Agriturismo Le Prunelle, among the olive groves of Cannalonga
Agriturismo Le Prunelle sits among the olive groves of Cannalonga, inland in Campania, with rooms and apartments that have a terrace or balcony, a garden and a bar serving local wines and produce. It suits calm, walking holidays and makes a base for day trips to the Amalfi Coast.

Where Le Prunelle is and how to get there
Agriturismo Le Prunelle is at Località Maddaloni, in Cannalonga, in the province of Salerno. We are in the Campania hinterland, among hills and olive groves, not by the sea.
The nearest airport listed is Salerno - Costa d'Amalfi, about 76 km away. I have no data on public transport, but in an area this rural I would plan on getting around by car, and that is my opinion, not confirmed information. Before setting off, put the address into your satnav and ask the property how to reach it.
What the rooms and apartments are like
Le Prunelle offers rooms and apartments, almost all with a private terrace or balcony. The furnishings are rustic in style, chosen with taste according to the description I have.
There is free wifi and flat-screen TVs. I have no other information on size, beds or bathrooms, so if you need an apartment for more people or a kitchen, ask before booking. The fact that there are apartments is a plus for families and for anyone staying several days.
Garden, bar and local flavours
Guests can relax in the garden and sip local wines and produce at the farm bar. It is the sort of place where, in my view, the evening is spent outdoors without having to go anywhere else.
- The garden. An open-air space to enjoy slowly among the olive trees.
- The bar. Wines and local produce, without leaving the property.
- The trails. Walking trips can be arranged on the paths through the surrounding hills.
What the reviews say
I have to be honest here. For Le Prunelle I have no reviews to summarise and no Google rating either, so I can't tell you what guests think about cleanliness, hospitality or the food.
That is not a flaw of the property, but it matters if you are booking. My advice is to read the most recent comments carefully on the booking page and write to the property to clear up any doubts you have.
What to know before booking
The main point is the location. The hinterland is beautiful if you want silence, but it is not convenient if you want the coast on your doorstep.
| Point in its favour | Worth bearing in mind |
|---|---|
| Private terrace or balcony | No reviews to check |
| Garden and bar with local produce | Isolated location, better to have a car |
| Walking trails nearby | The listed airport is about 76 km away |
| Rooms and apartments | No data on size or facilities beyond wifi and TV |
Who it suits and what to do nearby
I would choose Le Prunelle in Cannalonga if I wanted a quiet farm stay to walk from and to make day trips out of. The description mentions visits to the Amalfi Coast, so it could be a calmer base than the busier resorts on the coast.
I wouldn't recommend it to anyone who wants nightlife or who doesn't drive. If your trip continues south, Mapiola also has the B&B ZIA YAYA in Cersuta, the Hotel Theotokos in Viggiano, the B&B Le Gorgonie in Tortora Marina and the B&B L'angolo di campagna in Piano di Sorrento. Of these I can only give you the name and town, so for the rest, open their pages.
Passionate about travel and about the kind of places that turn a getaway into something unforgettable. I love writing about hotels, country houses and charming hideaways, helping every traveller find the perfect place to rest and feel at home.
