The best area to stay in San Chirico Nuovo is within the historic centre itself, particularly around the Piazza Roma and the main thoroughfare, Corso Umberto I.This area forms the heart of the village, characterised by its narrow, winding streets and traditional stone buildings. It's where you'll find the local shops, cafes, and the Chiesa Madre di San Chirico Martire, the village's main church. The pace of life here is unhurried, offering a genuine taste of Basilicata.Couples looking for a peaceful retreat will find this area particularly appealing. The evenings are quiet, superb for enjoying a leisurely dinner at a local trattoria or a stroll through the village. The charm of the historic centre provides a romantic backdrop for a relaxing holiday.For families, staying in or very close to the historic centre is also a good option. The central piazza provides an open space for children to play, and the village's compact size means everything is within easy reach.
