Great country getaway

Away from the tourist attractions but close enough, this home was a tranquil retreat after a day visiting the local attractions. Francesco is a generous host and communication was excellent. Everything you need here and more. Bari and Lecce an hour away by train from nearby Ostuni.

Wonderful

This is a great place to stay. Plenty of room both inside and outside and, very comfortable. And, it has a wonderful outdoor shower! Only a 5 minute drive to the center of Ceglie and all the great restaurants. Yet, the property is secluded and is very quiet. Convenient road access to all the places we visited in Puglia, including the beach. The owners, Francesco and Luciana are wonderful. This is a place we plan to stay at when we return to Puglia.

Perfect stay in Ceglie.

My husband and I have just returned from a fantastic 2 week stay in Puglia. Francesco was a wonderful host. The home was in a great location; very centralized for visiting all the beautiful sites in Puglia. It is situated in an olive tree grove which lends itself to peace and quiet, yet it is only a few minutes drive from Ceglie, a beautiful hillside town with so much history as well as lots of great restaurants. The home was very clean and super comfortable. It is exactly as it appears in the pictures. I would highly recommend it for anyone looking for a stay in Puglia.

Das Haus und GrundstĂŒck war genau wie beschrieben. Es ist zwar nicht rollstuhlgerecht, aber durch vorhandene Rampen konnten die Stufen gut ĂŒberwunden werden. Innerhalb des Hauses war ausreichend Platz zum Bewegen mit dem Rollstuhl. Durch mobile Heizkörper konnte die abendlichen KĂŒhle im Wohnbereich und Bad vertrieben werden. Ansonsten schließen wir uns den Aussagen der voran gegangenen Rezensionen an. Die Erreichbarkeit und der Kontakt zu Francesco war außerordentlich gut. Er war sehr hilfsbereit.

Partiamo dall'inizio: - il Sig. Francesco si Ăš da subito dimostrato flessibile in fase di check-in e si Ăš prodigato per venire incontro alle nostre esigenze da milanesi imbruttiti. - la casa Ăš immersa nella quiete della campagna messapica in posizione strategica per delle ferie all'insegna del Relax, Cultura e tanto mare cristallino che circonda questo tratto salentino della nostra splendida Italia. - la casa internamente ci Ăš stata presentata pulita in ogni suo dove (a prova di moglie Imbruttita), arredata con svariati dettagli che denotano attenzione e buon gusto che ti fa sentire Ospite ...e non cliente in una anonima dimora temporanea. Il vasto spazio esterno, da noi sfruttato tantissimo, comprende: - vasto parcheggio - ampio tavolo per colazioni assolate e cene ventilate dal quieto e rigenerante vento salentino - barbecue in muratura - dondolo ed amache - canestro per sfide uno contro uno ...svago per padri e figli iper - ultima ma non ultima...bella ed ampia doccia esterna (con acqua calda) Insomma non manca nulla. Infine per onestĂ  intellettuale mi permetto di scrivere alcune migliorie, ribadisco migliorie (giĂ  evidenziate al Sig. Francesco in fase di check out), ventilatore troppo potente e rumoroso anche al minimo per un uso notturno (less is more), assenza dello stampo per i cubetti di ghiaccio e l'asse del bagno non all'altezza del contesto. Concludo sperando di poter quanto prima ritornare per le ferie in questa bella location. Grazie di tutto Dario Riva

Positionnement idĂ©al au cƓur des Pouilles

Emplacement idĂ©al pour visiter les Pouilles de par sa position centrale. Le logement est trĂšs calme et reposant, sans vis-Ă -vis ou proches voisins. Certes, nous avons eu chaud mais c'Ă©tait notre choix de nous y rendre fin juillet et dĂ©but aoĂ»t en pleine canicule. Si vous ne supportez pas la chaleur, optez pour la Scandinavie ;-) Fransesco est trĂšs disponible, attentionnĂ© et rĂ©actif pour rĂ©pondre aux diverses questions. La communication est aisĂ©e via Whatsapp. Attention vous ĂȘtes parfaitement situĂ© pour effectuer des visites mais un vĂ©hicule est absolument nĂ©cessaire!

Een prachtige villa

We verbleven in een mooie, verzorgde, kraaknette villa met alle comfort om ons verblijf zo aangenaam mogelijk te maken. De villa is heel rustig gelegen en toch op een boogscheut van het centrum van Ceglie Messapica. Ideaal om 's avonds een restaurantje bezoeken. Ook een goede uitvalsbasis om de vele mooie stadjes van Puglia te gaan bezoeken. Het contact met de eigenaar Francesco verliep ook heel vlot. Een héél behulpzaam en attent persoon.

Good location for Puglia with a friendly host

A comfortable and quiet villa, suitable for a family of four or just the two of you. A good-sized fridge freezer, hob (gas and electric) plus fan oven means that you can cook full meals if you so desire. There is a brick barbeque and pizza oven outside, but we didn't use them. There's a lot of outside space with good lighting for those warm evenings to sit and drink a glass of wine or two. This was our second visit, so Francesco (the host) must be doing something right. The villa is situated only 10-15 minutes from Ostuni with Ceglie Messapica only 5-10 minutes away - both were our main shopping towns. Although there is a bus service, I would recommend a car as I don't think it was very frequent. For visiting Puglia this is a good place to stay with all of the obvious tourist locations within 2 hours' drive and long sandy beaches about 30 minutes away. There is a screened, outside shower (with hot water) that is useful for washing off sand from the beach before you enter the villa. Many Puglia towns have an historic centre that is worth visiting, admittedly some are easier to drive into than others, but perseverance is the key. Grottaglie is great for pottery and if you visit Matera then be sure to visit Ginosa which is surrounded by a ravine filled with abandoned cave houses. A great comparison.

Super relaxtes Ferienhaus

Wir hatten sehr entspannte Tage in Francescos Haus. Es war alles da, was man braucht. Das Haus sehr gerĂ€umig und alles in sehr gutem Zustand. Zu zweit haben wir gar nicht alles genutzt (z.B. den Grill). Besonders fĂŒr Familien ist es sicher noch viel besser geeignet. Die Lage ist sehr gut als Ausgangspunkt fĂŒr AusflĂŒge fĂŒr die wunderschönen StĂ€dte und deren SehenswĂŒrdigkeiten im Valle d'Itria. Auch die nĂ€chstgelegene und nicht so bekannte Stadt Ceglie ist auf den zweiten Blick wunderschön.

Wunderschöne und ruhige Oase zwischen zwei Meeren

Wer die Ruhe in mitten der Natur sucht aber trotzdem nicht weit von vielen Ausflugszielen und dem Meer sein will ist hier genau richtig. Das Haus ist sehr gut eingerichtet und hat einen riesigen Garten mir verschiedensten BĂ€umen und Palmen. Sie können alle Mahlzeiten gemĂŒtlich draußen auf der Terrasse einnehmen. Wir durften auch die herzlichen Gastgeber Luciana und Francesco kennenlernen die wĂ€hrend unserem ganzen Aufenthalt immer fĂŒr uns erreichbar waren. Sie haben alles perfekt organisiert von der Anreise bis zur Abreise. Die Umgebung ist voller interessanter und wunderbarer Orte wie Ostuni, Ceglie Messapica, Martina Franca, Locorotondo, Alberobello... um nur ein paar wenige zu nennen die in der NĂ€he des Ferienhauses leicht mit einem Auto zu erreichen sind. Kurz zusammengefasst können wir das Ferienhaus von Luciana und Francesco nur wĂ€rmstens weiterempfehlen. Nochmals herzlich Dank das wir eure GĂ€ste sein durften und dadurch einen wunderbaren Urlaub erleben konnten. Mille Grazie - Vi speriamo per vedere di nuovo :-) Thomas Judith e Elias
