ospitalita — Pisticci · Basilicata
Amid the hills of Pisticci, in Basilicata, Tenuta San Tommaso stands on the Poggio della Contrada, where vineyards and olive groves set the rhythm of the Lucanian countryside. A farm stay that combines the quiet of the inland — a short distance from Matera — with the nearness of the Ionian coast, and a kitchen that speaks of the land.
From the window overlooking the Lucanian hills, the landscape stretches across vineyards and olive groves down to the plains of the Metapontino. The estate stands in Contrada Terranova, on the Poggio della Contrada: a farm stay born from a deep bond with the countryside of Pisticci, from the wish to slow down and rediscover direct contact with nature and the rural roots of Basilicata.
From the balcony facing the Ionian Sea, the coast is within sight and within reach: the estate also offers two apartments — Giglio and Ginepro — in Contrada Scannaturchi, eight hundred metres from the beaches of the Ionian coast. The Metapontino coastline runs for thirty-five kilometres through pine groves, Mediterranean scrub and sand dunes, a short distance from the hilly inland.
The room wakes to the morning light of Basilicata: two double rooms and three independent apartments with fully equipped kitchen, private bathroom and air conditioning welcome couples, families and groups. For younger guests, a six-hundred-square-metre playground set in greenery. In the evening, the restaurant tells the story of local cuisine with pizza, grilled specialities and live music; the estate also hosts weddings and private celebrations.
Tenuta San Tommaso is a stop worth the journey into the most authentic Basilicata: on the page you'll find availability, accommodation options and the calendar of summer events.
