We had two wonderful weeks. The house is very big, well equipped and even has a roof terrace to enjoy in the evening overlooking the countryside and the sea (little distant). It's very quiet and has a garden with some vegetables and fruits.
The house is located in a small town, roughly a ten minute drive away from Otranto. Otranto itself is great, a lively and picturesque town, also buzzing outside the main season, when many other places at the coast are deserted.
A range of good restaurants is nearby in the town, and there are plenty more in Otranto. Some great beaches and snorkeling spots are not far, and there is many historic places to visit just as well.
Sara's parents took care of us upon arrival and recommended a couple of good restaurant and things to see.
A truly enjoyable two weeks.
