Thank you for your welcome."

"The B&B is very quaint and well-equipped. It's located in a historic square in the center of town, just a few blocks from the beautiful Castle. A short walk away is a historic café (Caffè Centrale) where you can enjoy an excellent breakfast and chat with the friendly and welcoming locals of Venosa. The B&B owner is equally kind, welcoming, and helpful.
Recommended for everyone."
