Description
"Casa L'Antico Ulivo" is a cozy establishment that provides independent entrances for each mini-apartment and a spacious, well-equipped garden featuring a table, chairs, sun loungers, a swing, a lounge area, a washbasin, a clothes drying rack, and a small fountain. Guests can enjoy a veranda and a terrace complete with seating and a table. Additionally, there is ample private parking available with unrestricted access during the night hours.

One of the mini-apartments, located on the first floor and easily accessible via a convenient external staircase, consists of a room with a double bed and a bunk bed. It is equipped with Wi-Fi, individually controlled air conditioning, a shoe rack, and a desk with a chair. It includes a bathroom with all modern conveniences, a washing machine, and a kitchen fitted with a refrigerator and cooking area. The terrace spans 40 square meters and is furnished with a lounge, sun loungers, a table, and chairs.

The other mini-apartment, situated on the ground floor, features an entrance with a kitchen that includes a cooking area and refrigerator. It comprises two double bedrooms, with the option to add an extra bed and a crib for children. All beds are furnished with Memory foam mattresses and pillows.

Each room comes with a private bathroom, Wi-Fi, individually adjustable air conditioning, a shoe rack, and a desk with a chair. The bathrooms are equipped with hairdryers, irons, towels, and other amenities. Additionally, each room is supplied with bed linens.

The property is located at the entrance of Iglesias, nestled within a centuries-old olive grove and surrounded by a large garden with typical Mediterranean scrub plants. This prime location allows guests to enjoy a rural atmosphere in the heart of the city.

Visitors can unwind in a natural and serene environment, away from urban chaos, while still taking advantage of the city’s amenities and the artistic and cultural wonders of historic Iglesias, which is just a few minutes away.

Iglesias is a charming medieval town with numerous ancient churches showcasing various architectural styles (Byzantine, Romanesque, Gothic, etc.) and is situated at the foot of Mount Marganai, renowned for its botanical garden and oak forests (holm and cork).

Another distinctive feature of Iglesias is its rich mining heritage, recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage site.

The city's main beach, Masua, is a true Mediterranean gem: its stunning bay with crystal-clear waters, the famous "Pan di Zucchero" rock formation standing 133 meters tall, and its spectacular cliffs combine with remnants of the local mining history, such as the archaeological site of "Porto Flavia," unique for its ingenuity and construction techniques.

The coast, with its steep rocky cliffs, also serves as a landmark for free-climbing enthusiasts.

The area is also rich in visitable natural caves and boasts an important archaeological heritage that reflects ancient civilizations (Nuragic, Phoenician, Punic, Roman).

The most significant events that the city of Iglesias offers to tourists include:
- Holy Week during Easter (religious);
- A living chess match (medieval);
- Crossbow Tournament on the first Saturday of August (medieval);
- Flag Festival on August 12 (medieval);
- Medieval Historical Parade on August 13 (medieval);
- Descent of the Candlesticks or Feast of Santa Maria di "Mezo Gosto" on August 15 (religious);
- L'Ottobrata Iglesiente in October (religious and traditional).

We returned from a recent stay with Maura and Gabriele. We still have in our eyes the wonders of this corner of Sardinia and the tranquility at L'Antico Ulivo where we had the opportunity to rest in a silence immersed in the B&B garden. The difference is made by the kind owners who pampered us and 'replaced' us with a generous breakfast:) Thanks again to Maura and Gabriele and their hospitality. We already know that this is just a see you soon! Antonella and Daniele.

Grazie Antonella e Daniele per le vostre considerazioni. Anche noi vi ringraziamo di cuore per averci dato l'occasione di godere della vostra gradevolissima compagnia. La vostra cortesia, simpatia e discrezione sono stati esemplari. Arrivederci a presto. Cordialità, Maura e Gabriele

We arrive in a spectacular olive grove just outside the noise of the village but close to a supermarket. We are welcomed by Maura and Gabriele with a big smile, something to drink, a map, some brochures for excursions, and lots of advice. In the following days, we also met their very nice daughter. The room has an independent entrance with a private outdoor part, covered by a canopy and equipped with a table with chairs and a clothesline. Internally furnished in a simple and tasteful way. TV, fridge, and air conditioning. The cleaning is done very well every day. The breakfast is impressive, a table full of everything, cakes made by Maura and coffee prepared by Gabriele, freshly picked figs, yogurt, cookies, brioches, jams, and much more. They also provided us with a beach umbrella and a barbecue. I must say that the discretion and availability of this wonderful family made our vacation truly special. Absolutely recommended!

A truly welcoming place, the rooms are spacious and equipped with every comfort, very clean and tastefully furnished. The outdoor space available to guests allows for moments of relaxation in the shade of the olive trees. The breakfast is truly remarkable and includes fresh fruit from their own production and homemade pastries. All this is blended with the kindness and attentions of Gabriele, the owner, who helped make our stay splendid.

The answer from the host:
Carissimi Giuseppe e Katia, grazie per essere stati nostri ospiti. È sempre un piacere ospitare persone come voi, corrette, gentili e simpatiche. Dalle vostre parole si deduce il vostro gradimento nell'avere soggiornare presso la nostra struttura: questo per noi è già abbastanza; se poi ci riservate anche queste positive considerazioni, tradotte in una bellissima recensione, come dire "non stiamo più nella pelle". Contraccambiamo i vostri affettuosi pensieri. A presto Gabriele e Maura.

Delightful structure, very clean and well located to visit, in addition to the city, the beautiful landscapes. The added value of this Bed and Breakfast is the patio with table, chairs and refrigerator, the private garden with sun loungers for relaxation or sunbathing, but above all the kindness, availability and cordiality of the managers.
