Donato's place is beautiful and our young family (ages 3 & 6) had a great stay. It's rural location means that's it is very quiet and there are no neighbours to be annoyed by loud children but it's very safe, with a fully enclosed and secure garden with remote controlled access. It is also very close to main routes meaning visits to Lecce, Alberobello, Brindisi, Ostuni, Monopoli, Fasano (the Zoosafari is a must, it was amazing!) San Vito de Norman and other places is really easy, and only 5 mins drive to a beach and supermarket in Carovigno. A hire car is a must. The villa itself is perfect with 3 double bedrooms, everything you need to cook with, lots of lovely little touches. There are 3 air conditioning units that heat as well as cool. The outside space is beautifully maintained with lots of space for children to run around and several places to seat/dine. The pool was too cold for us in April but looked very inviting and was very clean. Our greeting on arrival was lovely, with wine, fruit, foccaccia and sweet treats, a lovely welcoming touch. We have nothing bad to say about this villa or our hosts, we highly recommend a stay here.
