Wonderful Stay

Louisa is a fantastic and experienced host renting a beautiful Puglia-Style, agritourismo influenced stone-cottage. We had a wonderful and calm stay. From the private rooftop you can oversee the coastline, take a book and relax. The house is located so that you can easily reach it by car but feel great privacy as there are no direct neighbours or roads that make noise. Overall, we can only recommend this beautiful property for a relaxing and romantic stay in Puglia!

Our dream vacation in Puglia

This adorable Trullo was amazing and perfect for us. A slice of country by the sea side, with a flair of Puglia style. Central to some of the best towns to visit in Puglia, whether it be by the sea or country side. Louisa is an amazing host and the details she includes in your stay are amazing. You have a starter for breakfast, lunch and vino all included. Our stay was over the top and would highly recommend to a couple wanting a peaceful, garden stay in Puglia.

Wonderful place to releax

Luisa is an excellent hostess and a wonderful lady. The holiday home is small, but it offers everything you need. The large garden, the great roof terrace with a view of the sea, the 5m pool, the outdoor dining area with grill and many other things make for a great holiday. The holiday home is ideally located for traveling around Puglia (and only 5 minutes by car to the sea). We had two wonderful weeks and thank Luisa for her hospitality, her helpfulness and her discreet manner. We will certainly have positive memories of this holiday for a long time to come.

A perfect getaway

It's a small apartment on a sprawling property - the apartment itself is lovely but the real reason to love the place is the outside. Lots of nooks and crannies to get some sun, take a nap, cool off (the pool and the outdoor shower). I only realized when I came back to Rome for a couple of days how much Louisa's place had let me disconnect and relax. It was everything I was hoping for in a rural Italian getaway.

What a wonderful place! A slightly quirky perfectly resourced trulli. everything you could need. Set in olive groves, fruit trees and vine yards, off the beaten track so peaceful. The pool is wonderful a great place to cool off and relax set in the splendid gardens. Great location for transport links set between two towns to access shopping and eating out. We will be back its a great tonic!

An oasis of tranquility

We had a wonderful stay at Bella Terra. Louisa is an amazing host, there is you need her but never intrusive. The inside accommodation is compact but comfortable and has everything you need. Outside is just amazing with so many places to sit and enjoy the beautiful garden. It was great to have the pool to cool off. This is a good location for getting around - the train station just 5 mins drive away with frequent services to Lecce and Bari. Good road links too. Our only complaint is that the time went so quickly!

A wonderful stay

Our stay in Carovigno at Louisa's trullo was lovely. The outdoor space is just amazing - flowers everywhere, the trees and too many space to choose from for relaxing. We enjoyed the sunset from the roofdeck, cooled off in the pool, and ate every meal outside. Louisa is a wonderful host. Her gift of a bottle of wine, her dried figs and jam, and all of the breakfast and snack provisions, was much appreciated. She thought of everything, including beach towels, chairs and umbrella and mosquito coils. We loved our stay in Puglia and Louisa and her home were so much a part of our enjoyment there.

Lovely September break

We had a lovely stay at Louisa's place. She had stocked up with food and drinks before our arrival, and supplied all towels, cleaning equipment and everything else you could need. The garden was a lovely oasis, with plenty of areas to relax with a cool drink and read a book, or just doze after a day at the beach! Nearby, Carovigno had a great choice of restaurants and a good supermarket. Great attractions like Ostuni and Alborobello were easy to reach by car and it's just a couple of minutes to the train station, for an easy trip to Lecce. Louisa was helpful in all respects, even when we arrived really late at night due a diverted flight. We really enjoyed our time here and happily recommend it!

Relaxing self catering accommodation

We had a truly relaxing time in the trullo. Louisa had thought of everything to make the stay memorable. The welcome pack was very generous and the well stocked kitchen made things very easy for self catering. The garden was magnificent and the available fruits from the trees delicious. We had figs and plums every day. The only downside was the low ceiling at the top of the stairs leading into the bedroom.....bit of a "pain" for anyone tall ! Car essential to get to the accommodation and for visiting the area.

A special place to relax and enjoy everything wonderful in Puglia!

A beautiful Trullo in a splendid garden in the peaceful countryside. The house was spotless and everything we needed was provided. It was exactly as described in the advertising and Louisa our host was extremely friendly and helpful with anything we needed. The location is perfect for day trips to special places of interest like Lecce, Alberobello and many others. The house and garden are great to come home to after a day touring or at the beach. We also spent a couple of days just lounging around in the shade in the garden. It was a perfect holiday. We highly recommend Louisa’s house for a holiday in Puglia.

Care and independence in wonderful location

Louisa has a beautiful property and wonderful way of caring for you but not getting in your way. We loved our stay in her spring garden and well-appointed apartment. Louisa came to the local town to show us how to get to her home and gave us great ideas for travel and food. Her place is situated in a great location for visiting many parts of Southern Italy and we did a range of car trips, resting in the garden, cooking fresh food and dining out - once with Louisa, and once in her home with family. Thank you so very much Louisa for your care, fun attitude and interesting conversations.

A lovely tranquil setting only a short drive from some great beaches, Carovigno and Ostuni.

‘Bella Terra’ is a wonderful place to unwind after a hard day sightseeing or lying on the beach. Set in a large garden with trees full of fruit to die for, it really is a mini oasis way from it all. The accomodaton includes a kitchen, dining and sitting area plus a bathroom and a double bedroom. Whilst the rooms are not particularly large, this is not a problem as long as the weather is OK because the garden is definitely the place to be. Our hostess, Louisa lives next door and was always on hand when required to offer help, advice and even a ‘spade for the beach’. Grazie Louisa, fino a la prossima volta!

A perfect choice for a first visit to Italy

The property was easy to find, situated in a quiet rural location, yet only five minutes from the sea (at Santa Sabina) or the local supermarket (at Carovigno). The accommodation was clean and provided all the facilities I needed, and the welcome pack of 'essentials' was much appreciated due to my late evening arrival. Sitting under the gazebo on the front patio for breakfast in the warm sunshine was idyllic, and coupled with walks along the seashore provided the 'chilling' time I was in need of after the stress earlier in the year. Louisa was the perfect host, providing information and advice to help the novice, which I am sure will bring me back in the future.

A great introduction to Puglia

Lovely stay at Bella Terra. Louisa is not only a lovely warm person she’s interesting and intuitive. Nothing is too much trouble...rare to find this these days. Louisa is also generous with her plums and figs when plentiful. When we arrived, early June, her garden was an abundance of fruits and flowers. Her Limoncello is the best we’ve tasted. Good location just a few minutes drive from historic Carovigno town and the beach and waterfront fish restaurants at Torre Santa Sabina. Also just 15 mins drive from Ostuni. We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 week stay.

About the host

Hosted by Louisa Hudson

Host profile image
Retired teacher and artist whose mother was from Carovigno. Fell in love with the property which I renovated. Love the countryside and closenesd to the sea only 3 km. It's a little peaceful Puglian oasis.
I am an artist and offer lessons in painting and mosaic making.

Why they chose this property

Wonderful sea views, typical Puglian countryside but not isolated, only 5 mins drive to Carovigno which has a lovely piazza and castle. Very close to the railway station for easy travel to Lecce, Bari, Polignano etc. Only 25 mins to Brindisi airport. Really friendly people and not over touristy. A great location from which to explore Puglia. The historical centre of Carovigno is lovely with many festivals in the summer including the famous flag throwing, musical concerts and food festivals. It's very family friendly.
Single travellers can roam about with safety with local people making you feel welcome

What makes this property unique

Bellaterra really is peaceful country retreat immersed in a typical Puglian garden of olive and fig trees. The focus is outdoor living to make the most of the fresh sea air.
I live nextdoor but very respectful of guests privacy with my own pool and garden. I am available should guests need me and I work hard to provide a comfortable stay for my guests. I provide a welcome pack of breakfast items, wine and fruit upon arrival . The main feature is outdoor living with a new rain proof large gazebo.All linen including beach towels. My cottage is also ideal for single travellers. Excellent WiFi.
