Villa perfecta
Situada cerca de Ostuni esta villa ha cumplido todos nuestros requisitos con habitaciones espaciosas ,piscina y muy tranquila.Destacar la amabilidad de Annie que ha hecho que nuestra estancia sea perfecta.Para acceder a la casa se pasa por un caminito de tierra estrecho si conduces una furgoneta de 8 plazas es difícil pero no imposible.Al estar en medio de la naturaleza hay mosquitos .Faltaria aire acondicionado en el comedor/cocina pq en las habitaciones si que hay.

Moderne ruime vakantiewoning
Op heuvel gelegen moderne villa met mooi gelegen zwembad. Pad naar villa is zeer smal en daardoor voor meeste autorijders zeer avontuurlijk. Annie de house manager is zeer hulpvaardig. Villa ligt dicht bij Ostuni voor restaurants, boodschappen en goede koffie.

Tolles Haus!
Wir (sieben Personen) sind mit zwei Tagen Verspätung aufgrund eines Streiks der italienischen Fluglotsen angekommen und wurden herzlich von Annie empfangen. Das Haus ist top eingerichtet, liegt in einer ruhigen Gegend und ist ein guter Ausgangspunkt für Ausflüge. Wir waren in Monopoli, Bari, Cisternino ( montags ist dort ein regionaler Markt), Lecce, am Ionischen Meer und in Matera (sehr zu empfehlen). Auch den Pool am Haus haben wir noch genutzt. Wir möchten Annie nochmals danken für Ihre vielen nützlichen Informationen. Sie war eine tolle Gastgeberin!

Lovely villa in Puglia located in the countryside among the hill towns of the Valle d’Itria
Casa Calandra more than lived up to our expectations - the photos don't do it justice! Annie the house manager made us so welcome and spent a lot of time explaining everything to make us feel at home and was immediately available to answer our queries and with tips about the locality etc. On the warmer sunny days we so much enjoyed alfresco lunchtime dining on the terrace beautifully located beside the open plan living and dining area with its view of the lovely hills and woods beyond - all made easy by the comprehensive range of high quality cooking equipment available. Ostuni, the nearest town with its amazing ‘centro storico’, supermarkets, shops restaurants and bars was only a 10 minute drive away. Other nearby historic and equally delightful towns located on the hills of the Itria Valley were also very accessible where we enjoyed a couple of wonderful meals in restaurants tucked away behind the walls of the historic centres of Celie Messapica and Martina Franca The coast with its lovely sandy beaches is only a short 20 minute drive away so we were able to take advantage of a warmer day to enjoy a picnic with a glass of the superb local red wine nettling in among the sand dunes close to a seaside nature reserve. We are really looking forward to further stay in the summer when we will be able to indulge in more intensive sun bathing not only beside the clear Adriatic Sea but at the villa and swimming in the beautiful pool with its delightfully planted setting above the terraces of olive trees, almond trees and ancient dry stone walls. The accommodation and facilities worked perfectly for us but would also work well for different combinations of couples, families and generations and we have no hesitation in recommending Casa Calandra to anyone wanting to spend a holiday in this unique region of Italy.
