This was the first time in Puglia for our family (me, wife and three kids 15, 12 & 9). We drove from Brindisi late at night and though we found the general area of the villa, we couldn’t find it exactly. Here’s where the amazing hospitality of our hosts Franco and Claudia began. Four of the family came out to find us and guide us in. On entering our beautiful home for the week, we were treated to a feast, freshly prepared for us. This was typical of the kindness shown to us over the week, with special mention also for Luca, Valerio, Andrea and Marcelo who helped us have a wonderful time. The villa itself is immaculate, very modern and with a lovely pool. Watching the World Cup final on the poolside big screen was another treat. The villa is in quite a remote area, which suited us fine but a car is an absolute necessity. From the villa we visited many of the gorgeous local towns and beaches. We were all sad to leave but happy to have had such a great experience, which we would thoroughly recommend to others.
