cakes. In short, we will be back!

Lovely B&B in the heart of Majella just a few steps from the town square. The structure is well taken care of, new, very clean, and immediately gives a sense of warmth. The owners make you feel at home right away and are very helpful in providing all the necessary information. Thanks to Gaetano and Federica, we had a great time. Highly recommended!

Gaetano and his wife manage this bed and breakfast splendidly, pampering you and making you feel at home. Right in the center, a stone's throw from the main attractions. Recently renovated structure, with many family mementos telling a very long and beautiful story. Really well done.

Very new, clean and well equipped apartment, it's a pity that being a mansard on one side, the ceiling is very low.

Brand new and very clean structure, spacious rooms equipped with all comforts. Gaetano and Federica, the owners, welcomed us like old friends. Great starting point for excursions to Monte Amaro.

Really impeccable cleanliness, excellent value for money. Extremely kind and helpful owners. Never seen such impeccable cleanliness! Fully respected and very accurate also the safety measures, implemented to manage the current covid emergency. Very central position in the small village of Campo di Giove, peace and tranquility in the surroundings, despite being close to the center, which is indeed within walking distance. The owners are incredibly kind and very helpful. Very flexible also with the schedules according to everyone's needs. They also kindly allowed us to park the motorcycle in their garage. The room is small, but really equipped with every comfort and tastefully furnished, wonderful in every detail. Very comfortable bed. Breakfast included, for all tastes. Highly recommended!

Great location and value for money. Recently renovated.

Everything very good.

We went on a bike tour in Abruzzo and the B&B Il Vecchio Lupo in Gaetano satisfied us for comfort, hospitality, and great availability and friendliness of the owners! We sincerely hope to return soon.

We travel by motorcycle and had the splendid opportunity to visit Campo di Giove, a small characteristic village immersed in the Abruzzo National Park. We stayed at this B&B managed by two young and splendid people, Gaetano and Federica. We highly recommend it for cleanliness, order, hospitality, and great availability.

This welcoming structure has not so much met the expectations (since we didn't have a particular one) as the feeling of harmony and harmony with the context. After a journey of over 2 hours, we slowly saw the landscape change, the temperature, the atmosphere, and here arises that emotion that only the charm of the mountain can awaken. We arrived directly at the structure and there, through the narrow door, we understood that we were looking for that dimension: we had arrived among the mountains, but above all we were entering mountain life! The perfect and courteous welcome of the owners immediately makes you feel at ease... as if that house was already yours. Ancient and new blend in harmony. During the period we were there, returning to “normal” life after the worst phases of Covid, we greatly appreciated the attention of the young couple (Federica and Gaetano) both for the health measures (distancing and hygiene) and for the attention to detail... all very new elements (they renovated less than a year ago)... but integrated with icons of popular past (wonderful family tree hanging in the hallway as well as the photo of the grandmother... and the old sign of the original inn) and the surrounding nature (images, of wolves, eagles, etc., imprinted on the stone walls or carved on the wooden finishes of the room). In short, an immediate... genuine and sincere... taste that never disappears! The village, Campo di Giove, is human-sized... there is everything for a few (at least in July)... and this increases the perception of welcome and empathy (essential if you stay for just a few days). The rooms do not have balconies but large windows, very bright, which allow nice views of the courtyard below, colorful thanks to a small sitting area with tables and chairs and an enchanted grass garden with dwarfs and dreamlike elements. Breakfast... of course... had to meet the imposed prophylaxis needs... but as soon as possible Federica will surely be able to realize her breakfast idea... made of "zero km" products and curated in every detail. Another reason to come back! There are many things to see... and, when you leave, you are so sure you want to see them that you could easily subscribe to a "I'll be back"! Excellent “homemade” cakes for breakfast... and eggs produced by themselves: never found so fresh! In all this... knowing that a bear passed right next to this B&B increases the dream of a life linked to an intact past... indifferent to the passing of years and trends: here technological development arrives (there is more wifi than GSM) but with respect and discretion... and as long as these oases exist... the heart of every human being... will feel the hope of a better future! "The Old Wolf"... survives and regenerates with this spirit: the sustainability of environmentalist tourism! Long live "The Old Wolf"!

Fantastic location just a few meters from the town center. The managers are very kind and helpful. Room furnished in a very beautiful and clean chalet style, very comfortable bed. I stayed a short time but I will definitely come back to this property. Highly recommended!

Recently renovated structure with taste and simplicity, a rarity in the panorama of B&Bs in Abruzzo. The rooms are quite spacious and welcoming, very quiet. The bed is quite firm and the sheets are of excellent quality and well ironed and set up; the property is absolutely attentive to cleanliness and hygiene in general especially in this particular moment of health emergency. Unfortunately, breakfast is penalized by the need to serve sterile meals, but I would say that this aspect can be overlooked globally.

A location where you can breathe the flavor of a time in a modern key. The recently renovated structure is very welcoming and equipped with every comfort. The place, in the historic center of Campo di Giove, is truly magical. The attention to details and the refinement of the particulars made our stay wonderful. Among the available books to read, there were even some suitable for our little ones. We appreciated the comfort of the beds and pillows, the cleanliness of the rooms. The breakfast is abundant, varied, and they use genuine products. A special thanks to Gaetano and his partner for the courtesy and availability shown to us. We will return.

Beautiful place and excellent welcome. Federica and Gaetano are so kind that make you feel at home.

Beautiful structure very welcoming, recently renovated, very clean and excellent breakfast.

Excellent brand-new and elegant structure, very comfortable overall, from the bed to the pillows, minibar service, large flat-screen television. A very quiet location, perfect for a weekend of peace and tranquility.

With my partner, we decided to spend a few days in the mountains with our four-legged friend. Throughout our stay, we were greeted with a very familiar and hospitable atmosphere at all times. The structure has been renovated just a few weeks ago and still smells new. There is an impeccable care and attention to detail and daily cleaning in the rooms. We stayed in the room of the Vecchio Lupo, furnished in the typical mountain style. There is also a minibar, very convenient (we used it to keep drinks and fruit fresh for our excursions). Federica and Gaetano were loving towards our dog. The breakfast is plentiful with a wide choice. In every room, there are disposable shampoo and shower gel sachets, and the sanitary facilities are brand new. There is wifi in every room and free street parking. You really feel at home! Definitely a place to go back to.

Well-furnished, clean, and comfortable environment. Kind reception. Quiet location. Good breakfast. Availability and kindness of the managers. Definitely worth going back.

Knowing the young owner Gaetano, the qualities of Manuela and Federica and the protagonists of the work carried out, I expected a significant “restyling” of the B&B, seeing it live, the expectations were undoubtedly exceeded: beautiful and welcoming rooms that express the culture, the mountain style and the history of Campo di Giove. The attention to detail makes the environment truly characteristic that makes you want to extend your stay. Highly recommended for those who intend to stay in Campo di Giove in a high-quality Bed and Breakfast, where you can savor the genuine hospitality of the people of Abruzzo. Congratulations!
