My husband and I finished a Backroads cycling trip in Puglia so wanted to relax. Maria and Mario (the caretakers) were amazing! They made us feel so welcome and secure. Unfortunately, our Italian is very poor but we were still able to communicate. We were in their country so we need to get better. Pool was chilly but felt amazing after a hot run. We slept in only one bed but a little stiff for our tastes. Granted, we would take our tempurpedic with us if we could. Local recommendations were outstanding. It was such an authentic experience. We would go again.
