Our first airbnb experience...and very good it was!
Thankyou Antonietta for you warm welcome to your lovely house. The house was perfect, exactly as described and basket of local goodies very welcome. The villa is situated away from other properties, quite rural by olive groves and vineyards, so completely private and very quiet. Beautifully designed, modern and elegant though possibly not too practical for young children. We loved the simple design and lack of clutter...unlike at home!!!!Your lovely manager Maria was very quick to respond to questions re the house and local facilities. Despite the weather we enjoyed the house it's good sized pool, and it's surrounds very much and would recommend this villa completely! Local towns very pretty, Cisternino for food shopping and an evening drink, Martina Franka for a more city feel, bigger shops and restaurants which we unfortunatly discovered too late to explore properly. Monopoli also a loverly old town as well as Ostuni of course. Recommend Restorante I Templeri, and Gaonas da Gianfranco both in Martina Franka for fantastic food, bit pricey but worth it.
All in all a lovely area to explore but not if your after cutting edge modern. It's very traditional Italian very friendly even to non Italian speaking Brits! We enjoyed it very much and hope to re-visit in the future.
And once again made so much nicer with the welcome from Antonietta and her crew. Thankyou!
