A huge thank you to Dario and especially his parents who were our hosts for the duration of our stay and made us feel so very welcome in their historic family farmhouse. A spacious, cool, stone built residence with panoramic views of the region's countryside from the side and rear aspects and rear balcony. A trained Chef, Pietro and his wife Donatella prepared dinner for us one evening sensational authentic Puglian cooking, served in the farmhouse courtyard under a canopy with scented garden flowers and a 700-year-old olive tree. Donatella's gorgeous creme patisserie Italian cake completed a truly marvellous evening. Daily Fresh Fruit from the garden, homemade preserves, yoghurt, olive oil - delivered to our door by Pietro, bowls of fresh figs, plums and tomatoes - we could not have been looked after better. Our sincerest thanks to you all from The Porters.
