Friendly and kind owners. A perfect location.

We had a lovely time staying on the lemon farm. The terrace is a lovely place to spend your time with beautiful views over Minori and across the valley to Ravello. The apartment is set in a great location to walk down to town (Minori) with plenty of exercise climbing up the steps on the way back. Also a good base location to travel down the Amalfi Coast and a day trip to Pompeii. Ornella and her family were very accommodating and were always available to give advice and information when needed. We especially enjoyed trying the lemon juice and limencello that is produced on the farm. Overall we had a great, relaxing stay on the farm and we would happily recommend it to friends and family.

Ornella and her family were wonderful hosts and absolutely insistent on assisting us with our luggage up the steps. Minori is a lovely village and the lemon farm has a commanding view over it. The 500 steps up from town can get a bit onerous but there is a bus that means you can miss out the first 300. We hired a car from Naples airport but the coastal road around the Amalfi coast provides some challenges so we opted for public transport for most of our stay. The garden in front of the apartment is truly lovely with wonderful views, shaded loungers and a hammock under the lemon trees. We enjoyed the local restaurants and self catering in the apartment. The apartment is well appointed but a little bit damp with an open mezzanine upper bedroom which our 9 year old daughter used. We had a nice holiday and would recommend Pompeii by bus and train from Solerno (very cheap public transport compared to the UK) and Capri by boat from Minori. The local tourist information office gave us some very detailed advice - the best we've received anywhere. Overall, not the most relaxing holiday we've ever had but the steps meant we exercised every day which can't be a bad thing.

Very wonderful hosts. Make sure you can climb lots of stairs. We got there a bit late and hadn't eaten all day. My friend uses a cane, so it would have been quite an effort to go out and get food. Our hosts brought us pizzas (we purchased them). We were so grateful. One thing...they charge do use of hvac but did not let us know in advance.

The owners very were very helpful carrying our bags and helping us to find the property. There are very many steps to get anywhere on the Amalfi coast and access to this property is via 180 more so help was welcome. Home made lemon syrup was available from the owners farm and it made delicious drinks as well as great holiday gifts. Minori is a nice place with a ferry to all major ports. Good number of walks start close by.

How can you spend a peaceful and unique soujorn on the Amalfi coast, free of tourist hordes that swamp everything between Amalfi and Positano, with an apartment to yourself, a vista of the ocean, the coast line and of Ravello? The answer: The Agriturismo Il Campanile Salvatore Aceto. I spent a wonderful three weeks at The Agriturismo Il Campanile, enjoying the warm hospitality of Ornella and Salvatore Aceto and the charm and beauty of their terraced lemon groves above Minori, a tranquil charming town just minutes beyond the tourist crush of Amalfi. It was a time full of peace, quiet, amazing views, warm sun, cool breezes, kind and gracious hospitality, interesting fellow guests and a few challenges. An old farmhouse perched high in the terraced lemon groves has been completely renovated into two comfortable apartments with small kitchenettes and combo living/dining rooms. The lower apartment has a wide terrace with dining table, chairs, sun loungers and a gorgeous view of Minori, the coast and Amalfi in the distance. The upper apartment is similar but has a rooftop terrace that commands a superb view and is ideal for private sun bathing. Ornella and Salvatore were gracious, generous with their time and energy and always cheerful and helpful during my extended stay. Aside from renovating the old farm house, Ornella and Salvatore have also converted one of the terraces into a covered banquet and picnic area. They also have a playground area for guests with small children. It is worth remembering that "agriturismo" means a working farm with added accommodations for tourists. It does not mean a hotel, a B&B or an all inclusive resort. A certain amount of rusticity must always be expected. And you need to be realistic about your level of fitness. All tourism anywhere on the Amalfi coast involves some climbing of hills, of stairs, of roads and trails. There are 200 plus steps from the road to the apartments at Agriturismo Il Campanile. From the road you can either take the city run minibus into town or take the additional 450 some steps down from the road into town. You will have the reverse to come home for the day. Either the minibus, if it is running when you need it, or about 650 steps from town to the apartments. It can be done. Just be realistic. By the end of my stay I could say that it had been a unique and warmly memorable experience and that I was very glad I had selected Agriturismo Il Campanile for my time on the Amalfi Coast.

It's a lovely appartement, just big enough for feeling good. The garden with chair's and more is perfekt for relaxing. Whe allway's reeched Ornella by telefon very good. When wi arrived they picked us up and carried our bagages up the hill. It's a few step up, so you can enjoy the silence up there and you're on your own. The kitchen is a bit old, but everything worked and we cooked wonderful tomatosauce. Because down in the village you got really wonderful tasting tomatos and and and. So there are many way's for walk, up and down of corse. It's nice and you have a great view.

Frühling an der Amalfiküste 5 von 5 Das Ferienhäuschen liegt wunderbar in den Zitronenhainen, ist sauber und freundlich. Nach der ersten Wanderung treppauf und treppab sind auch die Stufen zum Häuschen keine Last mehr. Ornella und Salvatore waren sehr freundliche und hilfreiche Gastgeber. In der Vorsaison waren manche Orte noch angenehm ruhig. manche Sehenswürdigkeiten allerdings auch geschlossen. Die Touristenbüros in Minori und Amalfi informieren gut. Ein Ort zum Wiederkommen, einfach. weil man sich nicht satt sehen kann.

Landing at Napoli, we braved the Italian drivers and made it unscathed to Minori, a preety village by the sea. We wound our way up through the town to Ornella and Salvatore's lemon grove. Once we had recovered from the climb - there are a lot of steps - we could look out from the roof patio across the valley and down to the sea. Just stunning.The walk down to town is easy, and the Pizza, pasta and gelato you find when you get there fantastic, particularly at La Botte. The climb back up allows for over indulgence at dinner - there are a lot of steps, and then a lot more!The accommodation is quite basic - exactly as we expected from the description - but we simply used it as a base. The kitchen equipment could do with updating. Mind, there are too many places to go to spend long indoors, even if it is only up onto the roof.From the harbour, you can catch a boat to Capri, with wonderful views of the coast. Pretty chilly in early April, though, unless the sun is out.We had a wonderful stay, and would love to return one day.
