If you are looking for the perfect zen location, this is it. We had a great time, and this year’s aim of the holiday was really ‘stop, reset’. Living outdoors on the patio, enjoying Puglian food (great herbs, fruit, nuts in the garden!), feeling the sea breeze through your hair: ideal set-up to forget your fast-life Belgian routine. Wim and Stefania - who is your local contact - are very fast in responding, and very friendly. The villages nearby are cozy, the sea side is calm and the people we met, were all very nice. We visited a few restaurants and places Wim recommended: they were lovely. Polignano a Mare is beautiful. Lecce has good vibes. Ceglie had the best meat ever. We also took a cooking class, booked with Airbnb, which was great. Puglia is charming!
