The property is full of character, vaulted ceilings on the inside and a pretty garden with various seating areas. Patrizia is a marvel, her knowledge of the local area and desire to share it meant we filled our holiday time with great restaurants, swimming spots and town visits.

Relax in Puglia

From first booking, the host, Patrizia was very welcoming. She gave us a lot of details about the area and all there was to do, places to visit and restaurant suggestions. We were a group of 5 couples. All bedrooms are a good size with private bathrooms though we did have to allocate rooms based on ease of access. The pool and garden are delightful and the outdoor table is super for a big group. We had a lovely relaxing time staying at The Old Mill

Amazing Holiday!!

We had the absolute best week at the house in Surano! The house itself was perfect - beautifully designed, super comfortable for families and with an amazing set up with the kitchen and outdoor area right next to each other so the kids could play. Patrizia was so helpful all throughout the week as well - helping us with dinner reservations, babysitters and recommending the best beaches for each day. She really made us feel welcome and helped us to get the most out of visiting this incredible corner of Italy. We will definitely be back!!! One of the best holidays we have had for a long time! Thank you Patrizia!!

The most amazing house with such an authentic atmosphere.

We were not disappointed in any way. The well kept house offers everything we had hoped for. There was everything needed for a nice stay. The wonderful garden and the pool area was so tasteful and we just wanted to stay there all the time but we did find a couple of days to go on sight seeing in the exciting area. The very kind hosts Patrizia and her husband Roberto sincerely wanted the best for us and did everything beyond expectation to make our stay so memorable. We already want to go back .. thank you so much both of you .. all the best from a happy visiting family of 10 Danes.

Terrific Easter break

We were two families that rented Patrizia's lovely house. The house is well equipped and maintained, stylishly decorated and comfortable. Open log fire was lovely on the chilly evenings however the heating is good. Very good wifi. Lovely garden with good size pool, lots of chairs and loungers. Large dining table and charcoal Weber BBQ under the orange trees. Patrizia is the best host we have ever had. She speaks excellent English and gave us many recommendations for areas to visit and places to eat. She was very happy to make the bookings and provide links for the satnav too. She answers messages very quickly. She even brought us a cocktail shaker when we asked for one!! Thank you Patrizia. The little sports bar, which is 2 mins walk away, is great for a breakfast pastry and coffee and an evening beer to watch a football match. Very friendly owners and staff. We recommend this lovely old mill

Beautiful Villa in traditional Salento town

We have just returned from Puglia and are missing Surano already! This villa has everything. It’s location is ideal, the town felt authentic and it’s residents were welcoming and friendly. Surano offers a fantastic restaurant with an enchanting outside eating area, a pizzeria, a corner shop and a bar cafe where we recommend trying the delicious Pasticciotto, traditional pastries from Salento. Nothing is too far away and we were easily able to explore the contrasting rocky and sandy coasts and the charming towns in between. Patrizia went above and beyond in helping us enjoy our stay, giving us advice about places to visit, recommending and booking restaurants and even reserving umbrellas and sun beds at a glorious beach. She was always on hand through WhatsApp to answer our questions. We were 4 adults and 5 teenage children and the villa offered plenty of space for us all. The villa is thoroughly clean and well equipped and the much needed air conditioning ( we were there during a heatwave) was exceptionally effective. We would not hesitate to recommend this villa and relish the thought of returning.

Great space

Friends and I finally got to enjoy some post-pandemic travel and this villa didn’t disappoint. We enjoyed great outdoor space and spacious bedrooms so that we could each have plenty of privacy. We loved the rustic feel of the place and Patrizia was always responsive to our questions. While the villa is a short drive to many locations, the town itself is SUPER quiet with not a lot happening. Would recommend for those looking for a peaceful retreat.

Fantastic!!

We had a large family reunion with 6 adults and 7 kids for two weeks and we absolutely loved this house and location! The house is so special (and so old!), but you can see and feel all of the love Patrizia put into the house. The outside area is lovely and spacious. Staying in Surano is a bit like going back in time - the older generation sitting outside their houses chatting to everyone who walks by and everything is closed for two hours in the afternoon. We were lucky enough to be there when a festival was on. The locals embraced us and made us feel so welcome even though we could not speak any Italian and there was no English in the town (or area)! Luckily, Patrizia is like a personal travel agent and suggests places to go every day and makes reservations whenever needed. There is so much to do in Puglia and near Surano that we could have stayed for several more weeks. We had so many highlights, but taking a boat trip from Castro and strolling around Otranto (both Patrizia’s suggestions) were probably to two most memorable! We will be back!

Delightful villa in the heart of Salento

Beautiful property full of Puglian charm but with all modern amenities. Very spacious accommodation and gorgeous outdoor garden and pool in a quite little village. One comment from the kids - they would have liked the WiFi to extend to the bedrooms. Our host Patrizia was very welcoming and helpful, suggesting places to visit and eat. Convenient food store, pizza takeaway and sports bar all within walking distance. All in all a wonderful vacation and sad to leave.

Villan Àr vÀldigt vÀl planerad med fina gemensamma sociala ytor för större sÀllskap att umgÄs i, och samtligt har varje familj helt separata rum/lÀgenheter med badrum, som ett litet boutique-hotell.

Patricia Àr en vÀldigt hjÀlpsam och tillgÀnglig vÀrd med tips för allt bÄde i nÀromrÄdet och övriga Puglia, ex hjÀlpte hon till med bokning av en fantastisk bÄttur med snorkling och utforskning av grottor och en mysig middag hemma hos en kock i byn.

Wij verbleven hier met 6 volwassenen en 5 kinderen en hadden een heerlijke week. Het is een prachtig huis, in oude stijl, maar wel van alle gemakken voorzien. Complete keuken. Heerlijke tuin met veel schaduw. Lekker zwembad. Het huis ligt midden in een klein dorpje. Restaurant en kleine supermarkt op loopafstand. Zowel strand als grote steden zoals Lecce of Gallipoli op half uurtje afstand. Het huis is een echte aanrader!

Wonderful family meeting at the stunning Holy Spir

We spent a wonderful family vacation at the Mill. It’s a stunning villa, recently renovated, functional, with a great attention to detail and ideally designed spaces for the pleasure of sharing while preserving privacy and tranquility. Surano is a small town very pleasant and centrally located to explore the region of Salento, which has enchanted us for the beauty of the sea, hinterland and villages. Patrizia and Roberto welcomed us with great professionalism, communication has always been excellent and thanks to their advice our vacation was even more beautiful. An experience to recommend totally.

nice house in Surano / Puglia

A nice renovated house, suitable if you want to rent a house together with other families. Good kitchen and a nice patio with a dining area and pool. The pictures on the page correspond well with reality. Surano is a nice village with restaurants / grocery store within walking distance and is a good starting point for exploration of Puglia.

About the host

Hosted by Patrizia Carrone

Host profile image
My name is Patrizia, my roots are in this land I call magic, as my website. After 32 years of living abroad and then in Milan, I decided one day to come back here, among these wonderful people, simple and hospitable to relive the atmosphere of past times that I have always carried in my heart. A life surrounded by nature, the scent of orange blossoms and flavours, the taste of genuine food. A splendid sea at your doorstep. My partner follows me with much excitement. We bought a farm and other historic homes, we have restructured them and we like to make this land known to other travellers from all over the world by providing our home and show our guests the best tourist itineraries, cultural and gastronomic. This is our best and heartfelt mission.

Why they chose this property

I'm sure that people here could really relax, since the house is comfortable, charming, bright, rich of citrus and orange trees. Restored with all modern commodities but paying attention of maintaining all the original characteristics of the typical ancient houses of Salento, which is what people love to find here.

What makes this property unique

Open spaces, beautiful view of the countryside, yet in a convenient location in the old town with all the amenities at your fingertips. The locals are warm and simple, the country is simply fantastic with ancient and magnificent olive groves and the sea is just a few kilometres. It’s full of light and sun with the most beautiful shade that you might have: which is the natural tree shade.
