Our breakfast
Traditional Lucanian Breakfast with a View of Matera Sassi
Staying at La Cava nel Barisano Suite means experiencing the authentic atmosphere of the Sassi of Matera, while enjoying the comfort and privacy of a private home.
For this reason, we have created a special breakfast experience in Matera designed to give you complete freedom: inside the suite you will find everything you need to start your day at your own pace, choosing the perfect moment for your breakfast while enjoying sweet and savoury flavours inspired by the Lucanian tradition.
The highlight of our breakfast is the homemade ciambella cake, prepared following traditional recipes passed down through generations.
For guests who want to discover the authentic flavours of the area, we offer a taste of local tradition with the famous Matera IGP Bread, a symbol of Lucanian cuisine. It can be enjoyed as a traditional crispy bruschetta with fresh tomatoes, just like the ancient farming tradition of Basilicata.
Breakfast on the Panoramic Terrace of Matera Sassi
The true added value of our breakfast is freedom.
There are no fixed breakfast times: you can prepare your own tray and enjoy it comfortably on the suite’s panoramic terrace, surrounded by the breathtaking view of the Sassi of Matera.
It will be your private moment of relaxation, surrounded by the silence of the ancient city, the morning light over the Murgia Materana, and the unique atmosphere of a place with thousands of years of history.
A simple, authentic and private breakfast, created to make your stay in Matera even more special.
Winter Season Notice (January – March)
During the low season, from January to March, the house follows a quieter rhythm.
During this period, the breakfast selection may not include some fresh seasonal products such as homemade ciambella, Matera IGP Bread, fresh tomatoes, the welcome bottle of wine or other refrigerated perishable products.
Guests will still find a selection of packaged breakfast items and essential products to start the day pleasantly and comfortably inside their suite in the Sassi of Matera.
