Description
In Centola (SA), in the heart of the National Park of Cilento and Vallo di Diano, surrounded by the green of the hill overlooking Capo Palinuro, 10 minutes from the sea, is born the B&B Il Castello di San Sergio, ideal for those who love to spend a relaxing holiday.

Its location is really strategic:
A few kilometers away there are coastal centers of great tourist attraction such as Marina di Camerota and Palinuro, and at the same time you can visit the beautiful inland villages such as San Severino and Morigerati.

In addition, the Cilento National Park offers nature trails of rare beauty, one of which is only 500 meters from the Castle.

The Castle of San Sergio offers its guests rooms with private entrance, private bathroom and furnishings treated in detail.

Other services offered by the bed & breakfast:
- TV
- Linen exchange
- Daily cleaning and cleaning
- Breakfast
All rooms reflect the elegance and class of the environment.

That’s why even one weekend at Castello di San Sergio becomes magical.

In winter you can have breakfast in the warm lounge of our old fireplace, where you can find books magazines, and a small and selected film library.

During the summer, however, breakfast can also be eaten in the garden outside, in the shade in our pergola.

Breakfast every day is rich and varied, and you can enjoy a variety of local products.

Starting from the month of June also opens our Roof&Terrace, where you can enjoy every day from 19: 00 our tasty Apericena accompanied by cocktails or one of the wines of the different wineries proposed, all served precisely on one of the most beautiful terraces overlooking the sea of the Cilento, which has always given unforgettable sunsets.

The Castle has a large private parking.

Hey from vincenzo

Member since October 2006 | 75,683 hits
Hello everyone, my name is Vincenzo and I manage my B&B together with my family.

I still remember, as if it were yesterday, the first moments, the first guests, the anxiety, the heart to a thousand.

I have the clear image of the first guests ever, a nice Swedish family, that I picked up at the train station.

I remember the embarrassment during the trip, the smiles, trying to be perfect in everything.

12 years have passed since then, so many things have changed, we have made many steps forward, but love, passion has remained unchanged.

Going on holiday in a B&B means being in close contact with the owners, this is why I want to introduce myself immediately and introduce the people you will find and that will guide you throughout the holiday:
my mother, Silvia, an art teacher in middle school in dribbles, grandmother of two beautiful grandchildren.

It is she who took care of all the restoration of the Castle, given the great passion for ancient things, and it is she who takes care of breakfast.

You will find then my sister Maria, mother of a small child, lives in Milan where she manages a beauty center with her husband, but during the summer she feels too much the call of the native land and runs to help.

His task is to follow the guests, give advice and take care of the administrative part.

You will find my wife, Emanuela, working in the Army, but you will be immediately conquered by her sweetness and her calmness, together with my mother takes care of breakfast, and she gave me a wonderful baby for just over a year and a half.

You will also find the real pride of the structure, the real owner, a slim lady, who still carries the signs of work, the woman who has practically lived in the Castle for 94 years, you have understood well you will find my grandmother, always ready to tell anecdotes about our country and our structure.

Finally to follow you step by step, 24 hours a day there will be me, I will let you breathe the air of Cilento in all facets.

My job is to organize trips to our beautiful territory, organize boat trips, recommend restaurants and anything you want.

I worked for three years on the Costa Crociera, then I was in a village in my country and for 12 years I decided to throw myself into this wonderful adventure, which is giving me so much satisfaction.

My biggest passion is football, but I will tell you which team I support only when you will be my guests.

I wait for you.

Vincenzo.

We stayed at this enchanting place for a few days and feel like recommending it to all those who wish to spend a vacation in a special place managed by special people. \nVincenzo and the entire staff are appreciated for their courtesy, genuineness, and willingness to provide advice on activities to do or the best places to eat. \nThe only downside is that sooner or later the vacation ends: -).

We stayed at this property for a weekend in early September with 4 people, 2 adults and 2 children. It is an ancient structure, obviously subjected to interventions over time, on a promontory from which you can enjoy a unique view of Cape Palinuro, where you can breathe medieval air. The structure, although showing the signs of the centuries, is clean, well-maintained, and quiet, completely immersed in nature. From the place, you can easily reach Palinuro and the main places of interest. The management is mainly family-run and the host is always available for advice and information about the area, never intrusive. Full and plentiful breakfast. Cozy rooms in line with the historical appeal, just as expected. I will be back! Highly recommended.

Very charming property, located in a quiet and panoramic position. Being quite high above the coast, you can enjoy a spectacular view from the room (we had chosen a room with a sea view) and from the beautiful garden, where a plentiful and quality breakfast is served in the morning. The owner is extremely helpful and friendly, very focused on guest care, he gave us many excellent tips on what to do and how to make the most of our days available. Excellent value for money. We had a great time.

Excellent structure to stay in, not every day you get to sleep in a fabulous castle, well-kept in detail. We must thank Vincenzo and Mrs. Silvia for the warm welcome. Very kind staff, highly recommended place, not to be missed if you are in Cilento. Rich, varied breakfast, and abandoned served in a garden overlooking the sea, a perfect way to start the day. We will be back very soon!

Simply stunning. In an incomparable position dominating from above Cape Palinuro, the village and the adjacent coastline. Very affable and very friendly managers always ready to provide a suggestion or a reservation at a beach or a restaurant to make the stay more enjoyable and varied. A breakfast with few rivals: plenty of fresh fruit, homemade jams and sweets! If you add that breakfast is served under a beautiful pergola with a view of Cape Palinuro, the score can only be a full 10.

I do not believe there are sufficiently appropriate words to describe this sublime reality. Enchanting and tranquil is the place, absolutely fantastic is the view. We truly savored the feeling of being in another reality. Impeccable cleanliness, fascinating and romantic dépendance. Immense wonder upon arrival observing every little and tiny corner of this prestigious residence. What can I say about the lady queen of the house: humble, very kind, a woman with a capital "D" like few are found, charming, full of charm and culture who welcomed us into her empire making us feel at home. Delightfully treating our palates with her excellent and tasty jams and then that New Year's cake, delicate, mmmhhh if I close my eyes I can almost taste it again. She has entered my heart, her sweet and sincere eyes, her calm and serene way of speaking, I must say I would have liked to stay a few more days. The sweet and juicy mandarins she kindly gave me accompanied me for a few more days. And I will return to her soon. Genuineness and authenticity of the place and the people, never change, see you soon.

Il Castello di San Sergio will remain in our memories for the beauty of the place and the structure. Position with a breathtaking view (both day and night) of Palinuro. The places are unforgettable thanks to a lush nature overlooking a crystal-clear sea. The owners and the staff were exquisitely courteous, available, and professional. The room is comfortable, finely furnished, and perfectly tidy (with daily cleaning). Highly recommended.
