We ( family of 5 kids 1, 2 and 11) had a wonderful time at Angela's house. It is not simply a house it is a home, beautifully furnished and comfortable. The kids really enjoyed the garden and we had nice walks around the neighboring olive orchards.
Angela and her husband were outstanding hosts. She greeted us in Castellana Grotte and guided us to the house which is about 5 km from the town centre, surrounded by olive trees.
They have given us invaluable tips for sights in the vicinity (there are many-many places worth a visit within half an hour drive from the house (seaside, caves, markets, trullies etc..) they also reccommended us some places for dining out and they were spot on. The local restaurant- De Matteo's was excellent. Try it if you have a chance, you can hand pick your own steak from the counter which they prepare to your taste straight away.
The house was great. Immaculately clean with comfortable double bed in the main room and to single beds in the two smaller rooms and Angela has also set up a cot for our baby before our arrival. The kitchen had all the utensils you might need for cooking and eating in.
The spacious patio has very nice views of the countryside and enough room for big family to sit down around the dining table.

We would definitely stay here again. I hope we can come back soon and spend a longer holiday in the area.

Thank you Angela!
