Inside of Campania, moving along Tyrrhenian coast, we find the farm holidays building situated in Ceraso town, place Petrosa, 80 Km far from Salerno and at only 10 minutes (6 Km) from Casalvelino and Ascea seaside. If we move towards north we may arrive at Acciaroli, a small and very characteristic tourist resort, with a small harbour and medieval towers caressed by the sea softly, acknowledge often as blue flag. Going south we pass by the ruins of Velia, an old Eleatic city inhabited by Parmenide and find Palinuro, earth kissed by Ulysses. Here it is possible to see when the sky is particularly clear , also some fins of dolphins breaking the waves of sea. The geographic position of Petrosa is much appreciated because if one moves towards the interior, goes into National Park of Cilento, favourite destination by lovers of nature and animals.
