A Wonderful Countryside Retreat!
Absolutely gorgeous place! We were delayed getting into Bari and collecting car etc., but had no trouble whatsoever finding the place on Google Maps. The gated driveway and entrance is very impressive, even very late at night! We didn't arrive until around 23:30 and had no problem getting a couple drinks in before bed that night!
It has a very boutique feel about it, though is extremely spacious, with beautiful surroundings and very well equipped accommodations. We had a 2 bed house and a 1 bed house, both had great amenities, including and iron and board (I did enquire prior and was advised no iron, so bought my travel one, but was pleased to see one there in each accommodation!). Outdoor seating and sun loungers were provided in our 2 bed property.
Location is great to base yourself when visiting beautiful Puglia, and we also had a meal and drinks at the stunning 5 star Borgo Egnazia - literally a 5 min drive away - what a place that is!!!
My only gripe is the cost to use the spa facilities - €40. Bit steep really and should be included in the price of the room. Understand that a booking might need to be made but to charge for this is unusual in my opinion. If this was an included benefit, I am sure more guests might book treatments. By charging to use the sauna etc., it keeps some guests away so they wouldn't even see these facilties or considering booking a massage maybe? Anyway, did not detract from a wonderful stay, albeit short!
