Fabio’s house was approx 20minutes from Gallipoli, it was secluded and quiet, the nearest shops are approx 10minute drive away. Good in the summer as you can sit outside, there is no indoor sofa so more difficult in the colder months when it’s raining to move inside. Unfortunately we had to leave early and Fabio and his dad we extremely helpful and accommodating! Important things to know: mosquitos are prevalent in southern Italy and even more in this rural setting so bring spray! Also the water from the taps cannot be drunk, so bring bottled water!
