Renato and Mattia were perfect hosts, being friendly and informative both before and during our stay. Renato met us in Ceglie to show us the way to the villa and provided us with information about the area as well as showing us where to shop for food in Ceglie. Both Mattia and Renato were immediately available by phone if we needed anything. The house was clean and comfortable. The garden was much larger than we had anticipated and very private - we enjoyed sitting on the shady patio under the olive tree and the pool area was lovely with the panaromic views of the surrounding countryside. The shaded patio areas around the house were extensive and great for dining outside.
Ceglie is a lovely town with fewer tourists than the surrounding villages. It's a great base to travel to Alberobello, Ostuni, Martina Franca, the coast etc etc. We stayed for a week and thouroghly enjoyed our time there.
