Location & what to see

Residenza Baffra is located along Corso Cavour, in the heart of Gaeta’s historic centre, just steps from the venues that liven up summer evenings. Corso Cavour is one of the main streets of the old town, lined with shops and cafés that stay open until late in the evening, especially in the summer months, among pizzerias and historic pastry shops such as Pasticceria Lanzetta, just 150 metres from the property.

The sea is within easy reach: Serapo Beach is about 450 metres away, while the Serapo Garden can be reached in under 10 minutes on foot. The Monte Orlando Regional Urban Park is about 950 metres away, the Sanctuary of the Montagna Spaccata is 1.6 km away, and the Port of Formia is 7.9 km away. Those travelling by train can rely on Formia Railway Station, about 6 km away, while Naples Capodichino Airport is about 70 km away, also connected via the transfer service offered by the property. The centre of Formia, with road connections to Rome and Naples, is also reachable in about twenty minutes by car.

In summer the area is ideal for long days at the beach and evening strolls through the alleys of the medieval town, with the possibility of excursions to the Temple of Jupiter Anxur in Terracina, about 35 km further south. Cycling enthusiasts will find several coastal routes suitable for all levels, while those who prefer fishing can organise trips along the Tyrrhenian coastline. In the cooler months, the area is well explored on foot thanks to the trails of Monte Orlando and the historic ruins scattered along the coast, such as the Villa of Tiberius and the Gianola and Monte di Scauri Park, both reachable in just a few minutes by car.
