Villa Ciottolo is an absolute stunning place to stay! Walking into this centuries old renovated villa will take your breath away. The photos of the inside do not compare to what awaits you when you arrive. Part Trullo, it brings the authenticity of a time this region is so well known for. Surrounded by acres of olive trees you feel you are in the middle of nowhere. However, the closest town for everything you need is only 8mins away. Plus all the wonderful towns you have read about in the area are less than a hours drive. Including the beach.
The team at Villa Finder helped organise an unforgettable week in Puglia. A private chef was arranged for my birthday celebration as well as a cooking course with the same chef.
Shout out to Pia and Mattia for an incredible tasting lunch and fun class. The food was outstanding!
If you are looking to spend some time in this area with friends and family, do yourself a favour you will remember the rest of your life - stay here.
Oh and the pool? That is as good as the photos. 😉
