Torre Bruno

Die Anfahrt zu dem Anwesen ist abentteuerlich. Das Haus ist traumhaft saniert und bietet einen guten Einblick wie es früher ausgesehen haben muss. Die Gastgeber sind freundlich und gesprächig und bieten eine hervorragende lokale einfache Küche zu einem fairem Preis. Das Frühstück ist mehr als reichhaltig und bietet kaum noch Platz für mehr auf dem Tisch.

Nous avons été très bien accueillis dans une magnifique propriété cernée par de grands champs d’oliviers , à l’écart de la foule et du bruit. Excellente cuisine maison !

L'agriturismo Torre Bruno ha restituito nuova vita a una delle torri di guardia costruite nei secoli passati a difesa del nostro paese. La Torre, grazie alle cure della famiglia Bruno, a Carpino nel cuore del Gargano offre ai viaggiatori tutti i confort che rendono indimenticabile un soggiorno. Donna Lucia, forte e generosa padrona di casa, grazie alle pietanze che prepara con grande cura e attenzione, offre agli ospiti l'opportunità di conoscere i saperi e gustare i sapori dei piatti della tradizione gastronomica della terra dei Dauni.

Notte trascorsa in questo luogo caratteristico ristrutturato recentemente. Abbiamo trovato pulizia e cordialità e una bellissima e spaziosa camera ben arredata. Anche la cena e’ stata ottima. In più abbiamo acquista l’ottimo olio prodotto dai proprietari

1. We arrived shortly before 3.00pm. the notified checking in time. Despite entering the building and also sounding the car horn it was not until 3.30 when a lady appeared which was after we’d phoned through and spoken to her son who let her know we’d arrived. There was no contact bell on the reception desk. 2. We parked in a gravel area behind the building, full of weeds, totally unkempt with just one battered car. There was no attraction in the garden with any attempt at plants or flowers. 3. The only sign of life, two cats with very evident advanced stages of mange and two dogs who were in serious need of grooming. 4. Finally into the property to find one of the steepest stone staircases (the height of the risers being about 50% greater than normal), no prior notice on the *********** website 5. Outside at the front of the property a small lawn with four tables, no umbrellas or sun shields. We had prebooked dinner, could we eat outside? No, the cats jump on the tables 6. My wife has been suffering from a chest infection and not eating. Today, we were charged €20 for the 4 squares of ravioli that she was served (at the lady’s insistence she suggested she tried to eat but I ended up having them myself). 7. In the room there were no glasses of any sort, glass, cardboard or plastic. The bathroom as basic as could be with minimum-sized plastic shower cubicle; there was no plug in the basin (just a gaping hole – don’t drop anything down into it!). 8. Shutters that have seen better days seemingly impossible to close so we had to call the owner who closed them for us 9. And then finally from this so called ‘wonder chef’ Breakfast consisted of a croissant, small piece of cake, two pre-wrapped butter pats and two tiny jars of jam, plastic portioned spreads. Any meat, cheese or eggs totally missing. Commercial fruit juice in a small bottle. A selection of fruit.

Hostess Lucia was very accommodating and attentive. We had relatives nearby who dropped by and Lucia welcomed them in making everyone feel at home. She surprised us with home baking that was delicious! Also served a great breakfast.
