Fabulous views, quiet, clean and comfortable although very rural location. We were here at the very end of the season so our room was pretty sparsely provided for when we arrive but Matteo is wonderful and will provide whatever you need when you ask.

The drive up is a little hairy but after a couple of trips up and back it was fine. Google says it is a mostly flat walk into town but it is very steep and walking back up the hill would be tough. Seating could be more comfortable there is only a wooden table and benches inside but you really want to be outside enjoying the beauty anyway!

We stayed at this hotel for 3 nights and could have spent much longer. The host was very frendly and he prepared/covered us a delicious brekfast every morning. We spent a lot of time in the evenings in the hotel yard, looking down at the valley and the village of Mattenata. The area was wonderfully peachful, roosters crowed and the cowbells chirped in the distance. And the hotel`s cats and dogs were there own entertaining gang. Lots of greetings and hugs for Emily the kitten, which I would love to take in my suitcase and take home 😊

Everything was great! The host was really understanding about my lateness and still welcomed me with a smile and two nice dogs! The room was really big, like a small apartment, with an amazing balcony with a view on the nearby city of Mattinata. It was amazing sitting in the silence and quiet of the night - pretty relaxing! The bed was great and really really comfortable! I wish I could have stayed longer! the host even bought plant milk and muesli to accommodate for my dietary requirements! Really really thoughtful and helpful. 5 Stars and more!

It was all great!

We spent fantastic two weeks at La Scapola and did not want to leave. We came to explore the Gargano orchids, the towns and the beautiful nature. The accommodation was really great. A spectacular view from the terrace, plenty of space for the two of us, safe car parking, lots of storing space, good wifi connection. Each morning Matteo prepared a lovely and tasteful breakfast from local products (many of his own) of bio quality, which we could eat under an old carob tree. Matteo is a very careful and host ready to help with everything. We also loved the companion of two dogs and several cats, who were very friendly especially at breakfast time. The Bed and Breakfast is located up on a steep hill, it takes some 5 min by car to get to the centre of Mattinata to eat in some of its restaurants or to do some shopping. It is a great starting point for making trips to the surroundings. Gargano is a beautiful part of Italy and it is definitely worth to visit. We only regreted the two weeks were over so quickly. Hope to come back again in the future.

Everything was absolutely OK.

A quiet island in a marvellous natural surrounding, the landscape and the quietness of the place are really special, the accodomation is absolutely comfortable and spatious, we had a whole apartment for us with a private terrace overlooking the hills and the sea. Absolutely faboulous. The host is extremely gentle and the breakfast is very generous and full with local products

nothing

Stunning location, with beautiful view of the landscape from the terrace. It felt like being in a film from the golden age of Hollywood! Host very helpful and friendly. Delicious and hearty breakfast, with local home-made products. We also loved the friendly dogs that came to say hello :) Overall, beautiful experience

Our stay was perfect, no complaints.

Nice quiet position well above town. Enjoyed breakfast in the shady garden. there was proper homemade marmalade etc and an omelette which was a nice surprise. friendly hosts who spoke good English. modern aircon/heater that worked well as weather was a bit cold in the evening. plenty of hot water in the shower.

bed was a little firm.

The place was amazing and Matteo did everything to make us feel comfortable. The breakfast felt like a buffet with a lot of delicious and local food. The balcony offers a splendid view to the mountains and to the sea. We loved the place, the little city, Mattinata which is less than 5 minutes from Matteo's place, and we felt like we were in our home. Our two dogs also loved it! We will definitely like to come back.

We loved our stat at B&B La Scapola!! Thank you Matteo and the family for making us feel so welcome! We are missing milli abs sky already 🤗 the room was so big, the view was incredible and the breakfast was superb!!! Thank you so very much!!!

Nothing!! The service was so welcoming and they served the best breakfast ever!!!!

La Scapola B&B is a hidden gem. Only 5 minutes from Matinatta, the B&B is located up high on the hillside with a wonderful view of the valley and sea below. The rooms were very clean, comfortable, and charming. The landscaping is gorgeous. We loved the balcony from our rooms, to hang out in the early evening. Matteo was so welcoming and helpful! His breakfasts were excellent, outside on one of the many balconies under a 400 year-old Carob tree. He made us omelettes from his chickens and in the evening, shared his home-made limoncello with us. Because it is a small town, Matteo knows everyone: we wanted to take a guided hike to see the famous orchids, and he connected us with a local tour led by the botanists who literally wrote the book on orchids of Gargano! We were thrilled. We would absolutely stay here again; we wish we stayed longer! It was easy to tour the Gargano area by car, while based out of La Scapola. This place is a “10”. We spent 7 days in Gargano and this was our favorite place.
