First of all, we have to thank Livio and Mr. Nunzio for our wonderful stay in Puglia! Both have been very friendly hosts. Mr. Nunzio (who keeps an eye on the house when Livio is not there) was always there to help when we needed something - which did not have to be often, because what else would you need if you have seen that beautiful house? :)
The pictures speak for themselves, and in reality it is maybe even more impressive. Besides being a beautiful and very original place, the house is completely autonomous (solar panels on the roof, a well for the water, vegetable garden behind the house, fig trees, ...) which worked very well for us. The next (nice) town, Mesagne, is maybe a 15 minute drive from the house. There you have a beautiful ancient city center with many cafés and restaurants (and a little outside of course also supermarkets, gas stations and so on).
Both the Adriatic Sea and the Ionian Sea are not too far away, maybe a 20 to 30 minute drive (by car) and you get to see nice beaches, crystal clear water and beautiful coastlines.

We can definitely recommend this place and are looking forward to come back!
