The Antica Dimora del Gruccione is an "albergo diffuso," consisting of a main mansion and several other buildings in the neighbourhood. Single rooms, double rooms, and triple rooms (with an open fireplace) are available. Also suites with an open fireplace, kitchen or kitchenette, TV, phone, and Internet Hot Spot, offer a cosy place to stay and relax. The chef only use the highest quality products from the Montiferru area, including a choice of  best products from the wider region (those labeled DOP/DOCG), and also change the several course dishes he prepares daily. On demand, a vegetarian menu can be arranged, which is otherwise hard to find anywhere else on the island. The main touch is a traditional Sardinian cuisine, based on the Slow Food concept. Slow Food, dedicated to the preservation of cooking with high-class local products, was originally an Italian non-profit-society, and is now world-wide. The hotel uses items labelled as  "presidi" according to the standards of Slow Food, such as the cow-cheese "Casizolu" and the meat of the "Bue Rosso" (beef cattle). Montiferru is one of the places named "degustazione" for this new breed of beef. You will also taste other excellent products of the region, such as the Pecorino cheese of Osilo, the "Fiore sardo" cheese of Gavoi, the extra vergine oil of Seneghe, the "Pompia", a special fruit of Siniscola, the rosemary honey of Sennariolo among many examples.

Das Hotel Antica Dimora del Gruccione zählt zur landestypischen Hotelkategorie "albergo diffuso" und befindet sich daher in einem historischen Ortskern, bietet gleichwertig ausgestattete Unterkünfte in restaurierten, beieinander liegenden Gebäuden (1 Haupthaus, 1 Nebenhaus) und ermöglicht allen Gästen die Hotelversorgung stets im Restaurant des Haupthauses. So wie es diese neuartige Hotelkategorie vorsieht, können manche Räumlichkeiten des Hotels entweder als traditionelle Hotelzimmer gebucht werden oder auch als völlig eigenständige Ferienwohnung mit Möglichkeiten zur Selbstversorgung.Dank seiner orangefarben getünchten Außenfassade ist dieses Hotel, ein ehemaliges, spanisches Patrizier-Haus, schon von weitem zu erkennen. Eine schmale Einbahnstraße führt direkt am Haus vorbei, wo ein imposantes, dunkelbraunes Eingangstor als Eichenholz den Zugang zu einem vorgelagerten Innenhof ermöglicht. Dieser ist mit originalem Kopfsteinplaster belegt, wird von einem intensiv grünen Kaki-Baum und Passionsblumen verziert und bietet den Gästen außerdem einen überdachten Laubengang mit zahlreichen Sitzgelegenheiten. Von hier gelangt man linkerhand in die Ferienwohnung / Suite "Limone". (Euros) Daily Rates On Request   Beantragen Su Richiesta "B&B Antica dimora del Gruccione", Santulussurgiu (OR) Italy.
