1900 farm with swimming pool, yard, olive grove, fruit trees and views of the sea

I wish we could keep this place a secret as it was so wonderful. There was plenty of space for the family to separate and find quiet time. The house had everything you could want and the location is brilliant for exploring and getting to both sides of the coast. A magical time.

The host was so nice. The place is incredibly decorated and the setting was idyllic and peaceful! It was beautiful sitting out by the pool; however it was a little too cold in May to swim! It was nice having a washing machine and the wifi was great! We had the local finance police come by to verify that we had rented the property and how much we paid for it. They took photos of our ID, which was a little disconcerting, until we confirmed with the local police that they were legitimate. We really appreciated that the hosts came immediately and verified that it was all ok, as we don't speak Italian. Fantastic stay in a beautiful house we would highly recommend!!

We had a fantastic stay. The Villa is absolutely charming with beautiful outside areas and gardens. The kitchen area has a big fridge/freezer, microwave, oven, hob, coffee machines, juicer, dishwasher- everything needed. The bathrooms are beautiful and we loved the stone trough sinks! The showers worked well. We didn’t really spend anytime in the lounge area as the outside was too enticing but it was a nice cool area. The pool is lovely for a cool down and the barbecue area is fantastic for evening meals. There are plenty of outdoor tables and seats so you can always find a shady or sunny spot. It is located in a very quiet area only a short drive from small towns and villages with various cafes and restaurants. It is a 20 min walk to the village of Corsano with a delicious patisserie! It’s very close to sea - we walked a couple of times (up hill all the way back) or it’s a short drive. For us it was the perfect base for a very relaxed 2 weeks. The host family were very friendly and extremely helpful. We only had one very small issue with a light and it was solved immediately.

Beautiful Masseria with great Pool area and lovely garden. Very quiet yet close to sights and beaches. Although, the spare building material lying around the house/garden could be removed. Still, we've enjoyed ourselves a lot.
