Authentic Apulian Villa – Jacuzzi, Orchard & Walk to Cisternino!

The photos of Angelita's home and the general information about the very charming and welcoming town of Cisternino do not do justice to this vacation rental! My husband and I and our two friends loved it! Overall, there is a serenity and a sense of place at Casa Cecca that is timeless. The high ceilings and cool tiled floors make it a perfect summertime outdoor/indoor space. The eat in kitchen is compact, yet workable, although a microwave would be a welcome addition to the stove top and toaster oven. There is only one washroom, but it is beautifully remodelled and has a luxurious rainhead shower. During the day and on fine evenings the long wooden table under a pergola in the backyard is perfect for apero and alfresco meals. There are plenty of chairs and loungers!The jacuzzi was not much in use as our mid to late September days were cooler and we were routinely touring all the notable white cities as well as nearby beach and historic towns. We travelled to Ostuni, Alborobella, Locotorondo, Bari, Porto Caesarea, Polignano a Mare, Monopoli, Lecce, and Matera. Phenomenal day trips, great food, and history lessons, galore! Staying in the area of those special structures, the Trulli, was a daily delight!Angelita was a very caring and responsive host, and always addressed any concerns or requests that we expressed. Overall, we had great Apulian wine and food experiences, met lovely locals, and enjoyed being a short uphill walk from our comfortable home to Cisternino.

This spot was perfect for our family for vacation. The villa is so sweet and has everything you need. The outside dining areas were lovely and the lights really made it magical at night. We loved walking into town for dinners and after-dinner gelatos! Such a cute area and so much to see and do withinan hour or two drive. Thank you for a wonderful time and thank you for welcoming us into your home!

This was the place we were looking for. Charming and rustic country home. We gathered food at the local butcher and bakery and dined in the garden each night. Close to the historic Valle de itria villages. And we loved spending time in Cisternino for a real feel of an Italian village. Angela and her family are lovely and attentive and

We loved our stay at Angelita's place. It was a great getaway with a regional feel yet still close to everything you'd want from your holiday in a small town in Puglia. Cisternino is amazing in our view and definitely worth a stay!

We loved staying in this beautiful villa in Cisternino. Angelita, the host, was super friendly, giving us loads of helpful advice on what to do and see in the area. We also had an amazing cooking lesson in our villa, I would definitely recommend it!

Excellent location both with regard to the local surrounding and the wider Puglia-area with relatively short driving distances to places of interest. The owner/hostess was extremely helpful to fulfill our small wishes during our stay. Also active in recommending restaurants and places to see and visit. The wifi network worked well both inside and outside the villa. The garden area is large and could do well with a thorough cleaning now that the leaves are falling off the treas.

This property was perfect in ever way. Our host was extremely helpful with suggestions for restaurants and tours. We highly recommend this place and we would definitely cone back.

Strategic position for the centre of the country and for the beautiful beaches and/or enchanting neighboring towns. Very welcoming house, well maintained, equipped with all possibile comforts, large veranda in which enjoy the garden and a relaxing Jacuzzi. Welcome and courtesy of the host, friendliness and unique hospitality:welcomed with homemade desserts, fresh fruits, cheese tastings and drinks, guided in a suggestive oil tasting and greeted with excellent homemade almonds. Absolutely highly recommended!

Angelita is very kindfull with her guests, the house is well equiped and places close to the center of Cisternino. Special thank you for the visit of the oil factory.

Thanks for a wonderful stay we loved it.
