It felt like being a guest at someone's home, really... great attention was given to making us feel welcome from a kitchen well equipped to a basket of goodies (panettone, prosecco, etc) waiting for us. The house was very clean and we had ample space to spread our "stuff" around since the wardrobes were empty.
The house can be cold in winter but the extra electrical heaters and fireplaces will make you feel cozy.
Francesca is very attentive to her guests and was super responsive to our questions.
We had a great time at La Fortezza and it was winter time! Imagine summer there, next to the cute village of Polignano a Mare.
