Il Rifugio del Contadino Country House is a country-style stay in the Bosco di San Giovanni a Piro area, on Loc. Cavaliere near San Giovanni a Piro, in the Sapri region of Italy. The setting is rural and calming, with a terrace and garden that make it easy to slow down between outings, whether you’re planning coastal drives or countryside walks. A free breakfast helps you start the day without rushing, and free WiFi is available for checking maps and messaging from the property.

Guest feedback is modest but positive, with an overall rating of 8.2/10 based on five reviews. Several travelers typically value the quiet, countryside atmosphere and the straightforward service, and pet-friendly policies are a clear plus for those traveling with animals.
