B&B Cirelli is located in Scalea, a popular town situated on the picturesque Tyrrenic coast in the province of Cosenza. Scalea boasts a rich history. The Centro Storico, the historic centre of the town, is situated on a hill that spirals upwards to allow for breathtaking views from its hillside piazzas. The Greeks and Romans colonized this area and for this reason there are many monuments such as the “Palazzo Spinelli”, home of the Prince Spinelli. Another important local monument is the “Torre Della Scalicella” or “Torre Di Giuda”. This was built to defend Scalea from invading enemy attack. What is particularly fascinating is the cylindrical shape of the building. Inside the tower there is an archaeological museum which houses rare artifacts that have been found in the area. The natural environment in Scalea and the surrounding areas is stunning and unspoiled. The sea is crystal clear and is home to a rich and diverse sea life. Turn your back to the sea and you are presented by the dramatic panorama of the mountains. Between “mare e montagna” vegetation abounds – palm, cypress, fig and lemon trees, cacti and the cedro.
