About this villa rental
Perched atop its own private hill, this stunning three-bedroom villa is surrounded by rolling grain fields and offers breathtaking 360-degree views of the Lucanian countryside. At the center of the property is a magnificent heated infinity pool, where you can relax while taking in sweeping vistas and unforgettable sunsets each evening.
The villa is thoughtfully designed on a single level, with spacious, well-proportioned rooms featuring marble floors, soaring vaulted ceilings in warm Pugliese yellow stone, and elegant French doors that open directly onto the pool deck, shaded stone loggias, and expansive terraces. In 2025, brand-new split-system air conditioning units were installed in every bedroom and the main living space, ensuring strong and effective cooling throughout the villa. Indoor and outdoor living blend seamlessly, creating the perfect setting for relaxing, dining, and entertaining.
The bathrooms feature Philippe Starck and Grohe fittings with large walk-in showers, while the chef’s kitchen is equipped with custom LadyCucine cabinetry and Siemens appliances, ideal for preparing meals with fresh local ingredients.
Despite its peaceful countryside setting, the villa is perfectly located for exploring the region. The historic center of Matera, a UNESCO World Heritage Site famous for its ancient cave dwellings, exceptional restaurants, and boutique hotels, is just 14 km away. Spend your days wandering through the Sassi, dining in Michelin-rated restaurants or traditional trattorias carved into the stone.
Within a 30-minute drive you can reach the beautiful sandy beaches of the Ionian Sea, while many of Puglia’s most charming towns — including Alberobello, Ostuni, and Monopoli — are all within about an hour’s drive. Bari International Airport is also conveniently located less than an hour away.
Whether you're enjoying sunset by the pool, exploring the historic villages of Basilicata and Puglia, or simply soaking in the tranquility of the countryside, this villa offers an unforgettable Southern Italy escape.

The villa was beautiful and exactly as the images. The aircon was brilliant and we have plenty of space as a family of 4. We spent most of our time around the pool or cooking on the BBQ. Matera was lovely to visit and only around 15 minutes by car. Most of the restaurants didn't open until around 7:30 or 8pm which was a shock for us when we got there at 5:30 with young children looking for somewhere to eat. That was fine though once we realised. Ristorante Pizzeria Matera in the old part of Matera right on the square was lovely and did really good priced (and very big!) pizzas for less than 10 euros - which our children said were the best Pizzas they'd ever had!

We were a family of 5 and had the most incredible stay at this hilltop villa! The 360 views of the countryside are breathtaking, and the infinity pool is absolutely perfect for relaxing at sunset. The villa itself is spotless, stylish, and very comfortable, with everything we needed for a relaxing stay.It feels private and peaceful, yet it’s only a short drive to Matera’s historic Sassi district. Our host was welcoming and helpful, making the whole experience effortless. We didn’t want to leave—highly recommended!”We are coming back next year.
