    We LOVED this apartment. It is so comfortable and spacious. Sleeping in a cave is so unique. I slept so well as it is dark and quiet. Having a washer and dryer on a trip is fantastic. Great shower. Warm apartment. Great location. Great price....

This is a special and welcoming place in the heart of the Sasso Barisano: it will seem like entering another time and you will enjoy the pleasure of living in a cave inhabited since ancient times. The house has a wonderful view of the church of S. Agostino and a glimpse of the wonderful Gravina. It is a solution suitable for couples, lone adventurers, business travelers but also a family. Guests will have access to all open and usable areas of the apartment. We apply the legislation concerning the tourist tax, collecting the tax on arrival together with the registration of the guests. It is necessary to consider an amount of 2 euros per person per day. Please note that check in is free until 4 pm. After that time, there will be an extra fee required once it will be sure that will be possible to check in after 4 pm.
I lived in Lagopesole for all my childhood, I live between Matera and Rome, I love to travel and sing. Now I travel the world with or without my job, I'm an architect and a musician!
The area of ​​the Sasso Barisano is limited traffic, to reach the "Piano" (Historic Center of Matera), you can take a nice walk, take the shuttle bus "Linea Sassi", you can be carried by a nice apecar or even jump on a bus red of sightseeing that crosses the Sassi, the Piano and also reaches the Belvedere on the Murgia.
