We loved Puglia, the beaches and towns, each with their own special character. Pietro’s place is centrally located for visiting these, 15 mins drive from Locorotondo, in a quiet location up a track from a minor road. Pietro greeted us personally on arrival and kindly guided us to the local supermarket. He responded promptly to problems during our stay.
We were a family group of 9, ranging in age from 2 to 69 years visiting in late October. With such a large group one shower sometimes seemed insufficient! The lounge area comfortably seats only 5 but I imagine that summer guests would be mainly outside in the evenings on the extensive courtyard seating area under the shade of trees, where there is also an outside shower. As described in the listing, there are 6 beds are on the ground floor and the upstairs bedroom is reached up a steep staircase which also gives access to the outside roof area. However, there is no door at the top of the stairs to the bedroom and the roof parapet is not high enough for this area to be safe for small children. On arrival we were asked to pay a security deposit of Euro 300 and to take our recycling to the waste centre 8 mins drive away on departure.
