A romantic house carved into the rock with breathtaking views

La Cava is a unique apartment, carved into the tuff yet offering a view of the picturesque valley surrounding Civita. It is a gateway to another time, where silence envelops romantic evenings, perfect for savoring every nuance of the sunsets that fade over the badlands. A perfect nest for two people seeking tranquility.
From the square, the stairs descend and wind their way into the heart of the hill upon which the village stands, leading to this quiet, private, and welcoming home. The twilight you’re immersed in, step by step, is illuminated by natural light streaming through the windows facing the hillside, into the living room and bedroom.
Here you feel like a guest from the past, surrounded by everything that makes a stay enjoyable: a kitchen, a coffee maker, a TV, a large shower, Wi-Fi…
The small balcony frames a view that changes with the light yet is always enchanting: in the evening, it’s the perfect spot to admire the sunset’s reflections across the valley; in the morning, it offers a view of the sun rising behind the hills.

Every day, breakfast—whether sweet or savory—awaits you at the San Donato bar and wine shop in the square: it’s our way of wishing you a wonderful day!


Civita is accessible only on foot, via a pedestrian bridge that climbs to the top of the tuff spur on which the village is perched. A charming network of narrow streets, buildings, tuff walls, and flower-filled balconies welcomes guests seeking a unique experience.
